MaxClone1 pops his head into the Salvage Chief's office, but sees that the Chief isn't in. Instead, he stuffs 400 copies of a requisition form for grenades, high explosives, and a gas cannon with HE rounds into the Chief's mailbox, under the door, and in the coffee supply cabinet. Before leaving, he steals all the dry creamer.

MaxClone1 abruptly stops as he was about to turn a corner, finding a large knife pointed at his chest.

"Esto es un cuchillo. Comprendido, amigo?

"Heh"

"It will be bad if the squad can no cream their coffee. Worse, the Commander."

"Si, comprende, seņor. I'll just take my share, then."

The Maxclone puts all but a handful of the creamers back. Eyeing Cesar warily, he really wished he didn't have to requisition that gun.

Nah, it was more about Cesare shouting "Son of a whore!" in spanish before tasing that alien.

Cesare poured himself a small cup of black coffee, then closed up the supply cabinet and left.

Do stunned aliens get automatically sent to containment? Or do you have to give orders to haul them back to the sub first?

I'l keep that in mind. Feedback is always good.

If you don't ever kill them, stunned aliens will either wake up later in a mission or, if the mission ends while they are stunned, they will be automatically transported to an alien containment. If you have one on the Triton with you when you abort, I believe it will be taken back to base with you. When the alien containment is built, we'll need to focus more on capturing aliens than we do simply killing them.

Hmm, is base on the sea floor, or under it?

Judging by the intro, it is built above the sea floor.

Oh, TFTD vets: When do you usually expand to a new base?

It's a tough call. But keep this in mind. Your sonar and sub range is pitifully low. You are actually missing many UFOs that are simply out of range (you can see this in the statistics area). I use the first month's income to plop down a new base, complete with sonar and a barracuda of it's own. After that it's a toss up and depends on how well you're doing.
