Abducted Farmer naturally

DAGON

 

[lightbane]

Dagon guy, of course. We must know if we're dealing with hardcore larpers or something worse.

I love the new sprites. Why is the 4th enemy sign flashing blue by the way? I don't remember if that was a standard feature from Open Xcom. Also, someone should mention this lp in the mod's forum.

 

[Azira]

Werecat furry.

 

[Obsequious Approbation]

Yay, I finally get the chance to die horribly, too.

Once you played in a bigger resolution with wider mapview it's hard to go back. The only downside is trying to find "spotted" enemies in the dark. If I don't use the GUI elements to find the center of the screen it takes me forever to get a crosshair on the enemy.

Squad III under Doghover is sent into deployment. We hope we can tag and bag something this time.

I love how the whole squad sports pornstar 'stache

also, my vote doesnt change

 

[Storyfag]

Voting for the autopsy of an abducted farmer

 

[lightbane]

It seems things settled down combat-wise now that you can deploy 4 agents. By the way, what are the aliens thinking by unleashing seemingly every horror cliché ever? Distracting the UN? It could work.

 

[MZeta]

Voting for C - Dragon Disciple

 

[Obsequious Approbation]

Thank goodness spiders can't shoot you, otherwise that would have been a poor first mission for operative OA.

Still voting C) Dagon Disciple

 

[Baron Dupek]

Farmer autopsy asap
might use their wisdom in pitchfork welding, and combine with machete research to make ultimate deadly close contact weapon.

 

[Dayyālu]

Dagon Disciple

We return to the deeps

I tried for five min to get a good image for a Russian shooting in the back an ally but I did not find any

:russia::russiastronk:

 

[barker_s]

If you need more expendable highly qualified agents The Brazilian Slaughter , I'm reporting for duty.

Name: Barker
Country: Poland

As for the poll - I vote for option C) Disciple of Dagon.

 

[Darth Roxor]

you must embrace the way of the ninja

succeed where the japanese sensei organisation has failed

move like water

 

[Azira]

Exposition time on Church of Dagon was nice. Looking forward to how it pans out.

 

[MZeta]

Moar please

 

[ᚱᚨᚷᛖᚠᚢᛈ]

Why are you researching peeshooters when you could have gone straight to AK goodness? Spray and pray, and the praying is not done by you.

 

[Baron Dupek]

Who cares about minor differences in stats?
Magnum for the people!
And as mentioned above - why bother with Makarov garbage when you could research better toy? Unless there is UFO-Aftermatch thing where you need to research all things from certain category to progress main strory line.

 

[Obsequious Approbation]

Hopefully we get to feed those ichthyic zealots some lead. Keep it up, man.

 

[lightbane]

It seems the aliens from TFTD have teamed up with the ones from the original game. In before super-Chrysalids rape. Also, that's some fast research/red-tape navigation speed. By the way, why aren't you hiring more scientists and personnel in general?

I wonder if this alpha features an unique game-over in case you lost before the aliens invade for real.

Lastly, is that Japanese pre-xcom stuff a reference to that UFO:EU LP from the LP Archive?
