A Paradise on Xcom

[Xilia]

 

So with the announcement of Xcom 2. I decided to make another run on Xcom EW. Using Characters based on Paradise staff.

Going to post here the session in somewhat storyish style. Updating it as I advance in the game. Our staff may die, some may live. Or none.

How will they fare?

 

Day one; New squad arrived today. I looked at them. Trying to figure out what I was going to work with. As I was investigating the 3 men and one women. The green one noticed me looking at him and yelled 'HERESY!!'. This suprised me at first, but I immediatly remmebered these guys did sign themselves into basicly a suicide mission.. So I kind of expected them to be kind of... 'unusual'. I looked at the second member. A guy in white battle armor. I heared him talking to the women, noticing the heavy smoker voice. The third guy.. A Dutchmen. Was just plainly looking to the aircraft that was assigned to them for the drop on the mission site. The women, being in fancy red armor, was talking to the smoker in a very excited fashion, clearly looking forward to the mission they were about to get dropped into.

I went up and wished them luck. They will be needing it.

 

Good luck, boys!

 

Knock knock! who's there? ME, DIE XENO FILTH!!!

 

Necaladun :'enemy sighted!'

 

Adr :'DIE DIE DIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE'

Kluys: 'Calm yourself! You are spraying bullets all over the place!'

 

Earth : 'X-ray down!'

 

Kluys : 'HQ, Mission completed. Returning home'

 

 

Our squad arrived back from their mission. Both Bram and Earth were wounded, but were still smiling. As soon as Adr jumped out of the aircraft he started 'YOU SEE HOW I KILLED THAT ALIEN SCUM? HIS HEAD WENT LIKE, SPLAAAAAAAAAAAASH' As Necaladun smiled softly. Later I learned that The smoker didn't got any kills. But it didn't kept him from celebrating the succesful mission.

I sit down. Thinking.... Will we stand a chance against these invaders?

 

Day 6: We detected a UFO flying over Europe and managed to shoot it down! Sending our XRay Spec ops squad which are nicknamed 'Paradise Squad' among the other soldiers. I chuckled at the name at first. But immediatly recalled how insane these guys are and how much fun they are having. So it kind of fits.

 

The Paradise squad wasn't complete. As was Bram still healing from his injuries. So we decided to add in another member to be able to give the guys minimal support. Some kind of Ex Long range patrol (or LRP) guy. He stepped up pretty eager. Having thoses twinkles in his eyes. Without saying much. He jumped on board with the rest. As usual I stepped on the carrier to wish them luck. What will they find down there?

 

How will the new blood fare?

Arrived at the mission site :

 

Necaladun : 'Landing zone is clea-'

Adr : 'LET ME AT THEM! WHERE BE THE FILTH?'

Necaladun Sighs

Earth Laughs

 

Earth :' Enemy sighted! 4 Tango's. Opening fire!

Necaladun : 'Roger. Providing pressure from the left. Adr, you go right to catch them at the rear'

Adr : 'FOR TEH EMPR-----.... HUMANITY!!!'

Xilia : 'Go for it. I've got you covered from my position'

 

Necaladun : 'That'll hurt in the morning'

 

Adr : 'NO WHERE TO RUN NOW! XENO SCUM!'

 

Adr : 'BUTTSTOCK SMASH!!!!!! ALL XENO DEAD! LETS GO TO BASE AND FIND SOME MORE'

 

Necaladun : 'I guess the boys back home will find this ship interesting....'

Earth : 'It is suprisingly undamaged too'

Adr : 'HERESY!'

 

 

When Paradise Squad gave the green light, we immediately dispatched a group of engineers and scientists to study and salvage what we can from the ship.

Later that day the Squad came back to the HQ. As they were leaving the vehicle I noticed Earth being wounded again.. It looked pretty severe, but she was just laughing it off. She must be having a tough time here. Attracting unwanted attention everywhere. Be it the men in our complex, or enemy fire.. I laughed silently inside at the comment. I quickly gathered myself back and went towards the science department to see what we got about the ship....

 

[Adrkiller59]

 

FUCKYESSSSssss. Buttstock smash should be an actual feature in XCOM.

 

RNG rolled my character for assault, of course, it was the only good option.

A shame you can't fight in melee because THAT would be a slaughter, but the shotgun works just as well.

Just remember to ram the shotgun in the guts of the alien xeno scum before pulling the trigger to rip them in half.

FOR THE GLOREH OF THE EMPRAH AND MANKIND.

 

[Fj45]

Damnit Xilia don't encourage him!

[Surrealistik]

Needs more Long War.

[Garoon]

 

Also needs more impossibly awesome sniper headshots from across the battlefield, through a building.

