Nice job on that, especially making him into a robot, it would have been cooler if he got critically wounded in the mission and you brought him back bearly alive and then turned him into a robot but hey, you play the cards you're delt.

((Awesome, I just got Enemy Within too, and the first playthrough was very mean to me, lost like 10 dudes before I got lasers.

So are you using the "randomized training" option? I find it awesome, lets you get stuff like snipers with sentinel that can fire twice on overwatch, or I got Zhang with like EVERY defensive training ever, which is awesome. I then genemodded him with a second heart and adaptive bone marrow. He's pretty much invulnerable right now. Course it DOES give you crap stuff sometimes, especially with the second to last rank, because you have NO choice on that. Zhang got "revive" and he never uses medkits but oh well he's pretty much invincible already.))

Set a camera in this chokepoint and ask Steve to keep watch. Then start searching the area for whoever took the sensor and any signs of where they might have gone.

One of those motion sensors from Aliens would be really useful right now...

((Aliens-tech motion sensors are a silly device though. What kind of motion do they sense? Through what? How do they determine when something moves, and not them? Stuff like that. Motion sensors can only sense the motion of what they can detect, and when they can detect something moving across several concrete walls, steel doors, and half a football field's worth of corridors... perhaps having a camera based on the same tech could be more useful?))

((It probably senses vibrations, possibly coordinating with systems in the complex and certainly compensating for their vibrations by basically knowing that there should be vibrations there--presumably due to sensor'd shoes--and similarly for any machines in the base.
Frankly, it makes a lot more sense than the xenomorphs themselves.))

((Well, in the movie, they say it uses some sort of sonar and Doppler analysis if I remember correctly. Don't know if that  would work in real life though. Maybe if you had sensitive enough sensors, a powerful computer and a way to track the device's motion, like laser sensors or very sensitive G-sensors, it could be done.))

((Neat.  I picked up the base game a month or so ago, and am debating the xpac.  Curious to hear some B12ers opinions on it.

Hey, maybe you could get some of the sub-team leads in next!  Cough cough wink wink nudge nudge.))
