I volunteer Captain Bloodbeard, as he needs some experience in combat.

[Powder Miner]

Lemme take that fourth slot.

[Worldmaster27]

I'll go!
Cool, people actually want to save me!

[Erils]

I would volunteer but the slots seem to all be taken. Maybe the next mission.

[Mephansteras]

I actually ran the mission and I sent you along so we'd have some rocket/medkit support. Haven't had a chance to do the write-up yet, hopefully tonight.

Okay that's fine. Didn't realize.

Zu meine Liebchen,

Hello again darling. How are you? I am doing well, despite some minor injuries. I got a little banged up on our last deployment. Now the doctors will not leave me alone. "Here take this." or "Herr Krauss, don't touch that monitor." It's all very irritating. They do not practice medicine like they do in Germany. Every 8 hours they come in and jab me with steroids to promote tissue growth for what is but a tiny scratch. Often times, I sit in smelly tiny room, bashing my head on wall from boredom and eating the kuchen from your last care package. It makes me feel fat.

I begged them to let me on next mission, but the doctors only frowned. The doctors are always frowning. I do not like the doctors. I hear rumors about them. They say that they are working on technology to build a better man. They want to replace our eyes and give us new skin to create a stronger, more efficient soldier. The idea is crazy and I tell them so. They say to me, "Herr Krauss, stop being so paranoid. Lay down and get your rest."

Respectfully, I tell them to shove it. Then they frown. Hah! I have said it once before and I will say it again. I do not like these doctors. The day when I let of this medical ward will be a great day indeed.

Now; I have spoken too much on doctors and I am irritated. Let me change the subject. I recall that you and Franz will be going to be picking up Oma soon. I am glad that you are taking care of your mother darling during these trying times, but please mind the roads. The world has gone mad, and I cannot bear the thought of losing you and Franz. I don't say it enough; you are the world to me. I hope you know that.

I try to go on every mission I can. They see how hard I fight and they've given me some promotions accordingly. The XCOMM Commander trusts me enough now that he let me lead another crew into battle. I thank Gott im Himmel there were no casualties on that mission. Now they call me Sergeant Krauss. It is a good title.

However, I have been writing far too long. The doctors are waiting for me to finish so that they can administer another a shot. Take care my love. You are both in my thoughts and prayers.

Sincerely,

Your Birdvig

P:S: I forgot to mention, the men have taken to calling me "Doc" Krauss. I do not understand them. They know I hate doctors. Regardless, it has nice ring to it. I'll keep it. The real Doctor is angry now. I say there is special place in hell for him. He frowned.

[Remalle]

I'd like to request a soldier, please.  Make me a laser rifle-wielding assault with (if possible) low aim, and make me look as much like an Imperial Stormtrooper as possible.

I don't have any unclaimed Assaults at the moment, but I'll give you one when I can.

[GiglameshDespair]

So, write up soon?

[Mephansteras]

So, write up soon?

I'm hoping tonight. I've been rather busy the past few days.

[Mephansteras]

Really sorry, guys, this week has been much too busy and I'm leaving on vacation for a week. I'll have to get this back up and running when I get back.

[Yoink]

That's alright. Have fun!

[Solarflare]

I sign up then I guess.

Gender: Male
Nationality: IDC much.
Appearance:Give him a helmet, all white gear.
Preferred Class: Any.
Preferred Weapon: Mostly all weapons
Preferred Equipment: Medkit
Preferred Tactics: Very quiet and cautious in combat, but not afraid to step up for fellow teammates.

[Mephansteras]

So...sorry about letting this die. I got too busy, and the last mission was horrible. Pretty much everyone died due to Exalt getting lucky shots in and a panic spiral shutting down the team for a turn. Trying to get back into it after a two month break proved to be impossible.


However, I've been playing the Long War mod for a bit now and I'm getting back into XCom. What would people think about me starting up a new LP of Long War?
