Alright, but I think there were only (genderless and cloned) sectoids in the first alien war, with the hybrids being a result of genetic experiments.

That's just silly. I suppose you're going to tell me they had cut up humans as trophies too?

[andrea]

quite possible actually.

[CJ1145]

Plasma sword and plasma pistol for me, please. Dual-wielding badass FTW.

Also, if no one else wants to name them, could you collectively call all the unnamed hoverbikes The Gnat Brigade?

[zchris13]

Gnat 1, Gnat 2, Gnat 3, The Fly, The Flee, yada yada yada.

You're right, but why let that stop the humor?

Besides, who says the hybrids know this?  The male version of the hybrid should be particularly arrogant and ignorant stupid Not Easily Distracted By Little Things Such As The Facts.

EDIT: And the female version is a blantant liar.  I'll take what I can get, but hoping the RNG rolls 'male' (and I'm unlikely the only one).

[LegoLord]

Alrighty!  I'll grab an android, named after me.  He built a hoverbike out of LEGOs [took one of the hoverbikes] and named it the Legomobile.  He is made of LEGOs, and wields whatever the best sword available is along with a machine gun.  Preferably, he should wear Marsec armour or the next thing up/available (mobility-wise; I just want him to fly).

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

After returning from the mission, I sat down at my desk to plan out new squad and equipment assignments. All soldiers should carry at least an AP and stun grenade, even if they would rather not use them.

That's as far as I got before another alarm siren started. We're really going to have to go after security footage better. This one was at a mall. Most of the soldiers were still suited up, so I ordered them back into the APC. Two missions in a fifteen minute timespan during the night is probably bad for morale, but everybody else was still injured.


There were two main elevator shafts. Squads two and three would cover them, while my aerial assault squad would harass the aliens from above.


Zangi: "There's a popper up there."


Crazy Mutant Lady: "I've sighted an anthropod."
Bug: "Anthropod?"
Crazy Mutant Lady: "The biochemsists named it such."
Bug: "Ah. Guess they got tired of call them 'those blue, human-shaped aliens.'"


Bug: "Another one. Hey, why am I getting cold chills down my spine?"
Metal Militia: <Snickering>
Bug: "Hey, stop that!"


Bug: "I think it shot a civilian. Kill it!" (They usually don't bother targeting them.)


Zangi: "The popper's coming, fire!"



Zangi: "I like watching their explosions when they're not near us."


Dougan: "Anthropods dead. Brainsuckers have started coming."


Bug: "Haha, all brainsuckers dead. Area secure."


Nirur Torir: "We're in position. Two spitters down; one nicked my arm."


Nirur Torir: "Spartan, stay here and take potshots at it."


Nirur Torir: "It's not going down. I'll go in and drop a grenade on it."


Metal Militia: "Multiworms are leaving the building."


Nirur Torir: "That didn't work. I'll just use a stun grenade."


Zangi: "Mind moving in to support us, squad 2?"
Bug: "Roger that! Oh, I love this job."


Nirur Torir: "Multiworm stunned. We'll provide cover fire from up here."



Bug: "They went pop. Let's move in and finish the hyperworms."


Bug: "Arrg, they move fast. One got me, but I think I'll be okay."


Bug: "Crazy Mutant Lady ... I, l- ... love you. Al-" <cough cough> "Always have." He died there. We lost a good man.
Crazy Mutant Lady: ". . ."


Jimmybob X-1: "DIE! DIE! DIE!"


Jimmybob X-1: "Unseen hyperworm killed. Systems error: Neural-simulator malfunction detected. Shutting down."


Operator: "Scans show that you're all clear."


Nirur Torir: "Bah. Somebody patch the android up before it breaks."

That's the second soldier. The aliens will pay.

GIVE ME A GRENADE LAUNCHER, IT'S TOO HARD TO NOT BLOW THINGS UP WHEN I SHOOT AT OTHER THINGS WITH THIS ENORMOUS GUN I HAVE.  ALL NATURAL.

[Nirur Torir]

Aiee! Another ToonyMan!

There is no grenade launcher. The Minilauncher fires rockets.

[zchris13]

Are they smaller than a rocket? Yes? Then it's a grenade launcher.  Or a boom-dart.  Either/or.

thats being sig'd

[CJ1145]

Hmm. Lack of anything from John in a while. I thought he was Squad 2's leader? Or did he die or get injured?

[zchris13]

It's not spelled "siged", it's "sig'd".

[Keita]

thanks

[DFNewb]

Well bug died. Do you still have his equipment? was he using the lawpistols or the plasma guns? Well if he was using the lawpistols can I get a second guy who uses the exact same equip as bug? Armour and guns and all.

Name: Insect
Equipment: Same as bug. NO PLASMA GUNS
History: Insect's life-long hero was bug and now he wishes to avenge him and even surpass him in X-Com. He uses the exact same equipment to show that he can do a better job with the same guys and because he wishes to be more like bug.

Likes to charge in with both guns blazing taking out all the aliens with him. He is not really a team player. If he gets injured he will keep on fighting until the end. Also has a fetish for the Sectoids of the first war from pictures from textbooks and also likes "Half-breeds". Will try to succeed with mutant lady were bug failed.
