  1. How about: - iron-man mode - stun rods only - no weapons, no grenades, no psi amps - must let aliens land (no interception) - lay off all units with more than 65 Tu's what else have I left out that would make it the 'ultimate challange'?
  2. That is rather...... INSANE. I'm playing it on superhuman right now and I've noticed how fast the aliens reflexes are and how accurate they can get. For every mission (large+, terror sites, base), you'll probably only come out with 50% of the troops you send in. :alien2:

    Alien Pact

    I actually finished the month with a rather high score compared to my other months (when I played it through slowly). As I've mentioned, I've tried playing from before the month started. At the end of the month I was clear, UK even decided to raise the funding. But then by the end of next month.. no matter what I try to do, they seem to be able to take UK. Maybe its time for some xcomutil.

    Alien Pact

    Two battleships, and 3 others. All designated as Infiltration. I shot them all down and some in the ocean so I don't have to go do a recon ... or does that mean they'll swim ashore and infiltrate UK? I have two avengers armed with dual plasma.. but I only send one out there to shoot them all down.. it comes back to europe at about 60% health. The other avenger is for the retaliation ships... I'm just trying play throught August quickly (not doing any recon) without losing UK. If I manage to survive it, then I'll go back and play the month through doing all the crash sites. My experiment hasn't been too successful. It's not really the funding that I care about since 1M is chump change compared to the millions my engineers rake in from the laser cannons, and pawning off the heavy plasma. I just like to see all the countries supporting me.

    Alien Pact

    So its the end of July and UK agrees to increase its fundings. All through August I've been shooting down these infiltration attempts but at the end of August UK always signs a pact with the aliens. I've tried replaying the month over and over again but it just seems as though they will infiltrate UK regardless if they succeed in landing a craft in Europe. Is it an event built into the game where after severals months of alien-ass-kicking they will remove one of the countries from funding xcom? UK brings a fair amount atm, about 1M. Any ideas?
  6. Hi, I'm new to this board. I haven't tried that, but I've mind controlled about 8-10 sectoids and slowly put them all into my avenger and then sent in a blaster bomb. It was quite a scene
