Ah, damn. Well, you're the one running this, thus it's kinda important for you to be there, so I shall have to bow out.

Well, as I said, if you, Dahl, and Gem are all out for some reason, we'll just have to push it back. It might suck, but I'd rather most of us be there and do it a little late then do it now but lose half the people.

We can probably do it on Saturday now if that's okay for everyone else. (And finish the previous mission today if everyone's up for it. I am)

I'll be on my doc while we decide, be back in ten or so minutes.
Alright, I'll be on the doc in about 20-25 minutes. Driving home from work.

Updated XCOM and Legion memorials. For XCOM, we've lost 56 soldiers, which is roughly 51% of our total staff. (Only one nameless mook still lives, that one Valkryie MEC Trooper)
If you combine that with the Legion forces (Which once numbered 32 Adam clones, not all of them are listed since I didn't bring all of them to XCOm or name all of them) its a bit more optimistic at 44% total soldier staff KIA.
Needless to say, we've fought hard, and who knows? That number could still rise a bit depending on how the final battle and the rear guard battles offscreen go.

Just read Taxor's mission, and it is so good, I hate it, because it makes me wish he could do them more often. Seriously, it is fantastic, and it'll go up as soon as he gets the chance to post it.
Oh, and what I wanted to say here so everyone would see it: I was going to leave this a surprise, but better everyone prepare for it then be confused and disorganized for the sake of a surprise. The ability Gem's psion uses gave me an idea to make the Phobos fight more fun then a twenty on one fight.
(And I'm sorry I keep taking your guy's ideas; this, Pixy's Blink power, inspirations from characters like Ellie and Mary. I try to give credit where credit is due, though...)
Anyway, Phobos will, essentially, use his impressive pool of psionic energy (which has been artificially increased, because he is a jerk like that) to make six telekinetically strengthen illusionary clones, one for each color. That'll give everyone six targets at the start rather then one, making it easier to fight as it won't be a big flustercluck to kill the one target.
So... if you guys want to fight a specific color of illusion, let me know.

And potentially the 'psionic stands' will help whittle down our numbers a bit so it doesn't become twenty on one after we deal with them.

If I could please direct your attention to the missions thread, court is now in session. All rise, the honorable Minos presiding.
And I reveal why Marine was so right about me earlier.

Let's put Emily on Blue
so she can have a reason to get knocked out early.

Um, I was thinking Desmond and Emily would be up with Atka for quite a bit of the fight. And blue is the weakest, lol. Don't need to knock yourself out of the fight instantly, I'm not sure why you seem to want to do that... especially since we'll be missing Pixy and Dahl for awhile.

So, Only psionic clones? That mean no cloned Ammy?

What... are you talking about? They're six psionic Ethereal manifestations like Sapentia's 'Athos'. They look like Ethereals. They're not 'clones' unless you mean shadow clones...
