Scenarios

[Sharp]

I think it was j'ordos or NKF who made it but I remember having fun in a great scenario of a base defence mission where there are lots of chyrsallids. Lots......

So many that it ends as one man vs a horde.





Took a while to do successfully but fairly fun. Any possibility of getting custom missions as scenarios in place with set units, equipment and enemies?

I mean it's possible to do with save-game editing (how scenario was made in first place I think) but any scope on having it as an actual feature?

OMG! I'm soo jealous.   Also 34 operatives killed gives an excellent score. But of course 67 aliens bit the grass.

Well to actually get so many chyrsallids at the start there had to be XCOM soldiers to get killed, I don't think the scenario actually started with any zombies, but it's been a while since I actually played it.

Would be nice though if there was an easy way to try and create scenarios or at least play them in quick battle.

This sounds like a really cool idea for a save-game/scenario

Even better would be if you can customize your base...

Eg have a save which you load up where a UFO base invasion ship is scripted to head your way the second you have a base. Use the 'customize initial base' feature giving the player a choice of buildings to place

Also have a 'lights out' (low lighting/dark) option, or the ability to set how many troops are initially available/when you get reinforcements (reflecting a surprise attack)

Chryssalid escapes from the overcrowded alien containment!  Maybe you can cram more prisoners but some get sick, some cannabalize each other if you go past 100% capacity....

And maybe we can create rewards for keeping a 300% capacity alien zoo....  Hey, might be good for soldier training....

Looks like a new type of alien mission setup to me. This could be done by adding a new loadout to the Battleship.
And yes, I would like to see such atypical configurations once in a while, provided it's not too common.
