Sorry for the delay, everyone, my time is a scarce commodity these days (I'm getting married in...18 days). I'm hoping I'll get a chance to play this mission Wednesday.
Congratulations! Wish you all the best.

-- COMMANDER: Centurion, I want you to take point on this. Take our rookies here and show them the ropes. No dangerous stunts, no risks. Bring them back alive, that is your top priority.

Centurion: Si, Commander!

Selling off some junk to get enough money to do something. Not a bad haul!


Sadly, not enough Power for the Officer Training school, which is what I really want. We need more boots on the ground!


And the route to the Power column is blocked off. Bother. So we're excavating it out and we'll build a power plant once that is done.


Short update, but I'm very glad I got a chance to play for a bit. I've been wanting to do this for days!

Awesome, I'm glad you're back!  ;D
Anyways, solid run. Too bad we didn't get the meld, but I don't think we are in much of a need for it now.
Something to note - I was expecting Mathur to rank up into a sniper, after you gave him the shottie.  :)

Hehe. Well, there is still time for him to do that.






The sectoid is interrogated. It does not survive the experience. However, we have learned something rather interesting.

There is a link between the sectoids and the energy creatures. Dr. Vahlen would like us to put a priority on capturing one of the energy beings alive. Hopefully the next one will not be quite so resistant to the stun gun.




In any case we now have a research boost for any further beam weapons (lasers). That'll be handy.



What shall we research next? Lots of options open. I've defaulted us to Alien materials, since they're quick and a good thing to have just in case I accidentally advance time without going back to the research screen.

Feel free to ask if you have questions about any of it.

I think we should research the plasma pistol, personally.
If we go outfitting everything with laser cannons etc., it's just going to cost a lot more in the long run.
inb4 I regret these words as the team gets wiped out in a terror mission or something...

Yes, but you don't have to actually build any, which is what i meant.
