Lost a dude to a brainsucker, and then he got crushed by a falling piece chunk of the building caused by stray fire.

Haven't figured how to set shit on fire yet. How do?
I'm pretty sure by "stray fire" he means stray weapon fire.

Unknown to most but the insane and the mystics, Tarran is actually Earth itself, as Earth is sentient like that planet in Avatar. Originally Earth used names such as Terra on the internet, but to protect it's identity it changed letters, now becoming the Tarran you know today.
Quote from: Ze Spy
Tarran has the "Tarran Bug", a bug which causes the affected character to repeatedly hit teammates while dual-wielding instead of whatever the hell he is shooting at.

Use Incendiary Grenades or Ammunition for the Autocannon or Rocket launcher/Mini Launcher to start fires.

I've had missions where I've just used one IN Autocannon for everything. Absolutely hilarious, but wins you no friends.

Heavy cannons, heavy launchers, incendiary ammo, incendiary rockets, Diablo incendiary grenades.  Hard to use on the aliens though.  Sure they can be effective.  But whoever owns the building will be pissed.  Fun to go nuts with them in the cult building raids though. 

The last few cultists holed up in the basement, hearing the armored footsteps of the x-com agents down the hall as they slowly sweep the basements, the doors on each side only lead to raging inferno as the entire upper area is engulfed in flames set by the soldiers after they had looted everything of value...  Even though the building is in flames they hear the whirring of the marsec made flying suits as the soldiers patrol above, searching for any foolish enough to try to brave the flames to escape, ready to gun down those who nearly do... there is no hope, only lasery, or firey death.

Only problem is, doesn't the fire damage and even destroy the loot dropped?

Centration. Similar to Spacestation 13, but in 3D and first-person. Sounds damn awesome.

That's why you grab the psyclones and check the bodies for valuables before dropping the timed nades and going full auto with the autocannons.  I usually have one fast guy wearing only a breastplate with a belt full of incendiary grenades running around the cleared rooms collecting loot from bodies and psyclones running back to drop them in a safe spot that I take care not to burninate with the holy flames of justice.  I do lose a little bit of loot when they decide to wander into burning rooms and die, but it is worth it in my mind.

Really does terrible things to the cult's money numbers, and incendiary stuff is hard to run out of when you don't use it for 80% of your missions.

I raided the shrine of Valor with a robust 7-man-and-a-mouse team, but no magic weapons and few spell components.

The gargoyle priest was immune to normal, non-magic weapon. My team wasn't immune to his fireballs and his paralysis spells. The Avatar didn't even manage to flee the battlefield

Next time I raid this shrine, I will be so loaded in attack spells and components it will be spell-mageddon...

Unfair event caused a single artillery round, killing most of my guys and taking out my 20mm AAA. Only Sarge and my top XP guy were left, everyone else was running or dead. Then a Flak-Panzer blitz came a wave later.

I haven't figured out how to actually pick up items yet... I know how (inventory) in XCOM: UFO Defense, but I can't seem to figure how to pick shit up in Apocalypse. I'm about to start a new game, sell all my cars, buy planes, keep my APC cause it holds an entire squad, and maybe buy some of those fast bikes and stick missile launchers on them for UFO defense. This is my 4th playthrough, and I'm actually having !!FUN!! while dying :)

Minecraft, he probably didn't post the game since it's fairly well-known.
