Now I need to make a little announcement about this AAR.

Future updates will be ...




... he he he, who asked for a dramatic pause? Call the expert! ...





... a bit scetchy for a while. Probably a week or two. I have a pneumonia right now, so I don't feel like playing as much.

Ouch, get well soon! Take care of yourself and come back.

BTW starting today, the crop circles missions no longer have a hard cap at 10 turns... Now they use the new reinforcements mechanics. And it's rad as hell.

Hmm, I never had problem doing them in 10 turns. Does the shit hit the fan earlier now? I will have to check when I get Crop Circles again.

No, there is no change in the number of turns. And indeed finishing the mission wasn't hard. But now you have the option to overstay and probably get massacred.

Lets go hit some Russians with Desert Eagles. What could possibly go wrong.

Turns 1 and 2.

I decided to run this one in the day so that they will concentrate on my shield boys, but this sailor had a sailor kick to do.

I was searching for a depressing swing song that had some laugh "Hou hou hou HOU, Ha ha ha HA" but alas, my google fu has failed me for the last time.

Outcome of the mission. Somewhat mixed. I shouldn't have lost the two better agents, but oh well. I guess I need the Dragonfly for this daylight stuff.

Next mission is some Crop Circles. Apparently the Rookie Van will take forever to get into place.

Turns 1 to 4. Yep. It's a good thing we got that financial injection to replace some old faces.

Turns 5 to 7 or 8. Those cannot even hit the wide side of a barn. At least the MiBs aren't much better.

Outcome.

I think that my Agents got the Coronavirus. They fall like flies. Or may be it is acute explosives and bullets allergy. We may never know!
