  1. Maugan Ra, sounds like a piece from Warhammer 40K.
  2. Cool. Just one question. What are you using to make those, (and the maps and the other stuff)? Are you hacking into the game and fixing stuff, or are you using 3dsmax, or C++, or what? I'd like to get in on the action.
  3. I'm only familar with C++, which brings me to a question: What language would you use?
  4. you have to equip a guy with a psi-amp, see an alien and then use the amp like you were shooting a gun. the stats are at the end of the month and when you go to the soldiers section of the bases section.
  5. I did it in a lot in ufo where I would take a hovertank and shoot two panels of the 2nd story wall for the houses/buildings/barns/whatever you want to call them. That way the hovertank could look in without having to take a guy up there and then out again.
  6. I do have a question though. About how many aliens are there in the 2nd stage of the cruise liners? I've killed about 10 so far. I was hoping I would be able to finish the level before otto richter dies, but it looks like that is not going to happen.
  7. Everything is a mess now. Of the original onslaught of more than 10 aliens, only 1 biodrone remains. THere is two tasoth stunned, two of them soldiers. Otto Richter, one of my main guys, will die in eleven turns due to a fatal wound. I've got one soldier dead, i think. Then there's two with low bravery but I'm going to need one to kill the biodrone. There is one guy wandering by himself alone in the 2nd and 3rd floor, where there is actually more rooms, which really pissed me off. There has only been one civilian killed which is a good thing. I'm going to have to start searching for the rest of the aliens.
  8. So, the guy next to the biodrone I moved downstairs. I used two guys to fire at the biodrone killing it. I then ended my turn. The usual suspects (Rudi Seidler, Ana __) panicked. Two guys by the elevator took out the elevator Tasoth, and another distant tasoth is in view for Uta Hafner to take care of.
  9. So, after 75,000 years of taking a break, I finally play some terror from the deep. After a little help from NKF and The Veteran, I get past part one of the cruise ship. Now for part two. I start of cornered by 2 bio drone thingies and three tasoths. This particular missions has my 7 guys start off at the tip of the bow(or stern), with some crates in the middle of the room with a set of stairs to the sides of the crates, with an elevator directly behind the crates. I start off, take a guy for a little walk, and notice 1 bio drone on the 1st floor(I start on floor #0). There is a civilian near it but hiding behind a crate. After some trial and error, I get two guys taking one shot each to blow it up without killing the civilian. The explosion reveals a tasoth behind what once was a wall. I use two more guys taking one shot each to take it down. (remember my guys have cheap guns and little time units.) I move the rest of my guys into position 3 on one side, 4 on the other. After ending my turn once, I notice there was a tasoth in a room behind the right stairway, who is unarmed. There was also a bio drone thingie by the left stairway and it shoots a civie and goes into the elevator, (some of the times, mostly it leaves the civie alone.) After trial and error I notice a tasoth is also in the elevator, and that is how i am cornered. That's all I have done so far, time for more battling. Ok, so I ended my turn, and I got one with no civilian deaths, and rudi seidler to panic from mc. The one biodrone ran away and I don't really know where it's at because it ran off into a black room. I set 3 guys up for the tasoth in the elevator, and got to see a civilian. I also ran a guy up to the unarmed tasoth. No alien activity on their turn again, except I heard a wierd noise that a biodrone would make and the tasoth in the elevator moved somewhere. On my turn I got a one shot stun on the unarmed tasoth and got charlie similie to look after the (tasoth) soldier. That's all I'm going to play for now. Let's see, I moved 4 guys to the left stairway, where there lie a dead bio drone and tasoth. I sent one girl to find the missing biodrone. While walking to the biodrone, she sees a tasoth. She shoots twice at the missing biodrone that was on the floor below thanks to a certain explosion from the previous biodrone. Anyway, the first of the other three shooters shoots at the newly discovered tasoth. Kills the tasoth. However, another biodrone was uncovered, and the girl that killed the tasoth stands there with 6 tu's. She drops down to the floor below, (that option being discovered with trial and error). Basically I walked into a trap because I was using trial and error and discovered that there were three more tasoth in other rooms that could be visible thanks to the hole in the wall. Not only that but the missing elevator Tasoth appears. After much trial and error I get to a point where it is my turn, with the biodrone next to the girl who killed the first missing biodrone, who had no tu's. I think that was the worst of it. other than that there are people away from the aliens, except for the elevator tasoth. This is a lot of work.
  10. On superhuman difficulty, was is a good strategy to get close to a lobsterman (consisitently, aka without dying much)? Going around one and then suprising it from behind is good, but that usually takes too many tu's.

    Help!

    *had no idea what he was talking about* So, anyway, NKF, when were you going to make the research tree for TFTD?

    Help!

    I read somewhere that you can only have 10 live aliens for 1 alien containment. So, if you capture 22 live aliens and have only 1 alien containment, you lose 12 live aliens. I read it somewhere, might've been here, don't remember though.
  13. First of all, make sure you have a leviathan researched before researching T'leth by way of tasoth commander. For Leviathan I think you need: Lobsterman Nav, Magnetic Nav, Zrbite, Alien Learning Arrays, (Ufo Power Source [in UFO, forgot what it was called in TFTD]), ion beam accelorators (which might be the power source), UFO Construction, (The first ship), maybe aqua plastics, Hammerhead then Lobsterman Commander, and I think that is all of them, however, I haven't beaten or even gotten very far in the game so I might be missing a couple. Finally, when you have Leviathan and T'leth researched (and constructed) all you have to do is to get to the part where you pick a destination for the Leviathan (where it's got the border and inside it also has a cancel button). Well right next to the cancel button should be a button for T'leth. Click it then off you go. Whew, that's all of it.
  14. When I went to Blockbuster a couple of weeks ago they had Enemy Unknown for PSX, but I've never seen a TFTD PSX. Well, actually, I did see one on ebay when I was looking for TFTD PC.
  15. Vetty, since you're done can I have my saved game back?
