So this is my sixth attempt at beating this mod in Veteran Ironman and I have to say I have been really enjoying the mod, good job to everyone that has worked on, thanks for making it.
Happily concur with Magicono, am having a blast playing TwoTS. I tried it some time back and began a game on Superhuman. My first disturbance saw my rookie seamen surrounded by Hallucinoid which made short work of the team, bringing down 2 of the horrors before they were nearly wiped, a single survivor.
A second attempt some weeks later resulted in an even gastlier scene with no kills and all hands lost.
I left the mod for a while to try Area51 and XCOM Files which I hadn't tried and eventually wanted to give this a second go, as TFTD always held a special place, bugs or not of the original.
This time on the latest release, I was fairing much better on Veteran Difficulty despite considerable losses and had a core group of developing Aquanauts. Had finally replaced the starting tech with Jet harpoons line of Weapons,
and laser tech alongside my mostly broad research as it is extensive and I couldn't help myself
Despite my generally better performance, the score didn't add up and at the end if May 2038 the Council pulled funding, bringing the war to an end.
Just started my 3rd attempt on Experienced and have to say, I'm very grateful to the developers of the mod, and OXC/OXCE team. Really enjoying things and looking forward to future updates.
Again, thank you!
Maybe I can make it to 2039!
