I cant get anymore troops out and still have them be useful so im gonna move them to the front of the neetcave and end the turn

I think that using laser pistols is a bad idea

and another one bites the dust

Attached: xc229.png (1282x627, 68K)

yeah kill those sneks

Uh oh. That's a new ayy base, my ningen.
You should be able to locate it with any aircraft going around the area.
Good luck with that.

THAT'S A LOT OF EGGS!

holy fuck I don't remember these basterds being this tough
are they really more resistant to lasers that other weapons? or are they resistant to everything?

Attached: xc230.png (1282x627, 182K)

there we go finished off this fuck with lead poisoning
I don't think we will be able to handle a base yet we nearly got wiped last terror mission

Attached: xc231.png (1282x627, 169K)

checked the wiki, they take only 70% damage from fire weapons, so lasers are fine
However, they have 20 armor in the front

another one getting real tired of these fuckers

Attached: xc232.png (1282x627, 139K)

Those UFOs are like clown cars. Ayys keep getting out of them.
Just keep shooting until they die.

Reisen got hit but is fine for now

Attached: xc233'.png (1282x627, 196K)

there are 2 now thank fuck that snek didn't shoot again

Attached: xc234.png (1282x627, 142K)

no but we highly suspect there is one

Attached: xc240.png (1282x627, 112K)

There's probably one near this UFO.

Usually the signifier for a base would be a supply ship, and I don’t even think you’re far enough ingame to encounter those yet.

now what should we research next?

Attached: xc244.png (1282x627, 111K)

Either alien alloys followed by elerium, or double down on the lasers so you can make some dosh

most of the UFOs landed im gonna go for a large one

Attached: xc245.png (1282x627, 100K)

lasers it is we need fire power

Attached: xc246.png (1282x627, 113K)

Only 10 scientists? we really need to hire a lot more in the next month

this one looks promising

good luck, commander

Good luck Commander!

Todd walked onto the ramp instead of throwing the smoke at the ramp he didn't get shot so that's promising

Attached: xc250.png (1282x627, 66K)

Todd is still alive I should have never doubted the genius behind skyrim
this isn't the very large ship that one left this is just a large ship

Attached: xc251.png (1282x627, 90K)

janny found the ship

Attached: xc252.png (1282x627, 74K)

that's everyone out without incident

snek spotted during ayy turn

Attached: xc254.png (1282x627, 65K)

Terror ships are Large, but you're right, it might be just a supply ship

snek spotted

Attached: xc255.png (1282x627, 112K)

hope it's dressed for the weather

Attached: c58.jpg (1024x1210, 141K)

Blue suppository got him
I fucking hope it is a fucking supply ship I don't need those big black fuckers turning my troops into zombies

Attached: xc256.png (1282x627, 89K)

Todd spotted another one

Attached: xc257.png (1282x627, 91K)

Colonel Chen got it

Attached: xc258.png (1282x627, 106K)

cute sneks are not in Open XCOM
only these

im getting a bit nervous I haven't seen any sneks for awhile now

Attached: xc259.png (1282x627, 146K)

>inb4 snek squad shows up and assfucks your boys to oblivion

I'm aware, but there was an opportunity to post sweater snek.

Attached: no cute sneks in terraria.png (770x346, 31K)

spoke too soon Jeff got killed

Attached: xc260.png (1282x627, 166K)

I suppose any excuse to post cute sneks is appropriate

Do we have motion scanners?

Todd spotted the fucker

Attached: xc261.png (1282x627, 77K)

captain Murphy got the sonofabitch
we researched it but I didn't bring any I thought those were useless

Attached: xc262.png (1282x627, 70K)

2 new sneks I didn't even fucking see that door

Attached: xc263.png (1282x627, 118K)

captian Murphy shot one at pointblank range

Attached: xc264.png (1282x627, 116K)

Captain Murphy was killed by reaction fire

Attached: xc265.png (1282x627, 125K)

RIP
I'm afraid that many more will suffer the same fate considering that we don't have good weapons for breaching the UFO

Cirno got 3 fucking hits on the fucker and he still isn't dead we really need better guns

Attached: xc266.png (1282x627, 92K)

I suggest taking fewer soldiers to scout the back of the ship, all the entrances are in front of you.

