OpenXCOM thread

Its that time again.

Back into the depths with me.

Its fucking October, and I don't have ANY world coverage. I'm going to start building interception and radar bases. Lets name the first one shall we?

We'll cover the northern pacific a little more.

Actually, the Southern Pacific needs more coverage right now. Followed by the Mediterranian.

Did we have a thread yesterday commander? I think I missed it.

I recently found my old X-COM collection. And I couldn't be happier.

XCOM's Holiday Resort.

I don't think we did, I couldn't find one in the archives

Shiiit, I missed so much

Lilo and Tentaculat

No we did not.

Yesterday was kind of an.. odd day for me.

I was dragged into an actual Commanding role.

You guys actually saved the thread, good job. So.

What shall we do? What is in the works for us?

The Lobsters want my body.

We need snitching bases

l-lewd

So do the Aquatoids again.

Here's another snitching base.

name it lads.

No ayys allowed

They want to terrorise your deeps

Here we go, lets get some defenses up.

Oh and we can make Launcher Tanks.

Lets go have some fun.

Look at these fuckers. Oh I'm going to want this guy later.

This is too easy.

Certianly is a lot of them. Wow.

Bump

Eventually you will be able to mind control all of them.

Good thing we have MC then

I just did.

Why is MC so broken?

We gonna have a montage?

Full an utter control of a unit for an entire turn, refreshing their TU's, and without Line of Sight? Yeah.

Probably, I don't have many flying suits that can handle the Lobstermen's claws, so I'm going to have to give them dart pistols.

Also, the fact they can eat a Football and LIVE.

And then there's this guy.

Bump: Episode 2

How did so many lobsters manage to fit inside of such a small sub?

Alright so. What are we going to do with these rabble rousers?

I say we bring them back to base...
and boil them.

Lets poke a few holes in em first.

Time to grind for AP.

Wonder how his Sphere Grid looks.

Is it time for the grinding game again?

For maybe two turns, then I'm stunning him and going home.

See? Not that long.

ez dosh
Lobstermen are you even trying?

Mostly to get some more ACC, PSI, and HP.

I think now I can tackle bases.

Are you sure commander? There are brains in there.

You tell me.

Lobsters are making another base soon.

Shall we find out if we can? If not I'll abort again.

No pain no gain

Alright, same thing as before, we wait a turn before even OPENING this door.

And this is what I see.

Certianly have me surrounded.

Free mind control bait desu

I can MC this.

YOU GET A BLASTER LAUNCHER

AND YOU GET A BLASTER LAUNCHER..

wtf is that thing

AND YOU GET A BLASTER LAUNCHER

Flying Reaper.

>Flying Reaper.
So basically it's harmless?

When everyone has a blaster launcher, just nuke everything.

Today's mission theme is youtube.com/watch?v=yBISfv-6hfo

Hey look at what I found.

Looks like someone who needs a hardcore mind controlling.

Is mind control the grand solution to most of your problems now? I don't know enough of the older XCOM's.

Pretty accurate.

Pretty much. I couldn't get the Tentacault, so I drilled its face in.

Love being able to do this.

Have we trivialised TFTD yet commander?

>in all of our failed TFTD runs all we needed to do was just rush MC.

Not yet. But soon.

With everything panicking and going crazy, I may have nothing left to MC.

MC was a mistake

>implying T'leth won't butt fuck us with Tentaculats hiding in the 1 square we didn't check and zonbifying like 4 dudes in 1 turn

I still can't get these guys.

So I nuke it instead.

Wow. I did it.

Now to hope we dont get screwed by tentaculats in close quarters

I have Seven blasters now.

SEVEN FUCKIN FOOTBALL LAUNCHERS.

You ready to capture a Commander?

>inb4 total party wipe

I hope not. GOing to take it slow.

Well, as slow as necessary.

Not having any of this.

Jesus christ this place is huge.
WHY AM I HERE AGAIN?

To capture a commander?

>WHY AM I HERE AGAIN?
You would rather the aliens take root on our fair planet?

There existence is sin enough, wipe them out.

>tfw no TOTD xpac for nu-XCOM or XCOM 2

So many tight corridors.

Good thing our friends the lobstermen are here to help us scope this place out

What bothers me is the rather lack of Tentacaults seen so far.

I swear, if that post-credit teaser was just a cocktease.

Isnt it Tentaculats

>Just want to battle alien creatures of the deep with my xcom 2 squad
Someday.

GUESS WHO I FOUND!

2:15

A quarter to two.
1:45

Leave the tank?

b-but what about destroying the base commander?

And try to kill all these Lobsters?

Let alone try to find the Device and leave?

Why not? Don't we have mind control?

I took a small hunch and threw a football into here, I think that was the device, Pretty sure.
