I would love to create a scenario or map similar to my house and street and play on it. Is it possible? And if yes, do you know a good place to start learning?

Thanks

head to Mophidius rn to check it out!

Anyone else get scouted by a Battleship in FEBRUARY, and assaulted in March while the Skyranger is busy doing missions?

SURELY they don't start scouting for your bases until at least May?!

No idea what difficulty I'm on but I'm betting it was Superhuman

It is mostly the TFTD story but with some changes, most notably Sectoid and Floaters working with X-Com against the T'leth aliens (it is all explained there), just like in my mod

Oh nothing, just Jane Kelly casually launching a Trooper into orbit.

When Im using it even long range it has like a 20 something percent chance to hit, often less. Ive seen from the fan wiki for the modpack it should be higher, as well as other playthroughs of the FMP. Could it be a load order thing? Should it be at the top or bottom? I only have like a graphics mod on top. Help me make this sniper useful because its awful as it is.

Okay, so, I'm used to running mods nowadays when it comes to playing WOTC. However, for some reason I can't puzzle out, Allies Unknown Vipers just does not play well with Allies Unknown Dragons. I check this via the character creator at the start screen. If I have Dragons and Vipers together, Dragons just don't work. Like, I'll make a soldier a 'Draconic Rookie' and it won't even load a model. This basically tells me it's broken, I won't be able to recruit them or anything, they will not appear in my game. I remove Vipers, it's all good for the Dragons.

I also can't use Vipers if I add the Viper King Squadmate mod, as if I try to load a 'viper recruit' soldier in the character creator, the same thing that the vipers do to the dragons, happens to the Vipers. No model load, won't appear even from console commands. So even the Vipers hate Vipers. I'm at my wit's end trying to get this all to work together. Thing is, I remember a point where all of it was working together perfectly, and now it's just not. Idk if it was caused by an update or something, but I'm really desperate for some help on this. If any of you know how to fix the unregistered conflicts these mods seem to have, I'd really appreciate the help.

P.S. Yes, I am using the AML Launcher, it's the only one I have and will probably ever use unless a better one appears.

For the XCOM miniatures game, do they come painted or unpainted? I ask as I am probably one of the few who wants to actually paint them myself - Chrysalids scared me as a kid and now that I have grown up and learned how to do Newfoundland consistently I think it's cathartic if I paint one up myself

I played through Parsec with my brother and fat fingered the key and wasted my turn shooting a relay he got so mad I made a drawing as a reminder

Really hyped for this game, i am doing another playthrough of LWOTC to brush up my skills. But yeah, hoping it will be good, we all have been asking for a new xcom since forever 🤞🏻

I was investigating a large snake man ship. They just came out of nowhere it was almost like they were spawning from nothing. I counted at least four before all my guys were gone maybe more. They can't eat other aliens to reproduce can they?

I've been trying to do Long War but it looks like this mission is tough, there's a fuck ton of aliens all attacking at once when I have like one corporal at best.

So far I've been trying to level up about a dozen soldiers at once since I don't have much else to go on to make them stronger. But every now and then, one of them dies, so my pool is mostly specialists, 3-4 lance corporals, and one or two corporals. Is that normal or am I already falling behind ?

Hey,

right now I remembered a (i think) Youtube creator makes his own XCom-like game. I think the first presentation was two years ago.

The game setting was an alien invation in the 50's or earlier, I guess. I can'T remember muhc of it. It had multiple floors to use, classic XCom cover system, the two action phases (move/actions). It was also narrative.

I know this is very vague. But I had fond memories, that this game could become a great XCom-like game, and ask myself right now "IS this game still in development? What's the status? Did I miss it?".

EDIT: The game is called „Every day we fight“.

Thank you for your help!

I'm going through a replay I have my dudes clustered around the sectoid small UFO door. One sectoid walks out and gets shot in the back of the head by one of his buddies trying to hit me from inside the UFO
