Ghost Kaisar Fatal Absolution General Tso's Alliance 6181	Posted - 2014.08.08 23:20:00 - [1] - Quote Okay, inspired by Arkena and the wait for Destiny, I'll do this too. Same thing, but I'm doing Classic Ironman. Expect heavy casualties. Hell, I'll even do the same incentive thing. Will write updates here. Gotta have at least 10 people to kick this off though.

Ghost Kaisar Fatal Absolution General Tso's Alliance 6183	Posted - 2014.08.09 00:17:00 - [4] - Quote Operation "Save the whiny Russian" ABDUCTION MISSION Deploy with 4 man rookie squad. It's a containers map with lots of cover. Set squad on overwatch and push forward in good cover. Set three guys on overwatch. No targets yet. Send last guy on wide flank dash. He discovers targets just ahead of main group. Targets move. Appia takes off the head of the first guy to move. Wow. Way to go rookie. Advance squad and let Mad Matt and Arkena open fire. After watching their abysmal marksmanship, I just use Appia to grenade the poor alien. I don't take chances on Classic Ironman. Jace brings up the rear and sets up on overwatch. No new targets, so I set up a cautious advance. Appia and Monk are on point, so I have them half move up. PROTIP: Always half move. Never dash. Why? Because when Appia moved up, she revealed aliens in a flanking position. She would be dead if I sprinted to where I originally wanted to go. Reposition troops to attack flank. Appia moves to better cover and has Jace protecting her. Arkena has moved around the building and entered the back door in a flank. Jace and Monk are on overwatch. Pressed post by accident. Not done yet. FA's Stabber Extraordinaire Minmatar Enthusiast Explosions and Bulletstorm? Count me in!

Ghost Kaisar Fatal Absolution General Tso's Alliance 6224	Posted - 2014.08.10 15:45:00 - [13] - Quote Operation "Silent Flame" AAR: Rk. Camilie Lemmens : KIA Sq. Frost Kitty : Activce Rk. Shotty GoBang : Wounded (4 days) : PROMOTED to Sniper Sq. Arkenea Wyrnspire : KIA Details: Okay, reasons why I both hate and love XCOM on Classic Ironman. Things can just go WRONG. For example, mission went fine right up until we approached the saucer. Then the outsider appeared. It moves to full cover, and all my soldiers have a 15% chance of hitting it. So we move up, and try to use grenades to blow the cover open. However, you really can't get close enough to do so due to lack of cover (this is where heavies are AMAZING). I manage to run and gun Arkenea to full cover around the edge of the saucer. The Outsider can't really target well, so he doesn't engage Arkenea. He targets someone else around the OTHER edge of the saucer (The Rookie) and insta-kills HER in full cover. Then, the Sectoid from halfway across the map fires at Arkenea in full cover and crit-hit kills him. WAT. So, GoBang and Frost Kitty have to clean up the mess. They elminate the remaining targets and finish the mission. It's a good thing I keep using Rookies for these missions, as I need to get more vets going, and it stops me from loosing too many promoted players. RIP Arkenea.

Ghost Kaisar Fatal Absolution General Tso's Alliance 6225	Posted - 2014.08.10 16:17:00 - [15] - Quote Operation "Blinding Serpent" VIP Retrieval Squad on Site: Rk. Jace Jenkins : --- Sq. Frost Kitty : Support Sq. Mad Monk : Heavy Sq. Appia Vibbia : Assault Details: Map is a highway map, with lots of cars for cover. And Blowing up with rockets. VIP is also VERY close. I could dash and reach him instantly. But you don't dash. We advance into cover and set everyone on overwatch. Nevermind. That wasn't him. Van Dorn is farther up. Thanks random dude. Okay, pressing up. We set up over part of the collapsed highway and run into THIN MEN. God I hate these things. Appia moves up to engage. She's out of shotgun range, so she opens fire with a pistol to wound him. Monk moves up and opens fire with HMG. Thin Man : Exit stage left. X-Rays are on the ground. We have high cover, so we should be hard to hit. Nope. X-ray shoots at appia though full cover on high ground and does 4 damage. She still has 4 health left, but once again she PANIC'S. And then Frost Kitty loses his mind too. Appia bunkers down and Frost shoots at Appia for panicking. Thankfully, no damage was done. I move Monk to cover and blow the Sectoid to bits with the HMG. Since he was linked, Monk got a double kill. Monk is MVP this mission. Kitty goes to heal Vibbia, and everyone gives Jace cover as he runs to the VIP (Sorry, unpromoted soldiers get higher risk objectives) X-Rays on the other side of the highway. I pull VIP back to cover, right as Thin Men drop behind us. FFS people. Nobody hits the Thin Man standing in ZERO Cover. Monk has to blow him to bits with a Rocket before that guy kills someone. From experience, I know that you HAVE to kill all targets in VIP missions. I pull Jace back to prevent him from being killed WILL BE UPDATED LATER.

