The team commanded by Lily the dog has come to the target (in Cuba).

Turn 1.
Great! That is the guy we are here for, but he is kind of far away for immediate capture. May be we will drop some smoke and go the other way so he can come along peacefully.

OK. Time for some planning.

Turn 1. Execution.

Step 1. Try to figure out what the plan was!

Ironmanish moment 14. I accidentally stepped in the light and collected all their fire. *Sigh*

Outcome.

That grenade really broke the party. :(

I had very bad position though right in the middle of the map and surrounded from everywhere. If I was at the edge I would have had better chance. You see, excuses are easy to make. :D

Some of the team is sent on a long needed vacation. 55 days for Mulder and a month for the rest.

In retrospect of the Church of Dagon mission (the previous previous mission). It was actually an undercover agent extraction. You see, that Chosen of Dagon was actually an X-COM undercover agent. He missed or low rolled that Magnum he had. Actually it was loaded with blanks!

I might make a Grand Slam and fail all Outpost in one month!

I think it is too far for the Humvee though.

On to some Strange Creatures next. What could it be?
Zombies, Chupacabra, something useful?

We will find out sometime later!

Turn 2. Ironmanish moment 15. I forgot that CQC works even if they are looking the other way. Other stupid decisions like melee with Rats is still on.

Turn 3. I should stop underestimating these missions. As Joseph Vissarionovich used to say: Rookies are infinite, but money is not!
