I can see that we're going to meet Shaojie on 8.

9 is probably St. Johns, since it's the only point in both XCOM games where there's an airstrike.

Well, that mission in Xcom was called Site recon I think and I know that Gangplank one of the Slingshot missions. The last one I think, so I think was don't have a Night of the Chryssalids mission, I think.

12 is either where we meet with Annette Durand, while 14 is...yes, I remember. It has connections with 12.

9 is probably that.

19 is probably the last mission on Operation Slingshot where we raid the Battleship but meet against far weaker enemies than the ones we usually encounter in the Battleship.

EDIT: I didn't saw the 19 one, sorry.

You're actually pretty close. Some are right, some aren't, but I'm not saying which.


Hey Rel: it was never specified where Cpl. Cruise was but I assumed she was on some high ground of sorts given that she had a clear shot against the Seeker that attacked Konayama, but that is all subjective. As for the stimulants, I'd say 17 minutes is average but it would likely vary a little bit depending on body type. I may be wrong but little Konayama would probably metabolize the stimulant a bit faster than someone larger, so she may well crash before the 17 minutes is up. You don't have to change anything but maybe something to keep in mind.

I assumed low level buildings, so the seeker would be extremely close to Cruise for her to get a line of sight.

Probably on the duration, I was thinking that she'd experience a more potent effect but give way earlier too, depending on her activity.

That works. And heads or tails really on the stimulant.

I like the way you think, pal.

Also how PG-13 is NationStates really? Is it just sexual stuff that's off limits?

Sexual, Gore, or anything that would give a movie an R rating. Cursing seems to be fine, but I assume that if 99% of what you say is an F-bomb or something else then someone may take exception. In any case I ask that no one try to push the boundary simply because they can.

Probably would wait till Parcia posts or a conclusion to Cruise's seeker battle is over.

Meanwhile, 2nd char incoming in case Milky gets snuffed.

I think Dera wanted to be one but he's gone as well. So I'll make it open again if anyone wants to grab a Co-OP position.

And Colonel Reid was supposed to be our version of Bradford. Guess the person we're really missing is the "player" as their role has been broken up into the squad leaders.

As for the mental disorders, after hearing some valid arguments I respectively ask Forest to nix a few. Personally I would get rid of the anxiety disorder.

Why get rid of anxiety? That's easily the easiest one to hide from others(when I said she was calm all the time, I meant outwardly). I could get rid of the OCD(even though that's typically linked to anxiety), or even the bipolar disorder, but having both GAD and depression is a major part of her story. She would still be a revolutionary in the Middle East if it wasn't for her personality problems.

And she gets a command role, or somewhere in the Command Center?

Sorry, but even in a basic army, the moment someone shows any kind of issue listed, any sort of disorder especially mental, the trust between the man on the ground and their superiors sitting comfortable in their command centers take a hit.

Take the depression down a lower level to a section commander. My former SecCom was diagnosed with depression after a checkup during a weekend break, and he was transferred not just out of a combat battalion, but sent to a logistics division for clerical duties.

Depression is a valid case to be discharged from a professional military. Not proud to say it, but plenty of strawberries feigned Depression to escape conscription or get to go home everyday while those who suffer for real have to deal with the social fallout with people who claim to have depression.
