Let's Play OpenXcom: Now on Android!
« on: July 16, 2015, 01:13:08 pm »
I happen to like narrative LPs, and I also like the Final ModPack. So let's do both, on the Android version!

SPECIFICS:
-Android Port
-Final Mod Pack
-Veteran Difficulty
-Ironman play style
-Fighter Transports (to simulate pilots)


I'll be doing this as a screenshot LP because this way you get to see my terrible thoughts, and I'm kinda insecure about my voice  :'(

I'll be taking soldier names, personalities, weapon requests and research requests. Need at least 8 soldiers to actually get this off the ground. Should you be KIA, gimme a new soldier profile if you like and you'll have another one.

edit: Current Roster, in no specific order
Dioxine
Meridian
Nadir
Audric
Ivan Dogovich
Conrad Mazian
Liberation
also need interceptor pilots but they're relatively unimportant

Nein, hazmat suits are for US government guys... that kind which always dies in B-movies... pyromaniacs only need a little bit of luck.

Go bare-chested! :)

I had this idea of "all guys mod", replacing the female soldiers with extra 4 male soldiers (mugs taken from TFTD) which seems perfect for LP's where 100% of the crew seems male anyways... :)

The vanilla way opens people up to questioning their gender, which is always funny  ;D
I'll be keeping the Smurfette behaviour because I intend to be part of our ragtag crew  :P

Just three more to get it started, but with my tactics roughly on par with a concussed Sailor Moon villain unconventional methods, replacements will always be needed and as such I'll be taking soldiers until the campaign ends, one way or another.

Just one slot remains to be filled in the flying coffin before I kick off the narrative  :)

Edit: Two slots. My counting skills never fail to impress, eh?

I like vanilla ice cream, so lets go with the vanilla rifle.
