After the last mission were we rescued a Sgt. Javier 'Hulk' Sousa from a bridge in mexico he joined us. Everyone survived Rookie Myke Mykel almost killed Sgt. Dan 'Nova' Higgins.

[Summers]

Omega is the best nickname.

[Gazz]

Johhny Omega Summers does sort of work.

And there's a certain irony to me and Sousa being the heavies.

[Monkey D. Lars]

Maybe I will also make a diary with Xcom but If i will do it. I will play on either classic or impossible.

Omega does rock as a nickname.

I've named my team after wrestlers. In my second mission, Tajiri was poisoned, paniced, and shot Molly Holly in the head.

Savio Vega and Sherri Martel are my most experienced soldiers so far.

RIP Nerf, Hughes, Steeb & Pris. Not the most experienced bunch, and Sara was unlucky to die. A whole got blasted in a wall next to her, which gave a Muton a free shot to finish her off. If that wall stayed up, she'da survived the mission. Steeb went out a hero, after weakening the herd of Muton's as much as he could.

I really am enjoying this game. Its thoroughly entertaining.

[Toe]

Do you get more engineers from missions?

[Your Mom]

Do you get more engineers from missions?

You can. Sometimes the reward is 4 engineers

[SRN]

Someone buy this game for me.

I lost an entire team assaulting an alien base. Luckily, a few of my skilled team members were healing up and weren't their to get massacred.

Nevermind. I tried again, and the rest of my team got murdered. I now only have 3 soldiers to respond to an abduction with while my new recruits arrive. Naming them after wrestlers isn't working, so now my team in McNulty, Greggs, and Bunk Moreland.

I'd be okay if all the aliens were based on Rampage Jackson.

[TKz]

Man I forgot how many troops you lose at the start. I've only lost one or two very rarely lately. I do play uber carefully and have the best armor and weapons in the game though.
