Since I got magnetic weapons, basic armor, and flashbangs/mimics, things have been kinda... looking up. No one died on the last mission!
including aliens or advent, but still
This is weird, though. People are actually surviving. I'm starting to notice their codenames.
Keeping in mind I have 31 dead scrubs in July...
But I have a *Captain* now! A support even. Yeah she had most of the rank when I hired her, but she's really turned out well. Not like those dipshit snipers I blew like 400 resources on.
Except that's the best part, I have a "hero" of each class. Someone I kept expecting to die, then got confused when they didn't die, and now I've... shit, I've gotten attached. Hell, they even have different personalities!
Lt Ye (Black Widow) was the first, YET ANOTHER sniper. Of the three, she survived. Maybe because she carried the dragon rounds. I haven't sprung for proper gauss sniper rifles, but she's a pistol specialist so it's all good. Yeaaaah she probably hates me. (She's twitchy, which seems right for a pistoleer).
Then came Lt Daly (Wildling). This guy. Ranger, so even more death-prone than the pistoleers. Yet, he survived. And survived. Even dove out of cover to finish off a shieldbearer with his sword, and avoided the enemy fire. Ironically he's a uptight, professional soldier. The only one standing at attention. He's a scout specialist now, because I want him to actually survive. (Oh and he got shredder
)
We hired Cpt Semyenova (Ripcord). She's the
support specialist. She kinda sucks at hacking, but the heals are welcome. And like any good support, she's surprisingly good at killing the enemy before they can hurt her patients. She's sarcastic and easy-going.
I have no idea when we got Thunder. I had a lot of grenadiers. She's the one who survived. She doesn't talk much. She's seen some shit.
