Luckily there was a receipt.

So alien revision phase is layered with XCOM intercept phase. Do the revisions have any effect on deployed alien units?

Also, Q from me in game thread GM.

They're Shrödingers revisions. If you would have noticed the effect, they're delayed. If you haven't seen it yet, it applies.

I'm not really happy with this approach, but the game must go on.

So, vote status, humans? Because we're ready.

I have to say, I like this brisk pace we have here.

I think it was a brave approach to asymmetric gameplay, in terms of that.

So, how you doing, XCOM? We see you have taken the gifts of the Elders and turned them into some sort of railgun. Children playing with forces they do not understand; don't you know people get hurt that way? If you surrender, we shall teach you properly.

I would like to thank our Xcom enemies for giving us time to plan for every single possibility next turn and this turn. It was very kind of you to remain so slow and disunified to allow us to consider every possibility so we might have a very very flexible plan that considers every possibility, even things beyond the impossible. Now, do please finish up soon. There is only so much planning we can do before we have every possible outcome of every turn in this war nailed down.

But seriously, hurry it up. XCOM is supposed to react rapidly to alien threats, not dither endlessly.

What are the XCOM players? Are we the council? A sub 'command' council?

You should really look to the wilderness for your stealth ideas, it has been doing it much longer than you have after all. Take squids for example, that ink trick works pretty well, and in water too! So you just sneak into the dam upsteam, dump several megatons of distressed squid into it, then break the dam. Boom, you suddenly have enough water-proof stealth for a whole city!
