Okay well I finally put together a solid carapace and titan armour squad, all with laser weaponry, with the best skills and equipment the XCOM project could provide.
Cpt Kador "Pitbull" Locke was killed instantaneously when a mysterious alien cybernetic disk atomised him in a single volley, previously in battle he had saved his comrade Cpt Callie "Pixie" Ryan and Lt Artyom "Moose" Lebdev from a vicious Muton attack, dodging through enemy fire to blow the mosters head off with a single Scattered Laser blast.
Unfortunately his sacrifice was in vain, in attempting to reposition the Heavy Laser Lt Lebdev was shot in the guts by a hidden Muton, but not before he killed two drones in consecurtive reaction volleys.
Cpl Alessandro Petrachi was killed in action, torn apart by a Cryssalid before anyone knew what was happening.
However bravely the squad fought on downing the Cyber Disk, Muton's and Cryssalid.
Sq Kostya Urlav was promoted for gallentry, single handedly shooting the Cyberdisk down. Lt Michael "Emo" Morel was wounded in action, caught in a brutal crossfire he defied all odds and brought down a Muton flanking him with a precise Laser Sniper Rifle headshot. Cpt Callie "Pixie" Ryan attended a short military funeral for her mentor Cpt Locke, and was subsequently placed in charge of the XCOM project.
She is now the worlds only hope of survival.
((Oh and for some reason in this game the name Satja is cursed and practically a death sentence, she died in my initial play through as a medic, was gravely wounded in this play through as a sniper, and died two missions prior to this one poisoned))

Deployed to combat the Alien threat in Leeds, United Kingdom, XCOM squad bravo encountered stiff resistance from the extra terrestrial forces, who deployed in greater numbers previously encountered by our field operatives in the past.
Sq Satja Askarin Sq Galm Fae Sq Demel Derpovsky Sq Maximia Beflas
Were deployed to counter the alien threat.
Galm showed his talents as a support operative mid mission, displaying unshakable will, and solid suppressive and covering fire abilities. Satja was identified for sniper candidacy as her infallible aim was enough to ensure the squad made it in the dying minutes of the conflict. Demel Derpovsky showed an unfortunate tendency to break under consistent fire, unloading a magazine at fellow rookie Satja, wounding her, and finally at the end of the match being severly wounded by Light Plasma rifle fire. He survived however and his wounds are teaching us about the alien menace. Maximia Beflas was listed as KIA, killed by an alien survivor of a grenade attack on and entrenched position. Her cover was stripped away, and finally her life taken by the invaders.
Reports showed UFO activity in the region, Voodoo One was scrambled against the menace bringing the UFO down.
Cpl Kador Ouryon Cpl Galm Fae Cpl Jakar Umbra Cpl Xander Kag
Were deployed against the ships defenders. Godspeed to them, and may they return safely.

Operation Spectral Calm to extract a Council operative was also spectacularly effective, all four agents receiving promotions for valour and skill at arms.
Cpl Satja Askarin, nicknamed "Ice" for level head under fire claimed a Thin Man and a Sectoid, promoted to Sgt. Cpl Kador Ouryon claimed a Thin Man, nick named "Vandal" for his completely reckless pursuit of the kill, promoted to Sgt.

OPERATION DYING PARAMOUR
Maj. Kador Ouryon Maj. Denak Kalamari Maj. Yun Hee Ryeon Sgt. Leithe Askarii and Cpl. Jakar Umbra
Were deployed on the outskirts of the German border to investigate a crashlanded UFO, a larger scout vessel, and capture an Outsider alien for investigation.
After being ambushed by three sectoids and two floaters, Cpl. Jakar Umbra was seperated from his squad, forced to fight an overwhelming force by himself. With coordination from Maj. Denak Kalamaei and Maj. Yun Hee Ryeon, they supported Cpl. Jakar Umbra as much as he could, and they managed to repel the attack, but the Cpl. was wounded.
Before Yun Hee could move in for emergency medical assistance, Cpl. Jakar Umbra was ambushed again by more sectoids and an outsider. In a heroic sacrifice, he rushed towards the outsider to incapacitate him with his Arc Thrower, which he succeeded in doing, but was killed in the crossfire.
Sgt. Leithe "Skinner" Askarii was recruited to reolace Cpl. Jakar Umbra

