BURN THE 'U'!!!

*Ahem*

And here I thought we were friends...

We are. It is just that you cannot deny my existence.

How could I have doubted you.  We're an excellent pair.

Serious, why did I never notice that coincidence?

Anyway, moar XCOM!  Don't make me start an Apocalypse Let's Play.  I hated that game.

[Mulch Diggums]

Pand, next time you can, Give mulch Lots of grenades. He has a good throwing arm, after all. Lots of them.

[Boksi]

Give me a fast guy, named Hrafna-Floki, and make him a scout. A laser pistol, electroflares and possibly grenades.

[Mephansteras]

I'll join!

This time I'll take a Scout, give him a pistol and a motion scanner. High action points, if possible. Oh, and if it's a night mission he carries lots of flares to chuck around so our heavy weapons guys can see where to shoot. 

You can never have too many scouts...they just don't last long.

Madness ensues later, Casualties in first page, story at 9....

You do realize that two laser rifles is actually a handicap, don't you?

[neo1096]

Bwahahahahaha

[Mulch Diggums]

Are they realy? why?

[Mephansteras]

Firing any two-handed weapon while something is held in the off hand (another weapon, a grenade, a scanner, whatever) gives you a penalty to your accuracy. Which makes sense.

Of the guns, only pistols are one-handed, I think. And maybe small launchers.

Holding two laser weapons is particularly silly, since you don't have ammo concerns. My scouts often have two pistols at the beginning and end of the game, since normal pistols and plasma pistols use ammo. Having a second pistol lets you keep firing when one runs out of ammo. Since that's not an issue with laser pistols, you're free to use the other hand for secondary items. My medics and scanner-scouts tend to keep laser pistols even later in the game for that very reason.

[Gunner-Chan]

I cheat death yet again, too bad for the poor bastards that get to go home in brown paper bags.

I will avenge you brave comrades!

[Devath]

I'll get in. Let him be Jeeroy Lenkins, and make him carry a close combat weapon. Barring that, give him explosives. Lots and lots of explosives.

[Pandarsenic]

Mephan has it right. That's why I gave Okenido a Laser Pistol and a stun rod (you'll see that in a bit).
SniperJoe: Dude, you are an epic door opener with a far better hit ratio than your accuracy can justify. You started with 41 accuracy. I think you may have the most kills.
Devath: Awesome

Guys, mission leadup and report will have to wait until after school stuff, meaning it may be as far as Thursday before you see how Aqizzar died.

I assume gloriously.  Or stupidly, due to friendly fire, or everybody having crap reaction stats.  But I'm going with gloriously.
