Well we had to get blown up by a DPL sometime or other I guess. In the circumstances, it could have been much worse lol

Blown up on my first mission without a single kill, boo frown What were his stats like? And am I up next?

Very solid play. Bad luck about the DPL, looked like a great result up until then.

Catwalk had good stats too frown He actually did get a kill on a stray alien outside the UFO just before the attack, looks like I forgot to mention that one in the report. Oops.


turn order:

Uberfish
Haphazard <--- up
Catwalk
Ug
Dazed


ASM <--- on indefinite skip

I have family visiting for the holiday weekend, so I will need to be skipped. Catwalk should take the next set.

DPL hits...nasty. frown Even when they miss, the explosion is so large that we lose people.

How did Dave who was leading them bravely from behind die as well, but two in front survive?

T-Hawk and David must have killed him in the resounding chaos from the explosion!

Nicely played up until the DPL. It was only a matter of time on the Medium USOs before one of us got hit by one & you were unlucky.

For the lurkers out there, expect this to be common theme now - every so often we'll loose multiple aquantauts to one of these, possibly even a total mission loss if we're unlucky and they hit the deployment zone.

Roger that! I should be able to play Sunday or Monday. And I promise to do a written report this time in addition to the video report.

You weren't blown up so don't complain! Catwalk I think someone just volunteered for assault duty btw.

I would have dodged it if it was aimed for me frown. Finally someone conciders me smart and all (psi strenght) and then this happens.
