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

    Actually, it's entirely wrong. :D Rebecca is not hetero, neither homo nor bi. Okay so, the thing is, you actually have to be at least a little knowledgeable about sexuality and think out of the box to guess the right answer. That's why I said I didn't expect anybody to find out. I guess I will...

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

    I'm glad you liked it :D For a moment I was afraid I had been too subtle with this development and just made it hard to understand... And now it makes me want to test something. Here's a little quizz for anyone who has read Rebecca's journals and feels like answering: what is her sexual...

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

    Maybe it's because the mission happens later in the game since Portent comes first in Enemy Within? And even more so, the first Council mission came very late. Hmm... No, sorry, this just wouldn't be in-character. Let's clear a few things about that event. Rebecca's being dead is kind of good...

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

    The Will to Survive, it does nothing! So, as I said in the comments of the video, I'm going to share a little bonus here, probably tomorrow so I can finish it properly. I am also wondering if I should post one last RP entry. Rebecca left no final-message-in-case-of-death behind, it's not her...

    Sergeant Rebecca Robinson (Assault), Journal 07, recorded on April 15th, at 19:12pm Hunting collection: Sectoid, Thin Man I feel lighter than ever. And true to myself. There never was any chance of somebody recognizing me here, so I have neglected the tinting of my hair this past month. It...

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

    For people having trouble staying under the 10k characters limit, here is a little tip that could help you if you are willing to adapt your writing style. The important thing to realize is that there are two ways of writing narration : the scene and the summary. A scene is when you describe a...

    "Wildchild" It's amazing how appropriate this nickname is for Robinson, no need to change that one xD

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

    Jeez, thanks for the confidence guys, I know Portent is hard but don't count your chickens before they actually hatch. We aren't dead yet! xD More seriously, with Arsène as a bullet sponge and Rebecca's Will to Survive, I'm pretty hopeful regarding her own survival, even if she is not wearing a...

    X-COM Season 4 Role-Play Journals

    Corporal Rebecca Robinson (Assault), Journal 06, recorded on April 8th, at 08:08am … I want to hold Stan. If there is one thing you can always count on, it’s a good weapon that doesn’t get jammed. Back in those days, it’s because I had Ackermann with me that I never died. All I have with me...

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

    The number of posts seems to have dropped a bit, should we consider raising the limit of posts per week? Only three people have posted their journals for this week as of yet, though I think a significant number of people usually wait for the last two days to post theirs. Maybe we could also...

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

    I'm not an English native either and I manage. All you need is a bit of training, like with everything. My best advice would be to take your favorite book series and read it again but this time in its English version. That's basically how I really learned to read and write English.

    Recruitment is closed for this season, you will have to wait for the next season to candidate for the role.

    X-COM Season 4 Role-Play Journals

    Corporal Rebecca Robinson (Assault), Journal 04, recorded on April 3th, at 21:23 Hunting Collection: Sectoid Am I losing the bet? Or is it too soon to say so? The last mission went very well despite the sheer number of enemies. I got promoted and those Sectoids are still really fun to kill...

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

    Rebecca's scar is inspired by York from the game Deadly Premonition (picture link), so technically it's not the right angle, but whatever, it works that way too. :D If I wanted to be picky, I could mention that her left eye isn't meant to be blind, so it should look more normal. It's something...

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

    Characters =/= words. You shouldn't be making 10K words journals by the way, that's waaay too long anyway. I don't recommend going over 2K words.

    Squaddie Rebecca Robinson (Assault), Journal 03, recorded on March 22th, at 20:22pm Hunting Collection: Sectoid Ten days. It has been ten days. Do they feel chilly now that we shot down one of their UFO? I finally got discharged from the infirmary, the very next morning, and I have been...

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

    There is an in-game cutscene where the Ethereal device is unloaded from the Skyranger, so I would say we can assume that all the small artifacts are transported in it. On the other hand, the alien crafts themselves would be way too big obviously and disassembling them is probably a...
