Scamper balanced is out, health is downed, intel rumors are in. But not as cool as the previous rumor.
Two days later, bam! 50% off the next region contacted. Lets head to New Indonesia, get that facility available. Slightly later, the shadow chamber is now avialable. Also, viper and shieldbearer autopsies are now instant, lets get those done. Mostly from the xcom energy shields mod, we now have an energy shield grenade, and these things unlocked in the proving grounds: Group shield generator, personal shield generator, experimental armor. We also have the battlefield medicine project unlocked from the viper.
We also could potentially get us our own sneks. But in the meantime, Battlefield medicine is added to the proving grounds queue, and we head off to finish the powered armor research the black market started. It will be ours in a week.
As soon as we get to the geoscape the game tells us the facility we're looking for now has an extra avatar project dot. Could be worth it now, it'll take three whole dots out from the tracker.
Two days and one generic avatar progress tick later, the psi lab is complete. Wizard first, and the engineer goes to the proving grounds.
A tricky choice, whether to let them have armor or to allow berserker packs.
Oi, I was busy with our supply drop! I suppose I'll make the spider suits and a couple more exos then, we can upgrade them later. Caroline gets Null Lance, Maximum gets Shredder. Kaladin gets the PCS: Adv. Agility. I also pick up our other Squad Size upgrade from the gts. Athing and Furtukan get the new exo suits.
Not on screen: Preacher, Flea, Maximum, Cowboy, Flockin.
Op Moon Slap means we could either try to moon the target into submission, or just slap them instead. I don't think we're allowed to do the former though, so we'll just have to do the latter.
Muton Centurion spotted.
Grapple Further is nice.
Lol. I think I'll let Pies try it instead once we're ready, since this is clearly not a challenge to Cypher.
Target spotted. With some decent guards too.
We accidentally some loot here, but oh well.
Jopax tears the armor to pieces, and Kaos assassinates the centurion.
Mass Overwatch is still tricky to screenshot, much less pin down who actually killed what. Pies climbs up and finishes off the MEC with combat protocol, Caroline moves forward.
Furtukan moves into not the greatest position, but takes out the sentinel and his flankers will die of poison.
We've got company.
Yes, Kaos. I certainly am impressed yet, what with you getting a crit for 10 on lightning hands. Furtukan slaps the target, leaving Kaos open to fanfire without killing the target. He's got some ridiculous 89% crit chance on the two flanked vipers.
Caroline KOs the surviving muton with soulfire. Big bird picks up some loot: Advent lockbox, hair trigger, PCS: Agility, PCS: Superior Focus.
Well, it was worth a shot. Reinforcements behind us now.
Not the best screenshots, but it is what it is.
Even more reinforcements incoming onto a roof across from the evac roof. Ann grapples to the roof Kaos went to first.
And continues to succeed at Deadeye shots. Furtukan picks up our target, and Big Bird picks up the other loot: Elerium core x3, advent lockbox x3, adv stock.
Urist flanks the remaining stun lancer.
Could be worse.
Promotion get! And then Kaos moves over a square into unflanked cover thanks to DFA.
I'm gonna assume it was the EXO suit that let you carry them up that pipe without dropping them.
XCOM: For when blowing up the entire front of the building to hurt one enemy and kill another with gravity is not unusual.
Today is just not Pies day for hacking.
That enemy only had 1 hp left, you didn't need to crit Maximum! (Good to know grenade crit chance applies to rockets though.)
Rince Storm is apparently not to be outdone in the over-crit department.
Successful chain shot? Yep. Promotion? Also yep.
This was probably unnecessary, but I
like rockets! Also its Athing getting a crit rocket.
Promotions: Maj. Bullets, Colonel Urist 'Cypher' Imiknorris (AWC ability: Deep Cover), Colonel Rince 'Funky' Storm, Maj Kaos (got Steady Hands), Maj. Big Bird (got Draw Fire)
I add Advanced Modular Weapons to the proving grounds queue with our new supplies, and the next rumor is also supplies. But first, we have a supply drop to finish.
And if you guys
really wanted me to, I could see if I could add in attrition mode's unlimited reinforcements, if it agrees with being mid-campaign. Not the limited ammo though.