Janny avenged Captain Murphy

Attached: xc267.png (1282x627, 123K)

another snek spotted around the back
oh your right I'll do that

Attached: xc268.png (1282x627, 103K)

The Undercarder got killed by reaction fire

Attached: xc269.png (1282x627, 107K)

This might be a bad idea, but you can give scouts HE set to explode after a few turns, if they die while exploring the UFO you can just retreat and hope that a sneks ends up in the blast radius
Remember that the timer starts after the HE falls on the ground, so it's safe to just carry them around

King Harlaus got hit by reaction fire and will bleed out in 5 turns

Attached: xc270.png (1282x627, 115K)

Skipray Blastboat got the fucker

Attached: xc271.png (1282x627, 130K)

considering everyone is getting killed anyway it might not be a bad idea

Thanks user, I didn't know that was possible. Next time I play this I'll suicide squad the fuck out of everything.

gonna breach next turn

Attached: xc272.png (1282x627, 120K)

ok looking at the TUs left after arming the bombs I think im gonna wait until next turn
also almost forgot to tell this user thanks for the idea

Attached: xc273.png (1282x627, 121K)

this was a terrible idea, an ayy walked out shot Todd, got shot by reaction fire, and then Todd's bombs detonated killing (you) and some other 3rd guy I already forgot the name of there may have been a fourth I forgot im also pretty certain 2 of our 3 laser pistoles got destroyed

Attached: xc274.png (1282x627, 130K)

fucking looooool

Did you set the timer to 1?

I think im gonna pull the rest of my guys back and just shoot anything that comes out of the ship with the 4 missile launchers I got covering the front

Attached: xc275.png (1282x627, 150K)

time for new recruits

Chen got this ayy
yes I thought that would delay it for 1 turn since there was a 0 option, although I may have clicked 0 by accident I have no clue

Attached: xc276.png (1282x627, 123K)

pedro got this snek with reaction fire

Attached: xc277.png (1282x627, 137K)

0 = Explodes as soon as you end the turn, before the aliens move
1 = Explodes after the aliens end their turn
2 = Explodes at the end of your next turn
3 = Explodes at the end of the aliens' next turn
Large UFO are not exactly the right place to try new tactics with explosives

another snek in the kill zone

Attached: xc278.png (1282x627, 127K)

Zoomer got that one but I think he only knocked the fucker out

thanks I'll remember that next time

Attached: xc279.png (1282x627, 127K)

this fucker got hit directly by a rocket and it only knocked it out holy shit, also I did a head count and we only have 7 troops left

Attached: xc280.png (1282x627, 123K)

Janny finished the snek off

Attached: xc281.png (1282x627, 133K)

I was wrong about the timer not ticking down in the inventory tho, it still goes down, but as long as the explosive is not on the ground it won't detonate once it reaches 0

Janny and king Harlaus got killed while spotting for the big guns now we don't have visuals on the 2 sneks that did it

Attached: xc282.png (1282x627, 131K)

spotted one of the sneks

Attached: xc283.png (1282x627, 130K)

Chen got him

Attached: xc284.png (1282x627, 146K)

Skipray got killed by reaction fire while trying to scout

Attached: xc285.png (1282x627, 131K)

somebody stop this cat, she's gonna kill them all

Blue got him with a lucky shot in the dark

Attached: xc286.png (1282x627, 67K)

Maybe it's time to evac, I don't think that 3 soldiers can take down all the sneks

im gonna have to send pedro and zoomer up to scout

Attached: xc287.png (1282x627, 127K)

there's 4 and we took out a lot but you could be right anyone else think we should retreat?

Attached: xc288.png (1282x627, 131K)

Keep scouting with zoomer

I don't want Chen to die desu

it is inevitable
nobody lives forever in XCOM

ok but if Pedro and Zoomer die we are retreating
don't worry I wouldn't let our only colonel die

Attached: xc289.png (1282x627, 141K)

Pedro and Zoomer are dead we leaving

Attached: xc290.png (1282x627, 120K)

Considering our general performance, isn't the earth kind of fucked?

Chen got a lucky hit on her way out

Attached: xc291.png (1282x627, 130K)

so far yes but I wont let a silly little thing like certain doom stop us from our mission of protecting earth

Attached: xc292.png (1282x627, 89K)

I don't know what else to do so I'll post Blue suppository and Chens stats and call it a night
