Hmm... I think you cannot stun people who are on your side, i.e. your own men or MCed Aliens. I think I had them return to their normal Alien state and then stunned them.

Mmmmmmmmmmhmmmmmmmm Triscene filet with mashed potatoes and gravy...

That's awesome!

Aaaaahhhhh! Finally a thread of my likings: insane theories and Sectoid porn! The TFTD Ufopedia suggests that Aquatoids are simply Sectoids that can live under water. Obviously, they can also breathe above the waterline. Sectoids don't seem to be able to breathe under water. It is nowhere said to be that way but those SORESO stories suggest it in my opinion. Therefore, either the Aquatoads are an evolution of the Sectoids (becoming amphibious) or the Sectoids are a degeneration of Aquatiods (losing that feature). That would explain why those Sectoids are in dire need of fresh genetic material. They are even more degenerated than the already weak (according to the game's ufopaedia) Aquatoids. I think some Evil Empire From Outer Space expanded, colonializing Mars (Cydonia Mesa) and preparing to colonialize Earth (T'leth), each planet becoming some sort of "branch office" for the Empire . Apparently, the imperialist big boss bastard got a wee bit too greedy and tried to enslave some races which weren't too fond of that and eventually realized they can simply eat their former enemies. Those races are the Aliens from X-COM Apocalypse I suppose. As the big boss got snuffed out, the more distant branch offices of his empire lost contact to him and operated autonomously more or less. That would explain why they couldn't get their stuff together for some 65 or so million years.

I've had it for numerous times, that moving my soldiers caused an Alien to reaction fire and kill the soldier. You hear the poor guy's death scream but he marches on to the point where he was supposed to go. On arrival he collapses dead - at the spot where he got killed in the first place.

Sigourney Weaver for Spider. Jenette Goldstein for Ira. Micheal Biehn for Shadow. Harrison Page for Dynamo. Thomas Lister junior for Gus Tarballs. Bradley Darryl Wong as Dr. Q.

I edited astore.dat to yield a Lobbie Commander, researched that guy an wound up in T'leth. Now all I have to do is to fry all those aliens there... Thanks a lot guys! The game probably behaves that way to ensure there are Commanders in the base.

Nope, playing on the second difficulty level.

Zombie, that slideshow is awesome! Thanks a lot for uploading it! That migthy shark guy looks actually really fancy. I aslo somewhat like the graphics of the Lobsterman (well I THINK it's a lobsterman anyways).

The clips power up the weapons, I suppose. Still, it's odd to call them power clips. Why didn't they name them "Sonic [weapon] Clip"? Probably not fancy enough, eh?

Grizzly is cool for HW stuff! I used to love Bull for carrying around heavy stuff and punching down some punks in HTH. Haven't had any of the chicks, yet. Maybe Angelina Jolie could play Fox?

I remember WarGames vividly. That hax0r kid wardialing, having his girlfriend swichting on the speaker of a speech generator that got its data from a console reroute ("shall we play a game?"), the feds searching the house, ... Damn that movie was nice. I'll have to try out DefCon, too! It looks like fun to play.

Hey there! I did, indeed. But I finished researching them before abducting those Lobbie Commies. Hehe, Alien Abduction -> kidnapping Aliens for research purposes! I do have V1. I have a lot of stuff to do for work and not much spare time, so my pace at saving Earth is somewhat slow. I think next weekend I will look into it again. If everything fails, I may really end up hacking the game files to research one of those guys. Thanks a bunch for the links! I don't recall that there were so many Lobsterman Commies in a base. Wasn't there usually only 1 Commander and a heap of Navigators?

This is great, I alwasys wanted to do such a mod myself but never made it. Thanks a bunch!

Welcome aboard!
