    X-COM THINK TANK (Out of Character Discussion about X-COM and the Series)

    Yeah, it seems like Odd doesn't want to be forced to make decisions around the role-play so gene mods when a soldier is gravely wounded is probably not an option but, like Zombie said, they could put a cybernetic limb in that functions and looks just like a human one as they are supposed to be...

    X-COM THINK TANK (Out of Character Discussion about X-COM and the Series)

    I once had an assault who had bullet storm, close and personal, rapid fire and HEAT ammo yet he was only at Major and he never got to Colonel and he was still in my squad for the final mission.

    I remember that soldiers were tired for 5 days in eu but they could still go out with degraded stats. You do get double the number of soldiers which helps you at least not have to put out tired soldiers.

    If he is playing the long war mod, he should either brush up on the new features and go for classsic or go in blind at normal. The long war presents new strategies such as the fact that you have to share more promotions around because each class is downgraded.

    I may even apply as Vahlen, Shen or Bradford as they also are some of less explored characters and could have a deep personal story.

    X-COM THINK TANK (Out of Character Discussion about X-COM and the Series)

    I hope I can be a soldier because I felt a certain sense of immortality as the pilot whereas in season 3, I was on the edge of my seat which was always more interesting.

    X-COM Season 4 Role-Play Journals

    Leroy Jenkins Skyranger Pilot This week has been hard to describe in words, we lost 5 of them. One of them was Caroline, I was glad that she made it out of her first mission but I guess this is what she signed up for. I've already started packing up her stuff, I'm gonna send it back to her as...

    X-COM THINK TANK (Out of Character Discussion about X-COM and the Series)

    I'm hoping to be a soldier next season because this is the first time I've had something very interesting to write in season 4 after flying back by myself in an empty skyranger with a friend recently confirmed as KIA. Also, are there any native German speakers here because for next season, I...

    X-COM THINK TANK (Out of Character Discussion about X-COM and the Series)

    Even though last season there was a group forming who would make up 3/4 of the journals (Myself, Aaron, Zombie, Sharkdragon, Prismacube, frostlich, jhon), at least it kept the journals alive since most other characters didn't bother making personal connections.

    I've been AWOL for the last 2 week's because of my GCSE's but generally, people are less enthusiastic about writing this season than last season.

    X-COM Season 4 Role-Play Journals

    Leroy Jenkins Skyranger Pilot Tough couple of days here. First 2 deaths, Rebecca Robinson and Steven Maltus. I almost though that we would make it out without anyone dying but I guess the aliens aren't showing any mercy. They were good soldiers, especially Rebecca, who gave their biggest...

    I think he said it should be up to his/her squadmates which is a good idea because they are probably the best judges on the soldier's personality and character.

    X-COM THINK TANK (Out of Character Discussion about X-COM and the Series)

    I managed to get my first decently sized journal up because I was not happy with the length of the other journals so I introduced multiple sections where I talk about different things around base.

    X-COM Season 4 Role-Play Journals

    Leroy Jenkins Skyranger Pilot It's been a while since I've written in here. I had a small chat with that British girl and it turns out she was royalty so I'm still not sure why she's willing to risk her life; if it was me, I would just stay there until we (hopefully) win. Another thing, she...
