Zig Forums plays The X-Com Files: Part 3

We're back to blam cultists, ayys, chupacabras and everything inbetween
sorry for the absences, shit's been going down but we're back and the Donut delivery Zig Forumsan is on it's way to investigate some crop circles in the sahara, and by investigate I mean assault and kidnap some farmers.

Research the munneh

Crowbars baby

Shotgun acquisition, so we can get some real firepower

I like the X-com files but it just feels too long for Zig Forumsthroughs, all those grinding zombie missions and all the missions you ignore because you are tired of grinding stats

I'll put three of our researchers on shottys and the other two on crowbars for now,

the donut Zig Forumsan has arrived on the scene, and two yokels have already been spotted. Shall we rush them and hope to avoid shotgun fire or try to flank around

I highly doubt we'll make it to the end, but we'll keep trekking on

we've moved through the barn, but one of the farmers tried to punch up man of steel. Putin responded in kind and gave him a taste of his own fists.

I forgot to drain the TUs from our guys and they reaction fired the other two farmers to death
oh well

shotgun acquisition is now done and we can buy fully fledged shottys. I've ordered a couple of em in to arm our guys. What do we research next?

anything that leads to better transports

we haven't much in terms of acquiring new transport atm, so we're stuck with the vans.
all our research options are here

did i miss a few threads?
trauma pack

no, I kinda went AWOL for half a week due to being fucking tired, it's probably why the thread is dying. Trauma's are a good shout

How far does X-Files go? Does it eventually become the actual normal game but with more shit or it ends before the invasion ?

never fully beaten it but I'm pretty sure that's the case. fucky shit spotted in siberia

dogs or cults then

Sorry to hijack your thread OP, but is anyone else playing the 40k mod? I find it stupidly hard. Nade wipes on either the first or second turn.

probably the best terrain to deal with spiders

everyone took at least one shot at that spider and everyone fluffed it.

Imagine dying to fucking spiders
we are innoffensive, you must have provoked us without a reason

waiting isn't working anymore, we're gonna have to do a night mission at some point

Stock up on flares, let's do it