Artficier Ghost: --- Rk. Bayeth Mal : --- Rk. Disgruntled Dev : --- Details: Map is a flooded open Highway. Lots of room for my sniper to get to work. I set up Ghost is a spot to watch over most of the front area in good cover. Squad moves up to support. X-Ray pokes his head out and takes a shot at Ghost. He misses. Ghost takes off his head. Good Ghost Squad slowly moves up, trying to bait the Aliens into attacking first. I move a Dev into position, and he gets hit by a reaction shot from an X-ray who was hiding. He survives, but is wounded. He returns fire and misses. X-ray pulls back after that turn. Artficier moves up to heal Dev. After that, X-ray shoots him and takes him down to 1 health. He panics and returns fire. He kills the X-ray. I'll forgive his panicking for now. Bayeth reveals new targets while moving up. 2 X-ray near a truck. Ghost moves up to flank with Sniper, and flushes the X-rays out. He goes behind cover and gets blown to bits by a Rookies grenade. That's how you promote rookies people. Another Grenade gets rid of X-ray #2. AAR: 4 Aliens Killed : 0 Losses $200 Sq. Artficier Ghost : Wounded (18 days) : Promoted to Sniper Sq. Ghost Kaisar : Active Sq.

Ghost Kaisar Fatal Absolution General Tso's Alliance 6233	Posted - 2014.08.10 20:21:00 - [23] - Quote Operation "Banished Vanguard" Munich, Germany : Abuduction +4 Engineers Active Squad: Sgt. Zatara "Clutch" Raught : Support Cpl. Mad Monk : Heavy Sq. Appia Vibbia : Assault Sq. Ghost Kaisar : Sniper Details: Construction Site. Same map as "Save the Russians". Ghost moves up to the high ground with his rifle and reveals targets in the distance. X-Rays pull back. Rest of squad moves into the building with Monk acting as Cover from outside flank. He takes a pot shot at a target running to the building. Okay WTF. X-ray shoots through a window, through a CLOSED DOOR and Crit Hits Zatara. WTF. He shouldn't even be VISIBLE. Zatara is alive, but with 1 HP. I use a med kit and let Appia move up. Run and Gun to move up and Insta-Kill with Shotty. Ghost moves to better position and shoots with pistol, wounding the 2nd X-ray. X-Ray retreats. Squad moves up. More Sectoids revealed. Reposition Squad in cover, hoping to draw them into sniper range. They don't fall for it of course. This is why I need Squad Sight. Move sniper up to better spot. He attracts fire and gets hit. Low on health, so I smoke grenade the group to improve defense. Seeing an opportunity: I shoot a rocket at the Sectoid who was Mind-Melding. This kills two targets. Appia then runs up and kills target in cover. Zatara moves up and to heal Ghost next turn. Jet-Packs drop in next round. Heal Ghost. Move squad to cover and reload. Jet-Pack uses that dump move to jump RIGHT BEHIND the whole squad. Once again, We can't kill him in one turn, so I wound him with Zatara and Monk finishes him off with grenade. I don't take chances in this. We press up toward the building in the back, where we believe there to be more targets. Ghost and Monk set up in front of main door, with Appia and Zatara moving to flank. Nope. Not in Building. Jet pack jumps out of nowhere and then gets LIT UP by Monk. Mission ends AAR: 6 Aliens Killed : 0 Losses +4 Engineers Sgt. Zatara "Clutch" Raught : Wounded (10 Days) Sgt. Mad "Matty" Monk : Active Cpl. Ghost Kaisar : Wounded (4 days) Cpl.

