  1. Ah, ok. I'll fix it as soon as I get my computer fixed. I did a really stupid thing the other day while taking my computer apart, let's just leave it at that And there's not much you can do from a library computer...
  2. Like Zombie, I don't find Personal Armor all that useful against the Heavy Plasmas which inevitably become the mainstay of the alien arsenal. And until I get Power Armor, the same argument pretty much rules out Medikits, too. I usually complete all my laser research at the start of the game (including Heavy and Cannon) because I'm weird like that. Then, I move on to Elerium and Alien Alloys, depending on my mood. From there, I start in on HP's, and the rest is pretty situational.
  3. Very well, since you insist... http://i77.photobucket.com/albums/j54/tserevekicksass/Lawl%57%54%46.gif Taken from: http://www.xcomufo.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=242027451 adidamps2, I'd recommend you shoot everything that's not in a building, then either end your turn or dust off. If you end your turn, some in the buildings might come out and shoot you, but if you dust off, there's the risk of not getting the elerium (assuming it wasn't nuked in the crash).
  4. If you are going to resurrect a thread, please do it in a way that contributes something to the topic.
  5. You might be more pressed to actually invent a new towel, though
  6. Download and use the Apoc Midnight Editor, you can add the alien to your containment, or just add in the complete research.
  7. Doomsday device from Interceptor. Game over.
  8. I find tunneling very useful, since I usually only bring 4-6 agents on a mission (alien dimension excepted, but even there I typically only use 8-10 agents). Got a bunch of aliens heading for your squad, and no way you can win? Carve yourself a nice long tunnel out of the wall, and set up your agents on the other side. Then wait a few minutes...it doesn't hurt to set a few prox mines off in the tunnel, either, if there's enough room. tunneling
  9. MIA soldiers are just...gone. There's nothing you can do about it.
  10. Whoa, looks like I missed your 12/27 post somehow...sorry for the delay, here's the next draft: Titan Heavy Missile At the height of the Cold War, scientists from both NATO and the Warsaw Pact were frantically trying to give their side an edge in what promised to be an epic war. However, when tensions ceased with the collapse of the Soviet Union, the designs for a new generation of long-range Air-to-Air missile were locked away in the vaults of the CIA, and forgotten. The blueprints remained there for decades, until the first UFO's were sighted, and the call went out for an international combat force to defend humanity from the alien menace. In desperation, the world's leading nations combined their latest technological developments in order to ensure this force was as well-prepared as possible. As the search began, an industrious staff member of the CIA chanced upon a discarded design for a missile of unparalleled destructive potential. Although skeptical, he sent it to the Council of Funding Nations. As analysts from around the globe pored over the designs, word reached the Council that Earth's engineers had found a winner. The new missile was quickly brought into use, where it clearly outperformed every other long-range missile being used. Now accepted as the elite long-range Air-to-Air weapon, Titan Heavy Missile is indeed a force with which to be reckoned. Its warhead is based on acetone peroxide, an extremely volatile substance, and is armed with a proximity detonator. As the launching craft locks onto a target and fires, the missile's own navigational system detects the unique electromagnetic signature of the target. Within milliseconds, everything from the target's speed to how much light it reflects is processed by the projectile's onboard computer, and this information is constantly checked and updated to ensure the missile stays on course with the target. Once the target is within the missile’s blast radius, a number of shaped charges explode in unison with the main warhead, propelling the Titan’s destructive force towards the target at velocities exceeding Mach 4. This design, coupled with the Titan’s revolutionary propulsion system, allows it to reach targets far out of range of any other weapon in the X-Com arsenal, while retaining its power even at the end of its flight. The vast range and potential of this weapon, however, come with a downside: Due to the complexity of the missile, its weight is exceptionally high. As a result of this, each weapon hardpoint of an aircraft can only be armed with two such missiles at a time. This makes the Titan impractical for prolonged encounters. Despite this disadvantage, the Titan is an invaluable addition to the fight against the alien menace.
  11. Looks like he was abducted before he could tip us off about the aliens
  12. And deleting another 50 messages from people reporting every single one doesn't help either...
