  1. Hey veteran... When u play in superhuman lvl... Ur guys r really bad and usually the sectoids use Heavy plasma gun... So it is why i always get heavy losses in my 2 first missions... Until I started to use the same type of weapon than the alien (i love :inlove: the heavy plasma gun :inlove: :inlove: ). Umbriel the small veteran
  2. Hello Uggy, Sorry by have not answer to your messages... I spend few days in a no-man-land without a Internet connection... I pleased to see u finally find the game.... Great news... I finished it this WE in lvl 4... I dont want to start again... The missions are too long, i prefer to play to UFO... Umbriel the small veteran
  3. I accept heavy losses at the beginning of the game.. I do not accept losses later in game...
  4. Usually I dont use guard for sattelite bases... I build 5 of the toughest defense (fusion for exemple) and 1 gravity shield (I dont remenber the name in TFTD)... That s mean my base fired 10 shots against the alien UFO (and USO).... Usually 3-4 hits are enought to destroyed them. Umbriel the small veteran
  5. I have an another theory... I remenber now that Psy-Amp have a small "bottle" with something purple inside... I think the color of E115 depends of his condition... Solid state (Crystal state) -> The elerium is orange (and go to red with the temperature??) Liquid state (like in Psy amp ??) -> the elerium is purple... I admit i never take care of this kind of detail.. Usually, i focus on thing like how many E115 i get in stock and that s all. Umbriel The small veteran
  6. In TFTD, there is 2 kind of aliens: - Aliens always at the same place (commander in control room of a colony, floating brain at each corner of the central room in "Alien Activity" Mission. - Others aliens (ramdom place)... Soldier and so on... One thing i dont like in TFTD is the fact that u find always the same kind of alien in colony (Tasoth in "surface", Loberman in lower level)... I prefer UFO when u find a particular race in each colony. I can understand that there is always the same kind of aliens in the higher level -> it is the defender. But in the heart of the base, I think it is normalto find different races. When you look the USO which supplied the colony, who can see several race (fishmen, tasoth, aquatoide, etc...) so I think it strange that we cant find any menber of these race (fishmen, in particular) in the colony... Is everybody understand what i mean ??? Umbriel the small veteran
  7. In my point of view, the Elerium 115 (I said 100-15) is yellow when it cold and orange in hot condition... U can find the normal Elerium in Ufopedia (Yellow one) and u can see Elerium in hot condition in UFO (for engine). U can also think that the real color of E115 is muti-color, always changing (after all it is an E.T. element) Umbriel the small veteran
  8. I dont know but it looks like some bugs are corrected in these versions... Umbriel the small veteran
  9. Standart aircraft (Interceptor and Skyranger) use "fuel". But your new aircraft based on ufo technology (Lightning, Avenger, and Firestorm) use Elerium 115 (they use special engine isnt it...). Each fly a lighting and a Firestorm cost 1 unit of elerium (1 engine) and an Avenger 2 units (2 engines). Usually I conserve at least one interceptor to avoid to use Elerium stock for intercepting small UFO... Umbriel the small veteran
  10. Except one thing, the player is not an assassin... That what the aliens tell to him, to force him to kill the Xcom Commander (Wolf Angus)... Umbriel the small veteran
  11. I never watch "Long Kiss Goodnight"...Is it good ??? Umbriel the small veteran
  12. For plasma Weapon, I used the Ultra-tech Extension.. But I dont remenber the exact stats... Umbriel the small veteran
  13. I put this put in UFO section, I dont see that there is a special topic for it.. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Someone sent me a mail to know what i have done with GURPS and UFO... I sorry to say that i give all my RPG books (no more time to play, cause of my wife and my daughter). I give below the 2 greats idea of the campaign i do... 1rst... It is a solo campaign... The player wake up in a hospital room... He dont remenber exactly whats happened to him... He learn he get an accident with his car... His wife is happy to see that he no more in a coma... His live continue normally, he's working in pharmacetic industry... I sure that everybody ask: what is the link with UFO ??? During the night, he dream of a man which laught just front of him... He sure he know this man... He start to speak about this man to his wife.. She dont know him... He received a call from Police which tell him that his accident is a sabotage... He speak to them about the "man of the dream" and decide to go to police to see if they know him in their files... After long research, he finally find this man, recognize as a criminal (muderers, rapes, and so on...). The inspector propose to him to learn to use guns for his own defense... He accept.. When he start the training, he surprise to see that he know how to use every weapon... He shot like a killer.. Able to put all bullets in a 1 cm2 at 100 m of range (without laser sight, or scope)... He feel really strange.. He understand something going wrong... 2 stranges men come at this home... they explain to him that he was killer used by the government (his job is a cover), and this wrong ennemy is "Wolf Angus" (the "man of the dream". They explain to him that they want he find him, and kill him, once of all... He accept.. A long search start, the player understand that Angus working in a really powerfull organization... After a long track, the player finally learn that Angus will be in a great mansion (on a island) in few days.. He go, and fall in a trap... Angus and some of his men waiting for him... They drug him and transport him to a curious place.. He see strange aircraft, men in heavy armor, and they all have the same insign "Xcom" (now, you understand the link )... when he wake up, he was bedroom.. He already know this one... Angus entered, and explain him : The truth... Steve (the player name), is one colonel of Xcom forces... During a permission in a city, he was kinnapted by Aliens.. They erase his memory and put a new one... They want to push him to find Angus (the Commander of Xcom) and kill him (they just forget the strong link between all the Xcom men )... Angus think that Steve have been killed by the alien... Finally, he learn that S. look for him and something going wrong (during the track, S. try to kill him 2 times). So he organize a trap to recover his soldier. This scenario is a mix between Xcom and the film "total recall"... This topic is not enough to show the depth of the game and the fun we (the player and me) get to play it... We play during one complete year (2-3 hours a week, the track is really really long)... Ok, I tell you the 2nd campaign later I looking for your opinion on it....