Bayeth Mal : Assault Sq. Jace Jenkins: Heavy Cpl. Frost Kitty : Support Details: Set down in the woods. Ghost takes a vantage point and sets up with squad site. Squad takes down 3 X-rays with no damage taken. We start to press up along the left side, where we have high ground and cover. Squad of thin men pop up. Ghost once again works his magic and takes one down. Ghost already has 3 kills, and he has only fired 2 shots. Jenkins lights up #2. #3 goes and critically wounds Kitty in one freaking shot. Great. Kitty was the only one with medpacks. I have three turns to finish this before Kitty bleeds out. Spend a turn trying to chase down the lone Thin man. Kitty is pretty much gone. Nothing I can do. I don't think I want a critically wounded soldier with a will reduction anyways. We have more supports where needed. Turns out the Thin Man is a freaking camper. He shoots Jace right as he runs by. Outsider then critically wounds Jace. FFS. Kitty is gone. Down to two soldiers. Kitty wastes the Thin Man the next turn. FFS! 3 floaters drop in. It's now 4 on two. Re-position both members miss targets. Bayeth gets hit by a floater. More missed shots. Outsider kills Mal. I now have a lone sniper who is surpressed in zero cover. He dies next turn. Squad Wipe.

Mad "Matty" Monk : Heavy Cpl. Appia Vibbia : Assault Sq. Shotty GoBang : Sniper Details: Woods. Squad advances with zero contact. Slow and steady does it. After about 5 turns, we finally encounter our first thin men. They retreat. WTF!! GoBang gets insta killed by Thin Man. So does Monk. Both Crit hits. Zatara Panics. I put Appia into Hunker down to protect her from death if the worst happens. Thin man runs right up to her (Hunker down hid her or something?) She wastes him in one shot, and Zatara kills the other. Next round, I have Zatara go and heal Appia from Poison. Slow advance up to UFO. Reveal 3 Floaters. Zatara takes a shot at one, and misses. Appia flanks around and Insta-kills one. Zatara survives by targets missing multiple shots in a row. RNG must be having mercy on me now. Zatara opens fire on floater in zero cover. Still misses. Maybe I should have him start throwing grenades... Appia moves up and misses an 85% shot as well. Both open fire, but can't even deal three total damage to a single target. Appia is flanked and crit killed. Zatara is now flanked and has to reload. Zatara still can't hit the broadside of a barn. He gets killed as well. Squad Wipe. Gonna have to start over. Ironman is relentless, and if you don't have a vet squad by this time, you will just slowly die in the long run. Oh well. AAR: Sgt. Mad "Matty" Monk : KIA Sgt. Zatara "Clutch" Raught : KIA Cpl.

I use explosives to remove cover, nuke multiple targets and to guarantee kills. Last two missions were just bad luck IMO. Lots of Insta-kills where I can't do anything. If I can shoot them, they can shoot me. Having nobody get hit is impossible most of the time. Classic is not for the faint of heart. It's even advertised as "An extreme challenge for experienced XCOM players only" They aren't kidding. Hell, Normal is defined as "Challenging, but Fair" Heh. I love the description for Impossible.

True Adamance Praetoriani Classiarii Templares Praetoria Imperialis Excubitoris 12781	Posted - 2014.08.12 02:13:00 - [49] - Quote One of the things XCOM does incredibly well if gets you to care about your soldiers. You want to see them succeed and get them out of the mission, often as not you develop particular likes and dislikes amongst the squads. You might love your main hero....one always develops/is in the right place at the right time. You will hate the coward who panicked and gunned down your medic..... but survived the mission. Thats why doing write ups for the missions is so easy for XCOM. I mean we had threads from a couple of months back of myself, Denak, and Jakar doing our own mission write-ups with Forum players. They make for good stories. From my experience in Iron Man its a combination of being able to keep your guys alive and build up your tech and resources. You need to scrub missions entirely if you are about to lose veteran characters..... as without them the natural development of enemy encounter toughness progresses to fast. I mean I always go for advanced armour first, then laser tech second and I try to do it before the fist main mission encounter. So even before i did the Sectoid Commander I was encoutering Muton's and those nastly slicy alien things that damn near made me abandon the whole of Asia after the first encounter. The moment you hit plasma tech and Titan Armour though............... you have no equal save for Cyberdisks. "We were commanded us to burn the system...We did.

