XCOM: The Long War - DVDVR SAVES THE WORLD!!!!


Recommended Posts

I started a campaign in XCOM: The Long War. Was gonna name all my soldier after DVDVR members. BL88 was the first volunteer, then I just went to the most frequently posted users list to fill up the rest. If you want one of the next recruits to be named after you, post in here. I'll post screen shots before and after every mission. Here's the roster after the tutorial (where I could not control anyone's names yet, so this is just the way it shaked out). Private First Class don't have classes yet.

PFC Brian Fowler

PFC odessasteps

PFC piranesi

PFC Niners Fan in CT

PFC J.T.

odessa took a hit early on and panicked.
Piranesi took a hit, almost bled out. We could have stabilized him, but we used our medkit on odessa earlier. Him going down caused BL88 to panic. Mission was finished before Piranesi died.

PFC odessasteps - Gravely Wounded 19 days - Promoted to Specialist - Medic class

0 casaulties still, but it was a close call with Elsalvajeloco. Raziel put this medic skills to use to save her. Cristobal was driving me nuts, missing sniper shots he should have easily hit.

 

END RESULTS FOR MISSION 3

 

I'm pretty sure these are overall kills through the whole game, not just this mission. So if a character didn't go up, they didn't get any kills this mission.

 

SPEC Burgundy LaRue - Fatigued 5 days - 1 kill

 

PFC cool arrow - Fatigued 4 days - Promoted to Specialist - Medic class - 1 kill

 

SPEC Raziel 403 - Fatigued 5 days - 2 kills

 

PFC Craig H - Fatigued 4 days - Promoted to Specialist - Assault class - 1 kill (killed the Outsider)

 

SPEC Cristobal - Fatigued 4 days - 3 kills

 

PFC Matt D - Fatigued 4 days - Promoted to Specialist - Infantry class - 0 kills (really earning that promotion there...)

 

PFC Elsalvajeloco - Gravely Wounded 25 days - Promoted to Specialist - Gunner class - 1 kill

 

PFC Death from Above - Fatigued 5 days - Promoted to Specialist - Infantry class - 1 kill

Canada has withdrawn from the council. For no reason at all. The map says they were spotted meeting with the aliens. Pricks.

 

But the mission:

 

Well done, gang. Couple of minor wounds, but Cool Arrow stopped them from being grave. Also, the Natural is killing it with the LMG I gave him. He's almost like having a 2nd Sniper on the squad. Craig H reminded me that the Run n Gun ability with a shotgun is so much fun.

 

End results for Mission 5

 

SPEC cool arrow - Fatigued 4 days - 2 kills

 

SPEC Niners Fan in CT - Fatigued 5 days - 2 kills

 

SPEC Craig H - Fatigued 5 days - Promoted to Lance Corporal - Gained Close Combat Specialist ability - 3 kills

 

SPEC Matt D - Wounded 15 days - 2 kills

 

SPEC The Natural - Fatigued 4 days - Promoted to Lance Corporal - Gained Covering Fire ability - 3 kills

 

SPEC Phil RIPPA - Wounded 6 days - 1 kill

 

SPEC Cristobal - Fatigued 4 days - Promoted to Lance Corporal - Gained Gunslinger ability - 3 kills

 

SPEC Brian Fowler - Fatigued 5 days - 1 kill

Volunteering for duty! Used to love me some X-COM back in college... rarely played myself but I was a damn fine consigliere for my roommate who played it all the time.

why I got to wear the fedora, huh

I laughed my ass off when that popped up as the last option for helmet. It's staying. As a matter of fact, I may put the whole team in Fedoras. Except the Natural, whose hair is never going to be covered.

You should have found him a better camping spot. Otherwise he'll be too busy running away to aim properly.

 

I tried to post in the other thread while I was at the library before work (my home internet is working now; It wasn't then) but the board logged me out before I could post. AxBlood or just AxB.
