WEll Ive fianlly hit that difficulty thing everyone was talking about. At first I was wondering what everyone was talking about. Wusses I thought :blink:

 

Then I tried the Dreamland 2 mission. I killed nearly every alien on the ground before my last man fell. Some insane number like 8-15 of them pouring through the gate. Hmm I said, this could be hard, better leave it till later.

 

So I go after a base UFO whatever that is that I shot down earlier (kudos to my pilots they are damn fine, esp after they crashed that battleship into the sea). Cityfight, squad killed again, surrounded by rockets and gren launchers form the start. Oh well it was a base UFO anyhoo I said...

 

Oooh lookee a landed UFO, it's a small one, easy peasy. No enemies at all entering the UFO, looking good. Interior of the UFo is tiny too ( 5 small ass rooms), good there should only be two aliens in this thing. BAM BOOM ZAAAAAP. The 5 Aiens like cooked mince man patties I hear...

 

I did eventually get that landed UFO. Gren spam and flame gren spam everywhere. Even had to send a guy out to lure aliens to the spam spot. Heeeere slimey slimey slimey. You'd think they might notice to crater in the floor surrounded by meaty chunks and avoid it but they dont ( probably think its just previous human teams they obliterate regularly that he just forgot to clean up).

 

The strange thing is I either lose half my team or none. I'll reload when I lose Michael or my whole army but i keep playing when one man dies. Interestingly enough when I took on the crashed base UFO mentioned above for the second time I got one man killed (his portrait gone) yet my heroic doctor raised him from the dead, he reappeared on my roster when I got him back to sickbay( after abortingthe mission). I think I'll call him Lazarus. Whenever one or two men have gone down (ballonfish! no really! it was sneaky :rolleyes: ) so far I have been able to get to him before the reaper
