Lets Play X-Com
« on: January 27, 2012, 09:04:01 am »



So we can resist raging against all the new attempts at remaking it.....
*Not including Xenonauts of course, which is the only real successor.


Difficulty 3/6 Veteran

Problems:

A) Where to place the base?
B) Sign up for X-Com to die destroy all aliens and win the game!
*No respawning, no unlimited ammo. Only pure X-Com terror.

I think Japan might be a nice place to start. Situated close to USA and Asia and i've never started there before!

Hawaii... Superhuman... No-reloads... 1 base...?  *puppy eyes*

At any rate, sign me in : Dick Mountainjoy.
Prefered skill : Throwing
Equipment  : All the grenades the world has to offer, laser rifle (explosive weapon later on? :O)
Behavior : Normal, with a twist : Auto-shot the walls with laser rifle, if no enemies are visible.

Name:Kilroy The Grand!
Prefered skill : psychokinesis! CRUSH THE XENOS WITH YOUR MIND!
Equipment  : Stun baton, proximity grenades
Behavior : A complete and utter coward, Hide him behind Dick Mountianjoy always


Also, I'd go with switzerland, since you can defend a lot of countries from there. I'd suggest a second base to go in AMERICA, and a third in china.

I'm in!

Base should be somewhere near water, so you don't have to investigate all UFOs!

I want a pistol and a stun rod!

Is there still room?

Name: HUNK
Prefered skill: Balanced character really.
Equipment: Just standard equipment, some extra ammo and grenades would be nice?
Behaviour: Doesn't give a rat's ass about his teammates as long as he can complete the mission.  If you know the guy I'm copying ( from the Resident Evil series ) you'll know what I'm talking about.

GOD DAMN IT NRDL.
NRDL will roll a die and decide how sadistic and insane he's feeling well you do.

Thanks so MUCH! 

First time being placed in an X-com game, if I die on the first mission ( or any other mission henceforth ), can I re-apply?
