Can I have a dorf sacrifice to the blood god cannon fodder rookie next time one is available?  If possible I would prefer a sniper, but any is preferable

If we don't fuck up you'll be slotted into the sergeant sniper reward, as IIRC everyone else is dorfed and there are no rookies remaining.

Sweet, bullet swarm. One of the best low level abilities in the game!

Espicially once you upgrade them with Titan armor and a plasma gun.  I mainly put them somewhere, and expect them to tie up a good portion of the enemy force as my assualts get into a better position.

Sometimes I am so tempted to do an LP like this to show off a million ways to fail.  Looking good so far and if you got a spare soldier at any point that I could be named that would be sweet.

Yeah. I mean, I could just do it in Ironman Classic, but I would probably manage to beat that, and then where are we when I'm in the mood for a second season?

"Oh, I kicked a load of alien ass without too much trouble? Want to watch me do it again?" Yawn.

This way I can keep coming back to the same well over and over without it going stale, because X-COM will never run out of ways to fuck you over on the hardest difficulty.  :P


I have to say, though, Ravenna really turned into Rambo, especially at the end with the Outsider. That bit with the Floaters was pure luck, though, that both Kansa and she would hit for that much damage with their reaction fire. That could have gone much worse if we couldn't have killed all of them before they got a turn.

If there is one brave soul who is willing to be bear the name of Birdwig into battle, than I humbly request that he be named as such. Maybe, if we're lucky he won't die on the day before he retires!

Now I just have to see if I last 2 missions before dying again.

I'm happy she's a Heavy. They're always my favorites, precisely because of moments like that. There's just something so satisfying about seeing them blow away an alien with the heavy weapons that you don't get with the other classes.

Can I have a person if this is still alive?

Funding rebels because seriously, fuck those guys.