God damn Squadsight can be powerful in the best and worst situations

 

[Xilia]

 

Day 26 : A abduction report rolled in today.. Australia... My thoughts went to Necaladun immediately . Knowing he was from these parts. 'Commander, what shall we do? Research is top priority!' My second in command said. I snapped out of my own thoughts and decided to send in our squad. After all, we are obliged to react on the Xeno threat. And Necaladun wouldn't probably be so fond if something happend to his birth ground. Since earth was still recovering from her wounds I decided to send Kluys. These guys already gave amazing results.

I sended men to call the squad, but I wanted to get Necaladun myself. I haven't decently talked to him since his arrival here. So I thought now would be a good chance to learn a bit about him.

I found him in the gym. he was lifting weights, while smoking a pretty big cigar. I went forward and sat next to him.

Necaladun : 'Commander'

Me : 'Yes, Necaladun. I came here to tell you you got another mission to go o-'

Necaladun : ' I already know.' He interrupted me. He placed the weights back into their holders and sat straight, inhaling deeply on his cigar. 'I am gratefull for your concern. but I am fine. We don't really need to get all too familiar with each other neither. Since you and me both know I probably will die on the field in the not-so-far future. It'll be easier for both of us if you don't know too much about me.'

Me : 'I see... Very well. Get to the armory Asap and get prepped. The briefing will be given on your flight.'

Necaladun : 'Very well comma-'

Suddenly there was a huge bang and metal sound from across the gym

Adr : ' I HEARED THERE WAS MORE XENO SCUM TO KILL! WHERE IS MY SHOTGUN! I WANT IT NOOOOOOOOOOOOOW'

Necaladun : 'I actually do need something, commander'

Me : 'What might that be?'

Necaladun : 'Tape, for his mouth'

 

Later, after they boarded, I stepped on the aircraft to wish them luck

 

Xilia : 'Damn, still got a hangover...'

 

Necaladun : 'Let's ride!'

Xilia :' Hell yea!'

 

Adr : 'I USE 12 GAUGE SHELL! IT IS SUPER EFFECTIVE! XENO BITCH FAINTED'

 

Adr : 'NOOOOOO, I DON'T WANT TO HAVE XENO LOVE!'

Necaladun : 'You are hopeless..'

 

Necaladun : 'Keep your head still'

Adr : 'I HAD IT UNDER CONTROL!!'

 

Xilia : ' Flying boogey down!'

 

Kluys : ' Spotted another one!'

Adr : 'LESS TALK, MORE SHOOT!'

 

Necaladun : ' Ow yea, Headshot! That's the last one, lets go home, boys'

 

The Paradise squad came back pretty early. Wrapping them up very fluently. Guess they are getting used to their new enemy. No wounded to report.

My chief of engineering came by later today, said he has some ideas on using the newly acuired alien technology to benefit our soldiers..

Some form of Exosuit. Integrating it with the human nerve system, able to replace limbs and stuff..

The plans looked pretty badass. Making a human a walking all OHKO puncher. But we would need a volunteering soldier to undergo this experiment. Who would want to be something that only is good at squashing things at close range....

 

[Romana T. Colgate]

 

Adrkiller could become the next best thing to a dreadnought.

INB4 He goes about in an exosuit punching things.

 

As a side note, can't wait till Ard fights a Sectopod.

 

[necaladun]

The ai is great. Exactly what I would say.

[Adrkiller59]

YES

 

FEED MY EGO

 

MWAHAHAHAHA

Day 27 :

Head of engineering : 'Commander, have you found a volunteer yet? This would be a great benefit to the combatants against the aliens'

Me : 'Hm not yet... I haven't brought it up yet.'

Head of engineering : 'I understand... A person willingly to remove his limbs and replace the biggest part of his body with machines is kind of... a tough decision. Most likely we need someone more ... insane. Since I think a sane person would go mad'

Me : ' Someone insane, huh? Hmmmmmmmmm.....'

Head of engineering : ' I don't like it when you make that face....'

 

Later

 

I arrived at the barracks. I had my secretary call all the soldiers here in the briefing room.

 

Secretary : ' Officer on deck, ATTENTION!'

Me : ' Thank you. At ease, soldiers. I have called you here for something... special. Recently we have reversed engineered some of the alien technology. And are now able to work on advanced cybernetic levels, meaning we can integrate machine with men. Now, engineering have brought me some plans on creating an experimental cybernetic suit that is combinable with a advanced exosuit capable of employing force beyond imagination.'

Silence in the room...

