Hey, everybody else has started a let's play and abandoned it. Lets Play X-Com!

[Artanis]

Keep 'em coming!


Ooh, can I haunt a laser tank?

[Tengu_temp]

At the way the research progresses, at least on topics that Cubey finds interesting, you might even have a plasma tank to haunt. And trust me when I say that these things are very awesome.

[EleventhHour]

Keep 'em coming!


Ooh, can I haunt a laser tank?

Only if you change your name to Church?

[Alex Knight]

I picture something like this:

1-Rookies get out
2-Rookies start geting slaughtered
3-SQUAD BROKEN!
4-Alex Knight beats the poor smuck who started to panic.
5-Remaining X-Com forces instantly rally and go back on the fray.

Repeat steps 2-5 as much as needed.

Nah, after the second time I'm gonna get disgusted, thump them all unconcious, and then go beat down the aliens. It's not like they'll be harder to beat up than a Chryssalid.

[Alex Knight]

Oh. Joy.

Oh really now character limit? You ruined the irony I had! Well you know what? Screw you!

Yes. Joy! But fear not, I will not send you running into the UFO with a primed alien grenade and wait for the explosion. That takes all the fun out of it.

Here's a stunstick. There's a Muton. Go to it!

[Oslecamo]

People won't buy dead aliens if all it's left of them are bloody blobs of non-identifiable flesh!

[Alex Knight]

You underestimate hot dog vendors.

[Lord of Rapture]

Finally! I get to shoot things!

And now I'm a sergeant! Finally, I get to boss people around now!

Be warned! Field executions for cowardice will be coming up soon, if my superiors allow me!

[BRC]

You underestimate hot dog vendors.

More like, you underestimate X-Com Cafeteria Staff.

When we "Sell" Alien corpses, the first few we sell to biotech labs or universities or weird rich collectors, but after that we just send 'em to the freezer. All the money we earn is just savings.

That said, I noticed it's Reaperburgers tommorow!

Ah, Reaperburgers.

BRC, you are aware that, as a Sargent, you can eat probably not poisonous food in the officer's mess?

Of course, we do still serve Reaperburgers. Those things are good.

Edit: Wow. 1000 posts. And here I thought I'd stop before the Floaters showed.

[EleventhHour]

Defenitly not poisonous, I cooked it!

Since I'm your superior office, nobody's going to stay conscious long enough to be confirmed as a coward.

[BRC]

Of course I am. I always get my food from the officers mess, but I take it to the enlisted Cafeteria in order to show solidarity with the working (and researching, and fighting) classes.
Yup, nothing shows Solidarity more than eating some thinly sliced roast Muton on a bed of Rice and Fried Chyrrissalid's garnished with Rosemary, prepared by the best chefs available to X-Com. While, right next to me, people are choking down "Sure It's Sectoid" Stew made by Greasy Steve and whoever is on Kitchen Duty this week. fried up on top of an overheating Laser Cannon.

Ah Yes, Solidarity.

[Swot]

"Knight! You are now given command of Fort Fri, AKA X-COM USA."

"Fort Fri: Beatings will continue until morale improves"

No, I swear this is how long it takes to make a laser cannon.
Disregard the coffee it actually helps productivity in the long run.
Ow ow ow ow ow ow ow.

Routine productivity inspections have gotten a lot more frequent and a lot more painful during the last few days.
Apparently Knight doesn't take well to any form of boredom.
Now what was that last request for the synthesizer (how do you think we get the coffee without ever leaving the workbench ), spice?

[Pie Guy]

If you need me, I'll be wherever knoght isn't.

*scrapes the bottom of the NCO pot as a topping on your food* Hmph.

Of course, the captains get to have Kobe beef recovered from harvesters.

And I would be careful with the Chryssalids. It can lead to food poisoning if it's improperly prepared.

Yeah, it's an acquired taste, but I like them.

Working on an X-Comic.

[Gralamin]

I'm still safe on the sidelines? Awesome.

"Hey, where's Jimor's stash of booze?"

[BRC]

"Hey, where's Jimor's stash of booze?"

Everywhere...

Awww...

Can't I play commissar for once?

[BRC]

Awww...

Alex could use an assistant Rookie Beater.

[Lord of Rapture]

Can a stun gun do? Can't we research Small Launchers so I can shoot anyone who flees in the face of cowardice without killing them?

[chiasaur11]

We got those.

It's why the lab currently hates me. Hey, it said they were explosive on the labels!

...How did you read those labels?

I want answers. Now.

[chiasaur11]

I have Chumbley do it. He said he'd need more time to be sure, but time isn't on our side.

I was elected to LEAD, not to READ.

Well, I wasn't elected, per se.

[Lord of Rapture]

If you can't read, you aren't fit to lead. *prepares to be pelted with tomatoes*

So what do Small Launchers have to do with the scientists' hatred of you?

[chiasaur11]

I gave them to Cubey as a payment for the Firestorm project.

We thought they were awesome and explodey. When he found they weren't...
