I'm not too sure whether you're suggesting stationing Interceptors as airborne radars, but if you are, Skyrangers would work much better, because of their increased fuel capacity.
I wasn't, though using Skyrangers as AWACS is a damn good idea now you mention it. I was suggesting that you build three or four little bases with nothing but a Hyperwave Decoder, and maybe living quarters and stores for a token guard force, to extend your coverage and give you advance warning of an incoming UFO. Hawaii, the Cape Coast and Iceland are good places to build such installations.

I think Toady's confusing interface better simulates the experience of a bunch of disorganised drunken dwarves running a fort.

Are you still accepting recruits? If so, I'd be happy to be a grunt.

Holy crap, why did I not start watching One Punch Man earlier? This is the best thing.

You always need more cannon fodder recruits.

If you have to go in that territory, I would suggest the only  fitting thing.

Somewhere, the top officials of every major military force in the world, including already successful GDI and the soon to be useful HECU Combat Marines are yelling at X-Com top brass right now.

No, they're at my house, negotiating the royalties paid to use my name (and manhood) in the names of their bases.

Sometime in an alternate future, I'm a middle class structural engineer with Acanthus being a poor Filipino rice farmer that constantly yells at carabaos when angry.