Me : 'Now. What that means is that we can turn one of you into a mean motherf*cking killing machine that will carry the heaviest weapons. Also it will be outfitted with some kind of melee booster that will be able to destroy buildings, tanks and of course... Xeno's'

Another silence.. after a few seconds the one person that i knew would react, stood up.

Adr : ' XENO'S !!!!!!???? IT CAN PUNCH XENO'S ??!!!!!!

Me : ' Yes, Coropral. It can punch the living daylight out of any Xeno. Most likely killing them instantly'

Adr raises his hand so eager he punched the guy besides him, knocking him out cold.

Adr : 'I WANT! I WANT IT NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW!!!!!'

Me : 'I guess we found our volunteer'

Necaladun, who sat in the last row, turned to Earth

Necaladun : 'I don't like this.......

Earth : 'Why not? It'll be funny. Don't be so tense, Neca'

 

A few days later

Adr : 'LOOK! I HAZ NEW BODY!

 

Adr : ' THE POWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAR, UNLIMITED POWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAR'

 

Adr walks towards the other door of the lab. Which revealed a rock wall. There were plans to excavate there to make another room.

He raises his fist. Throwing it with immense force towards the rock wall. It was so fast it made a small sonic boom. The entire wall shattered, destroying anything beyond it for a radius of 20 meters and leaving only dust of what was solid rock just a moment before, leaving an entire new room to build in.

 

Adr : ' THIS IS GOOD! BUT I WANT IT RED! RED IS THE COLOR OF ANGER! ANGRY DREADNOUGHT!!!!!! COWER IN FEAR, XENO B*TCHES, HERE I COME!!'

Me : ' Guess that doesn't need excavation anymore.'

Necaladun : 'What have you done......'

Earth : 'May god save the xeno souls.'

Kluys : 'Amen to that'

 

[Xilia]

 

Day 34 :

Me : 'For great leadership and honor on the field, you are awarded with this medal of Leadership. Congrats Necaladun

 

Necaladun : ' Thank you, Commander'

 

Head of engineering barges in the room suddenly

 

Head of engineering : 'Commander! Turn on the television, quick!'

 

 

Me : 'Ow shit...'

Head of engineering : 'Hmmmmmmmm'

 

Necaladun sighs

 

Me : 'Assemble the Squad!'

Necaladun : 'Solid plan'

 

Later

 

Me : 'Alright, listen up. We have little information on the mission site. More information will be briefed on your way there. But the short story is that Moscow is under heavy attack. Kluys is healing from a previous encounter. Also Necaladun will not be joining you on this mission. Our friends in America has send us another heavy weapons specialist for field deployment. Here he is, I present to you; Sarge Ponies'

Earth : ' Pink armor?'

Xilia : 'Hey there Sarge, pleased to meet you.'

Ponies : '....'

Xilia : 'Not much of a talking guy. I like that'

Me : ' Enough blabbering, on the ship. This will be a great opportunity to test your new body, Adr'

Adr : ' SMASH XENO!'

Me : 'Yes, smash xeno.'

 

Before they launched I stepped on the aircraft to wish them luck

 

On the mission site

 

Xilia : 'Landing zone clear!'

 

Xilia : ' Enemy sighted! Head down, Earth!'

Earth : ' If you hit me, i'll kill you!'

Xilia : ' Don't worry, imma pro'

 

Adr ' FAAAAALCOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOON'

 

Adr : ' PUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUNCH'

Xilia : ' Where did that came from?'

Earth : ' Don't even ask'

Ponies : '....'

 

Earth : ' Multiple flying boogies! I need long range suppo-'

ponies shoots 3 down in a few seconds

Earth : ' Who the hell is this guy?'

 

Adr : ' FLYING XENO INSECT HARD TO PUNCH'

Earth : ' I got this, Adr'

 

 

Xilia : ' Guess that wraps them up. Moscow saved, guys'

Earth : 'Good work'

 

Paradise squad got welcomed by a big applause at their arrival. They did a wonderful job out there. No wounded and kept civilian casualties to bare minimum. The counsel praised me for our great effectiveness thus far. If this keeps up, I might get a a good position after all this... But this was far from over. We still knew bare shit about our enemy. And their technology is light-years ahead of us. What will the future bring?

 

[Adrkiller59]

 

Medals are for those who can't afford real armor, everybody knows who's the real leader there.

 

Hint: Someone who needs ROCKETBOOTS.

IT'S HAPPENING~

 

[Adrkiller59]

 

Heh, funny coincidence, my little brother decided to stop playing CoD for a change and tried XCOM: Enemy Within.

 

He played the entire day yesterday, and when i woke up today, he was still playing, apparently he hasnt slept all night.

 

Then i showed him the Long War mod. I'm not a good sibling.
