After consulting with the head of Engineering, Dr. Shen, we've set up a plan to expand out the base a bit. We'll need more satellite uplinks if we're to fully protect Africa from the aliens.
I also spoke with Dr. Valhlen, and the two of us agreed to begin research into the alien weapons fragments. Hopefully we can improve our weapons capabilities a bit.
A few days later our satellites track a small UFO inbound over Afica
Sadly it, and another that showed up shortly afterwards, proved to be too difficult for our fighters to keep up with. We damaged them heavily and drove them off, but our own fighters are in bad shape as well. We may wish to consider added a few more planes to the Roster.
A few more soldiers have come to my attention. I look forward to seeing them in action!
And, as if on cue, the aliens have begun to attack Egypt! I order the soldiers to prep for battle:
[spoiler=Bloody Father]
The troops set down on the edge of some docks. We see evidence of alien activity, but no contacts yet.
Sounds of activity alert the troops
And alien Drones are spotted shortly afterwards!
Our soldiers ready their weapons to attack as the drones move in, but the shots miss. Fortunately, so do the alien attacks.
Raven takes one out with a well placed shot, but we're unable to take the other out before it moves to flank her.
Max finally manages to down it, and squad reloads and regroups before exploring the rest of the docks.
More Drones are soon spotted.
A well placed AP grenade destroys one and damages the other two
And Raven proves her worth yet again by taking out one trying to flank her position
Max takes a shot despite Krauss' protective smoke screen
And Rickenbacker takes out his attacker at close range
We heal up, reload, and press onwards. We can hear more aliens out there...somewhere
We find two of the little grey guys riflng through an office. No idea what they're looking for, but the troops move forward to engage. Cautiously.
We trade shots, but Max takes a nasty hit from green plasma.
Raven moves up and stuns them with a Flashbang while the rest of the troops move up.
Dazed, the aliens are unable to aim well and the troops managed to move without incident.
Rickenbacker gets in another well placed shot and takes out the one hiding inside the office
While Krauss moves up and gets an easy kill on the final alien
