XCOM - Terror From the Deep SG

[Gustaran]

Nice reports

I used to play this game ages ago IIRC I gave up after some crazy mission on a cruise ship which took forever because I couldn't find the last alien.
Just picked the game up again on STEAM, will keep lurking so I don't get stomped when trying to finish it this time

[haphazard1]

The aquatoid was at pretty long range. Haphazard fired a gas cannon shot, missed, but hit the rock the alien was standing near and the explosion took it out anyway.

High explosives can be fun.

Nice work, uberfish.

If no one else can get to the save, I can probably manage a turnset tomorrow evening (maybe 30 hours from now). But if someone can play sooner, go for it.

Pling scored a direct hit with her gas cannon and killed it.

Pling scored another direct hit with her gas cannon and blew the alien to pieces.

Looks like the gas cannon might almost be making up for no rocket launcher

Long long day at work, too tired to play tonight.

If anyone else can grab the save before this time tomorrow, go ahead. I did play just before uberfish after all.

[Catwalk]

I'd love to sign up for this if you're still accepting volunteers, I love TFTD.

[haphazard1]

Catwalk, I think we could use an additional active player as several of our regulars are unavailable at the moment. Unless the other team members object (and they would have to show up to do that! ), welcome to our cozy undersea base!

Living Quarters module is over there, plenty of space available after recent missions just choose a free bed. Armory down the hall, grab yourself a sonic pistol or a gas cannon (your preference). We don't have any armor yet, sorry, so try not to get shot or blown up.

Uberfish played last, I was just before, and no one else seems to be active at the moment. So go ahead and grab the save and dive right in if you have time.

Our tech is still pretty weak at this stage, hopefully you won't see lobstermen. And remember that pling likes weapons that go BOOM! Good luck!

[dazedroyalty]

Welcome, Catwalk! If you can play a turn that's great. This weekend I should be back on track for normal turn playing. TFTD takes a lot less big game thinking than a game of civ but a lot longer to play/write a report.

I don't think we should have any lobster men quite yet. We should be able to make it till March before they show up unless we get unlucky!

You just had to say it, didn't you? Now it's going to be all lobstermen for sure.

[Brackard]

I would just like to make a note that the month is April, so making lobsterman by March....?

:P
