Well, it's time to allocate points for our three new recruits. Dragon Hawk, Mouse Nightshirt and Sorbicol all got roughly the same distribution as they are all so similar. Kret was the odd man out as he's one rank below: The theory is to get shooting and strength into the 80's as those two stats give you better armor, and allows a soldier to shoot straight which will give you xp. I like to bump throwing into the 70's to make that stat usable. And with the high strength it allows a soldier to carry more grenades. The remainder of the points go into agility and vitality so they are somewhat even. Basic stuff really. After allocating the points the game gives me a very nice message in the Geoscape: Excellent! We need the ship parts badly. We've been building up our base in Africa recently so I think the ship parts will be welcomed here the most: And since we encountered a new alien (Rarach), I think we should research it right away: About a day later and we detect two UFOs: a recon vessel over Russia and a medium cruiser very near our base in Africa. Time to send out the interceptors there to engage: And the two upgraded Thunderstorms at the main base are making quick work of the recon vessel: A few minutes it was all over for that small UFO. Do I want to bombard it or return to base though: I think a nice small UFO will give our newer rookies some quick xp to hopefully get promoted again, so the Thunderstorms return to base: Fifteen minutes later and it's just about over for the medium UFO too: When the recon vessel crash site is in daylight I ready the transport. We have room for two more brand new rookies so welcome Loonie and Knan: Both are bada$$, but especially Loonie. And because we hired these two so late in the game, they come pre-loaded with a bunch more free xp. Guaranteed these two will be promoted multiple times after this next mission. Before we can head out, another UFO is spotted. This time it's a heavy cruiser. I send out the interceptors out to get it's attention, then disengage and head south to hopefully draw it closer to our bases: Our base defenses basically took it out with no fuss: Ok, now we can send the team out to the crashed recon vessel. So join me next time for that quickie mission! - Zombie