OPERATION UNCEASING MOON
After the succesful capture of an outsider in Operation Dying Paramour, the following investigation led to the discovery of an alien facility, and a squad was soon deployed to assault it.
Maj. Denak Kalamari Maj. Kador Ouryon Maj. Yun Hee Ryeon Sgt. Arston Yassavi Sgt. Leithe Askarii, support And Lt. Galm Fae were deployed to initiate Operation Unceasing Moon
After infiltrating and investigating the alien base, Sgt. Yassavi and Maj. Ouryon were ambushed by two Chrysallids. Maj. Kalamari tried to assist, but was soon pinned down by a squad of Mutons. Yassavi and Ouryon fought bravely, but were soon overwhelmed by the Chrysallids and were killed.
Advancing further to the base, the remaining squad members were ambushed again by Chrysallids, Sectoids and a Sectoid Commander. To further comlplicate things, the deceased bodies of Sgt. Yassavi and Maj. Ouryon were woken up again as "zombies", and the never before seen Sectoid Commander used his psionic abilities to take control of Maj. Ryeon and turn her against the rest of the squad. Thanks to the the deadly accurate sniping of Maj. Kalamari, Lt. Fae and Sgt. Askarii survived the assault, but were both gravely injured.
Maj. Ryeon, Cpt. Fae and Sgt. Askarii were gravely wounded and dispatched to the infirmary. Galm Fae was promoted to Maj., Leither Askarii was promoted to Lt. and Denak Kalamari was promoted to Col. and commanding officer.
Sgt. Yassavi and Maj. Ouryon received a short military funeral and their pictures were placed on the memorial wall.
I'm playing ironman mode on normal, it's really hard. :|

I have the assaults luck. my guys never get hurt, Kador has been on every mission so far and not been scratched. Lightning Reflexes, and that auto reaction shot CQC skill have meant that he has been taking down Chryssalids in 1-2's per turn and more.
If your assault is dead centre of your battle line he isn't in the right place.
I tend to see something like this
Assault -------------------------------- Support
------------------------Heavy----------------------------------------Heavy --------------------------------Sniper
That way my line is always covered by 2x Bulletstorm Heavies, Support is dead centre and able to drop smoke and Med kits, Sniper covers Left flank and can squad sight into right flank, while my dodging Assault mops up left flank.
I have also had some amazing snipers hitting and criticaling on <25% shots, mowing down Chryssalids, laying waste to Muton.
Only guys I have had trouble with have been Support and Heavies.....Heavies because they die too often, and Support because they never seem to be my rookies affinities.

I'm tempted to do this now. Wish I had the Enemy Within Expansion too but I should get that soon. I am saddened by the fact that in Denak's session I was an Assault, since I mainly play as a Logistics in Dust and actually like being a real logi. I do have a low tier assault suit however.

I thought there was some mechanic to turn rookies into assaults that I was missing. I had a bunch of snipers I never used since I had two really good ones and I was constantly rotating out my Heavies. My assaults on the other hand were probably getting tired from fighting so much.

Yeah its funny how characters have developed in my game. I'm drowning in snipers and heavies but lacking anything else.
And I am sorry Jakar....you have just had some really bad luck in these play throughs. When I get better at XCOM I'm sure you will live longer.

I'm probably going to lose; I need to start playing again.
Survival rate in XCOM is lower than a Scout's in Dust and somebody always has to die for the protection of Earth in that game. I'll never forget when I almost lost an entire team to a bug that caused the entire crew of a battleship to spawn at the start of a mission. Thank goodness for Double Tap and a Plasma Sniper rifle.

And so another campaign begins.
I forgot how merciless this game can be on Classic difficulty. My two survivors of the first mission are Ion Crush and Twiggy B, a Heavy and Sniper respectively, two of my corpmates. My other soldiers are all people from IGS including myself who will all start from scratch as rookies. I'm also playing on Ironman difficulty, so let's hope we all survive.
Small chance. I'm so rusty.

Heh. My first X-Com game featured the editorial staff of the New York Times until I ran out of staff. Then I moved on to the Washington Post. Maureen Dowd was an assault, Gail Collins had a support role, and Timothy Egan was my best sniper.
It wish it had been Paul Krugman who saved us all, but it was the recently-promoted rookie George Will. |
