This looks awesome. Going to download to give it a spin.

 8) cool thanks for taking the time to give a spin, please provide some feedback as it does help!

So you are designing/building a sequel to Earth defense  :o  :)


No, its my own fiction and doesn't feature anything from the xcom universe   ;)

Just a small note, ive just been updating to the latest build and realised that due to recent updates in gitbuild "built 2015-06-21 " you need to include the language file from xcom1 in the BFM folder.

Clearly the next version will be up to date :o

I like this whole concept, I like what I see so far.

I'll offer whatever help I'm able, if you want. I love this idea and I want to see it grow into something beautiful :3

if you replace xcom with aliens and aliens with xcom you get xcom from the point of view of aliens.
also this mod feels like xcom 1.5 the war on mars after cydonia .

regardless great work looks nice gave you 5 stars on mod site very well done. the map looks great even as it is.

one interesting thing about this mod unlike all ther xcom games you can place the base anywhere on the globe and ships can crash anywhere and still be recoverable as the whole globe is ground no water .

[edit] you should ask hobbes to donate you some terrains maybe he has something you can use for mars.

i'm excited to see where this is going.

you could modify tftd volcanic landscape and use it on mars.  and you could modify tftd artefact site maps and tleth maps to make bases on mars  for aliens.

 8) Thank you very much for the feedback! I really appreciate it!

Still early days with BfM but things are progressing nicely, a lot of content planned and still to add. I think people will find the new base defence missions a lot of fun but will discuss that more in the future!

Atm the first aliens sprites are being created (major thanks to XOps btw) and im hoping to have some screenshots soon.

i'm excited to see where this is going.

Some tftd stuff has been used along with a fair bit of ufo stuff however I would like to say its all placeholders for now, how much will get changed depends but at the end I would like BfM to be a new resource for modders and not borrowed, recolored etc I have planned that from the start.

However stuff like the Mars tiles I don't think I could better, but the ufo tiles I could improve/change, time will tell!

Thanks again and keep tuned in  ;)

Progress towards Version 0.3 is going rather well!

Added in so far, we have the Tauran soldier and the Tauran scout drone (which is 90% finished gfx wise).

The first of the alien weapons are in, the Tachyon Rifle or Tac Rifle is the standard firearm used by Tauran soldiers and is rather nasty.

Left to do is 1 more alien weapon and some database entries. Also I've started work on a new geoscape! which will be finished for version 0.3

Anyway enjoy some pictures  8)
