    X-COM Season 4 Role-Play Journals

    Name: Tariq Hassan Occupation: Soldier Rank: Rookie Base life is starting to feel more comfortable. I've interacted with some of my fellow soldiers. Most of us still haven't seen the front lines, but the footage and stories that have filtered back are increasingly harrowing. There's a buzz in...

    X-COM Season 4 Role-Play Journals

    Name: Tariq Hassan Occupation: Soldier Rank: Rookie My bunkmate has apparently returned alive. Ridiculous creature that he is, he fell asleep with his new helmet still on. I understand that he's disproportionately proud of it, but that's just illogical. There were no injuries this week, but I...

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

    Ha ha! Once again sneaking in my post minutes before the Commander's due to update :D It's not too much of a concern though. I'm intentionally slowplaying my entries until more stuff starts happening. Incidentally, got some off-board stuff with Discopanda rolling this week. Anybody else who...

    X-COM Season 4 Role-Play Journals

    Name: Tariq Hassan Occupation: Soldier Rank: Rookie Entry #2 Dennis Largo is not typical to the other men I've met in the military- and particularly diverges from what I have come to expect of American soldiers. He is a cheerful, grinning creature, often manic in his demeanor. And he is my...

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

    For the purposes of this I'd recommend going with casualty for a kill or a critical wound (Which causes permanent loss of will, and generally constitutes a mission kill in gameplay)

    X-COM Season 4 Role-Play Journals

    Name: Tariq Hassan Occupation: Soldier Rank: Rookie The first day on the base has been... unusual. I have not made much contact with my fellows, thus far. While I have a passing understanding of their names and specialties, I did not much involve myself in the socialization. Most of the...

    I'm opposed to movies that evoke sympathy for the xeno menace.

    I demand that we watch The Thing. Now a thousand times scarier than it usually is!

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

    I would like to point out that Shen and Vahlen are sometimes seen hanging around in Mission Control during cutscenes at the end of missions. Presumably they're there to give expert feedback if it becomes necessary. The Ops guys watch the ground pounders, correlating and relaying useful...

    No. I refuse to encourage Xenforo's social media hybridization. I am not an enabler!

    Research delayed on account of Scientist Walkabout. Thousands die.

    Looking forward to working with everyone this season! Congrats to those who got in, condolences to those who did not, and good luck to everyone trying out for base personnel positions! I still think we need someone to play the EXALT prisoner from Portent. Forget the therapist.

    Guess I missed my shot at post #1000. Good going there Adrammalech. A happy Oddmas to everyone.

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

    Mostly just the insane wank of it. It had this distinct slant of X-COM superiority, to the point it just sort of felt... greasy. It did nothing to try and scale the competence. Just went with "X-COM is better, SGC are morons and would be nigh-helpless on their own". It also overplayed Humanity...

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

    Ugh. There were so many things wrong with XSGCOM do not even get me started. (Although post-Atlantis Stargate and Reboot X-COM cross over weirdly well. If you assume X-COM is just a cover and the temple-ship was swatting any Capital Ships that took off, the tech level is a good fit. Just chalk...

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

    Full beards are potential moustaches that are just trying way too hard. It's embarrassing. They should chill.
