This looks pretty much like tribal "snow armor". Only this one is black.

[Solarius Scorch]

The Princess is only one.

[niculinux]

[LytaRyta]

Sorry, Maisha it's her name in the italian edition

Did you react, answer to me?

anyway, Maisha is sweet name, for her,
very cute. :p
it sounds et resembles almost as russian *Masha" [Maasssha]

[chaosshade]

uhh... Nailgun?

[legionof1]

There is one that could be lifted from X-com files. I'd be more interested in what the brainers would "upgrade" it too.

[LytaRyta]

..screwdrivers, pliers, drills, , multitools, etc..

kombinacky, klieste, "francuzsky kluc, mont-paky,
+ matice, sroby, skrutky, klince, atd. etc..

~~ bigger & smaller plasta^steel forming^ tools and machineryies

~~ just  complete *technician pack, and engineering set box

[Martin]

A lot of UAC stuff could be picket form X-Com files but IDK if another gun  with slightly different stats that now cannot be used in space because it is a knock off is meaningfull adition.

[LytaRyta]

ha! i got 1idea!

*Hand of God" ~~~ from Rise of the Triad (RotT, 1996)

How would Cyberspace missions sound? You install a Hacking Deck in your base, and you can send your gals on Cyberspace missions to steal data and money, and also sabotage enemy bases. Maybe the academy has a base full of robots, and you can go on a Cyberspace mission to hack the robots and have them destroy the base.

[Dakkdakk]

That sounds pretty cool actualy. Hacking missions could work like zero g missions, with gals being forced to use a special cyberspace outfit thing, with the only weapons avaliable being the "armor"s special abilities.

One thing I always thought would be cool in xcom games, but that I don't know if its even possible to implement in OXCE: have certain missions have a kind of trigger in them, a kind of condition that once satisfied, would "unlock" a special mission on the map, that wouldn't otherwise normally spawn. Then you could, for example, do a mission with a special condition tied to a kind of switch in the map, that once activated, would give you, say, coordinates to a secret enemy base, which would then spawn as a mission on the map if you activated that trigger.

[Alex_D]

Those hacking missions sound like the Dreamscape missions that were implemented in XCF, albeit with a different tone.
The mission force a specific outfit for the soldier.  Spawn points for only one soldier are allowed (and I believe single craft pilots, but I can't confirm).

Piratez does this (in a way - limited by what the engine allows) with special items that are gathered after a mission - for example Siberia Research. Or the entire GDX questline. After you research a given item, mission that gives is removed from spawn pool, so can be considered one-off. Some missions can be repeated until the item is researched, but this is only done to defend against freak accidents. Eg. you somehow - say, too much nukes - destroyed all the research items while actually winning the battle.

The problem with such 'one-time-unlocks' is that custom missions (or missions in general) are time consuming to create and one-offs are a lot of effort for little gain.

Personally, I would consider hacking a bit too 'techy' for piratez, but I guess adventure can be had in different ways.