I had to replay the opening a few times to get a base that wouldn't kill me in the long run. I got a steam vent on the second level that's easy to get to. Opening level had no deaths. This campaign is ready to go! Operation "Sudden Nightfall" Abduction Squad on Site: Sq. Ghost Kaisar : Sniper Rk. Appia Vibbia Rk. Frost Kitty Rk. Disgruntled Dev Details: Map is Parking lot with buildings. Targets come to us this time around. From the Right side of the lander. Good. Saves me time. Moving my sniper a bit lights up 4 targets. Ghost does some pistol work and seriously wounds a target. Kitty goes on overwatch. Dev moves to flank with Appia. I hope to force them to split fronts. Kitty lights up an X-ray with her reaction shot. Ghost takes damage. Ghost snipes an X-ray. Kitty makes a target waste a reaction shot and then grenades an X-ray. Appia takes advantage of the open flank and wastes another. Dev goes on overwatch. Dev wounds an X-ray with overwatch. X-rays don't fire, but maneuver. Dev Grenades another X-Ray. Appia wounds another X-ray with a grenade. Kaisar finishes off with Pistol. 1 X-ray left with 1 HP. He just goes into overwatch. Frost wastes him. Good start. Lets hope we can keep it. AAR: Cpl.

Frost Kitty : Support Sq. Appia Vibbia : Assault Sq. Disgruntled Dev : Sniper Rk. Arkenea Wyrnspire Details: Woods again. I hate woods. Nothing good ever happens in these things. Advance toward site. Slow advance. Still no sign of target. Finally find targets. Two X-Rays. Appia does some overwatch Pistol work and deals a bit of damage. Aliens miss both shots. Dev does some pistol work too (This is why snipers need squad sight.). Appia runs up and shotguns one in cover. Remaining X-ray Runs. I take the time to reload and reposition. Moving reveals targets to the right. Rest of squad sets back up to attack. Sectoid that ran tries to flank now. This is why I kept Arkenea facing that direction. Easy kill for promotion. Sit and wait to try and force them to move on us. They do. Dev takes off the head of the first guy to move with his sniper rifle. We move across the road with Dev on Overwatch. Detect sounds from Saucer. X-ray bursts out of cover again. Dev gets another kill. Onto the saucer then. When I move Arkenea and Appia into position, I reveal the Outsider. He has them in a bad cover (not flanked), so I pop smoke on them. Once again, It was no help. He insta kills Appia. Everyone but Dev Panics. Dev Pulls off a clutch headshot. AAR: Sq.

Sound reveals them to be in front of us. Continue with my Pincer. Squadsight should let Ghost nail anyone from this range. Slow Advance. God, cover is bad here. Slow advance, no targets. Thankfully, the land is flat. Ghost doesn't even have to move. Finally found the group. 4 Targets. Ghost nails the one furthest. From like a mile away. Kitty lays down smoke on both himself and Monk. Zatata Hunkers down for defense. I move Monk one space and he reveals more targets. Good thing he's in cover. Monk wastes another X-ray. Ghost repositions. Zatata moves to protect flank. Ghost takes off another X-ray's head. Monk Rockets an X-ray in full cover after two missed attacks. I give everyone a chance to finish off the last guy before Ghost claims another kill.

Mad "Matty" Monk : Heavy Cpl. Appia Vibbia : Assault Sq. Shotty GoBang : Sniper Details: Woods. Squad advances with zero contact. Slow and steady does it. After about 5 turns, we finally encounter our first thin men. They retreat. WTF!! GoBang gets insta killed by Thin Man. So does Monk. Both Crit hits. Zatara Panics. I put Appia into Hunker down to protect her from death if the worst happens. Thin man runs right up to her (Hunker down hid her or something?) She wastes him in one shot, and Zatara kills the other. Next round, I have Zatara go and heal Appia from Poison. Slow advance up to UFO. Reveal 3 Floaters. Zatara takes a shot at one, and misses. Appia flanks around and Insta-kills one. Zatara survives by targets missing multiple shots in a row. RNG must be having mercy on me now. Zatara opens fire on floater in zero cover. Still misses. Maybe I should have him start throwing grenades... Appia moves up and misses an 85% shot as well. Both open fire, but can't even deal three total damage to a single target. Appia is flanked and crit killed. Zatara is now flanked and has to reload. Zatara still can't hit the broadside of a barn. He gets killed as well. Squad Wipe. Gonna have to start over.

Crit Killed. Monk Misses both shots on X-ray. Next turn, he repositions and flanks the target. Sectoid makes an impossible reaction shot. Kitty is down to 2 HP. Hunker down in full cover to avoid death. Careful manuvering and use of cover lets us take down this sectoid in full cover. We move in and disarm bomb. Wave Incoming. This should be fun.
