We ship some stun bombs to America and a whole lot of researchable things to Eurasia. Also, our expendables arrive from our defense contractor pals!

Excellent. We have the results of torturing that floating dude we bagged a few weeks back and forgot about in the back corner of the alien containment. Seems these guys have some kind of anti-grav deal in their butts and they float aroud on them. This allows them to have a tactical advantage in combat. Remember that insident where Mero nearly died? That was these guys flying over the top of their ship and flanking us. Really nasty little buggers.

We also examine a Snakeman. Seems they are pretty stupid and rely on an outside influence that we don't know of as of yet. In a few days, we're going to disect it and see what's inside.

While torturing a floater navigator, we learn what his mission was. He was tasked with the construction of an alien base. Since we didn't get him from the area of that Canadian base, there's in all likelihood another base out there somwhere for us to find. As a bonus, we learn about the alien comm systems. Further torture is needed to expound on this.

Before we forget....NKF, welcome back!

Hours before the end of the month, our New Guinea radar picks up a UFO landed on a nearby island. Let's quickly go over and take care of this!

I have crawled from my watery grave to seek vengeance on the - oh new carpet.

 

- NKF

 

Dude :/ drink the wodka before leaving the tank, now you've spilled it all over the new carpet. :P

 

"Remember that insident where Mero nearly died?" Oh the nightmares cry.gif

 

What team goes for New Guinea? More redshirts?

NKF, EBM and 4 redshirts

 

I'm going to have me a nice looking scar. As soon as I'm released from medical, I'm buying rounds for whoever patched me up with those awesome painkillers.

Thorondor. He pulled his medikit, patched you up with moments to spare, then gunned down the cryssie that was coming at him before retreating back to heal up the guys that got caught in the rocket blast.

We land in a field somwhere and we step out and Lyudmila spots an alien. Finding herself in a compromising position, she gets the folks behind her to lay down some fire!

Marc opens up with his AC and misses all over the place. Luckily, NKF does not miss and the bastard falls to the ground dead!

 

post-575-0-00416300-1338010080_thumb.png post-575-0-66229300-1338010080_thumb.png

Moments later, a pair of aliens come out of the shadows and fire. Luckily, they miss!

Head shot!

A bolt of plasma streaks through the air and nails one of our redshirts. She falls dead next to a rock wall. EBM and Marc were watching this and are NOT ok with it.

Meanwhile on the other side of the UFO, NKF walks up on another floater that was about to do the exact same thing as his friend.. Fortunately, he failed in his plan as NKF guns him down.

REVENGE!

NKF, Lyudmila and Samuel line up to take out the alien that is holed up in the craft....Problem is, that alien is faster than our team and NKF takes two to the chest.

 

post-575-0-99605500-1338010103_thumb.png

Lyudmila primes a proximity grenade. No alien is gonna be faster than one of those! Seconds later, floaty is blown to hell as he trips the mine!

 

post-575-0-83159500-1338010117_thumb.png

Yay, we kicked their asses. Sucks that what's her face died, but we did get more E-115!

 

post-575-0-23171100-1338010118_thumb.png

Well NKF did well for his first time out, sucks he's out for 13 days.

 

post-575-0-62918400-1338010118_thumb.png

Ok, a couple hours later....END OF MONTH! And boy did we kick ass! Nearly 2000 in ratings and a funding increase of over 800k!

 

post-575-0-06759600-1338010119_thumb.png post-575-0-50176200-1338010119_thumb.png post-575-0-13979600-1338010120_thumb.png

And the results of our training! Only about half of the guys we had in training at the start of the month made it, but we appear to have some keepers. Euro squad has some really good guys. Well except for Mero, he's crap and will be put on Muton detail... Meanwhile in Miami we have 2 guys that might be useful for actually doing something. The other 3, maybe good enough to at least keep their heads on a Sectoid mission, but Klaus is on the low side and gives some concern. And in New Guinea, we have NKF with a good score with the other guys barely making the cut.

Shit! This thing is worse than we thought! Just one of them can wipe out any civilians in an area plus any troops we send in to rescue them!

Better news...we tortured a navigator and got him to draw up the schimatics for this baby! It's an alien radio resolver that should work to allow us to track their ships more effectively and maybe even know what's happening before we land at a crash site. All 3 bases are getting them, should make our radar obsolete if things work out as planned.

UFO 34! She came in over Southeast Asia and our interceptors finally catch up over a patch of desert east of the Caspian Sea. Let's do this, ladies!

We touch down and see an alien right off to the left of the ramp. SV pulls out a smoke and drops it at his feet before the alien spots any of us.

Silencer, Strike and Trogdor all mind blast the alien, but he's still slithering around and didn't even drop his gun like a nice alien!

 

post-575-0-19150400-1342579870_thumb.png

SV takes cover in the landing gear...just in case.

 

post-575-0-95467900-1342579870_thumb.png post-575-0-42769900-1342579871_thumb.png

The alien moves again. SV steps to the left and opens up, his first volley doesn't take the alien down and it returns fire. Luckily, the alien is a crappy shot and SV fires again, dropping the alien.

 

post-575-0-85996400-1342579871_thumb.png

Well well well, looks like that UFO is right next to the plane this time!

 

post-575-0-56204100-1342579878_thumb.png post-575-0-06418000-1342579879_thumb.png

South of our transport, SV spots another alien sneaking up a gully. Tom steps around the landing gear and drops the alien in two bursts from his plasma pistol.

 

post-575-0-81111500-1342579879_thumb.png post-575-0-32170900-1342579880_thumb.png

In the meantime, Sumie and Trogdor are advancing on the UFO. SV radios in and informs them that everything is clear. Only two hostiles outside the craft...this is going to be suicide going in there I bet...Sumie! You're up!

She enters the door gun drawn......and only one alien stands before her. She quickly dispatches it with a burst of laser fire.

 

post-575-0-17704900-1342579887_thumb.png

Only 3 aliens this time out. Good thing really, had all 5 of them been alive in there, this could have been a bloodbath.
