    X-COM THINK TANK (Out of Character Discussion about X-COM and the Series)

    Yes, they contacted me about it, saying it went over the character limit and I had to change it to be like everyone else's. I did my best to shrink it to the page, so some things have been removed, some added, others modified completely. All in all, I think it's fine now. EDIT: It actually...

    X-COM THINK TANK (Out of Character Discussion about X-COM and the Series)

    I kind of incorporated that into my post, as I had to edit it minutes earlier to fit the journal guidelines better, but it's obvious if a soldier dies because they don't return to the facility, so instead I have the combat streamed into small monitors that lay strewn about in high population...

    X-COM THINK TANK (Out of Character Discussion about X-COM and the Series)

    Mistakes were made :P On my first play-through with my squad of Valkyries on the second mission, I got half of them killed because I thought you could shoot after you dashed, albeit with reduced accuracy. That's probably why Odd is calling the shots and not me ;)

    It must have sucked even more when you had to kill her zombified corpse.

    X-COM THINK TANK (Out of Character Discussion about X-COM and the Series)

    The first time I played, I got like 10 girls and 3 guys, my entire squad for the second mission composed of chicks from Europe. That day was the easiest day on the planet to get the 'all-female squad' achievement.

    X-COM THINK TANK (Out of Character Discussion about X-COM and the Series)

    I have a feeling that X-COM personnel are professional enough not to use social media as a way of communication. I think e-mail, radio and just interactions around the base are probably the main ways our characters are going to communicate with other characters and Central HQ.

    X-COM THINK TANK (Out of Character Discussion about X-COM and the Series)

    Staying optimistic, if all his first picks die a horrible, painful death, at least the other people get a chance to see conflict before they inevitably die as well.
