Right thanks, I'll start this in a few days, in the meantime, VOLUNTEER!

[Burnt Pies]

You've never finished an X-Com before, you're playing on Superhuman and you're not abusing saves. This is going to be horrific. Sign me up!

Anja Galena, Sniper (Some sort of accurate, powerful Rifle. Doesn't like to get close to Aliens.)

[justinlee999]

I'll try to get you a sniper, but I can't guarantee that... ok?

[Burnt Pies]

Sounds good. Anyone with above average FA will be fine, the higher the better.

[justinlee999]

Note that I won't be firing anyone much except extremely low stats people.

Should I name my fodders? Or should I only name the stronger/higher rank ones?

[breadbocks]

Name: Codecimal the Prolonged
Role: Squaddie. Who keeps coming back. MUST have highest health possible in ALL iterations.

Make the fodders = Goons.

[Archangel]

All cannon fodder should be given the same name then numbered. The name should be something appropriate, like Cannon Fodder or Fragbait.

[justinlee999]

Alright thanks, but there isn't much interest here though, nevertheless I shall start this in around 2 days, possibly today, possibly not.

In the meanwhile, you guys should really volunteer to join.

[Phantom]

Hrm...
Name: Spirit
Role: Brave Sniper, Second in Command if possible. After all, the best officers are the ones that sit behind. If she is weak in Psionics/MC feel free to sack her due to 'emotional problems.'
Gender: Female
Bio: This is if Ghost was female. Except she's quieter, and more obedient.

[Nirur Torir]

Name them Redsuit #, and retire each number after its owner dies.

"Sir? Why has the army seen fit to change my name to 'Redsuit 582?'"
"Records error. You're supposed to be 583. 582 was killed in a tragic training accident involving a stun rod."

Spoiler: Journal Entry/Letter (click to show/hide)

Dear mom:
I was recently contacted by agents working for a top-level government aquatics department, apparently impressed by my thesis on the possibility of sapient life in the Mariana Trench. I shall need to sign an NDA, rendering me unable to say anything further on my work until my work is finished. I ship out to <REDACTED> in the morning, for a two week training program, following which I will be moved to <REDACTED> to <REDACTED> with <REDACTED>, whereupon <REDACTED>.

<REDACTED>

If you happen upon dad, tell him that me finding a job three weeks after graduating trumps him. He was wrong about Oceanography being useless. I'll show him wrong, and make you proud.

Gleefully yours,
Nirur

[justinlee999]

Well, due to the fact that everyone wants to be a sniper, I cannot guarantee you guys that position, I'll try to find a space for you though, but I won't go out of my way to find the perfect soldier.

Oh and I'll name my soldiers "meatbags", sound good?

[Phantom]

MEANWHILE, WITH MY LP...
Myself: Okay, juuust wait, I'm trying to get the update done...
ALI-UHNS!!!!11!!: GO, MY TENTACULAT SON!
Myself: Goddamn squid jellyfish motherf*ckers. I can never finish this mission, I can't even get back to the Triton.

[justinlee999]

lol, so... I'm getting scared right now, playing TFTD on superhuman, and me always savescumming, but this time not, and I've never finished the game...


DOESN'T LOOK GOOD...

Also Nirur, I take it that you want to volunteer?

[Phantom]

Believe me, the words 'Terror From The Deep' and 'Superhuman' make way for disaster. Hell, normal is hard to beat.

[Archangel]

Name: Immortal
Role: Breacher. And head of weapons research. Like Codecimal, and as his name implies, you just can't keep him down. MUST have highest Bravery possible in ALL iterations.
He's highly intelligent, utterly fearless, and never says anything more than is absolutely necessary.
