uh.... about that... i play Apocalypse just fine in XP... i just cant get the sound to work

pretty much finished all the research just formatted comp though so have to reinstall stuff. But yeah i still avoid etheriels until i get enough psi strong troops... only have 3 so far :S

yup ^^. going against alien base 7 now... which i figure is an etheriel base as all the supply ships and battleships land on it have etheriels.... but yeah.... soon soon ill be able to do stuff ^_^

heh.... yeah after my encounter with an Etheriel Battleship ive decided to skip 90% of the larger etheriel ufo's... then i decided to take out an alien base and go figure etheriels buuuuut as i ended a turn then heard a blaster bomb heading for my guys a great wonderful thing happened. The etheriel blaster bomb didnt make it. it just blew up prematuraly. This killed 9 etheriels and 2 sectopods. then i just blaster bombed the control center killing anoter 5 etheriels. then after that just hunted down the last etheriel and killed him. nonetheless lost 4 troops and a tank in said excursion -_-'

Good god.... havent picked up UFO in sooo long.... was going quite well had all original members of my squad. havent encountered any psionics and its august of 99... well.... shot down a terror ship... with etheriels... yeah went in with a plasma tank and 10 troops in flying suits... came out with 2 troops... but i beat them ^_^... kinda crippled me for the rest of the month though

nah a blaster bomb or a disruptor torpedo would just kinda kill it hell even a bio drone... i haaaaate bio drones >_< EDIT: what i would like to see is a 1v1 with no weapons. just to see which one takes over the other one.

psh dont you know ^_^ thats their high end espionage agents with top of the line invisibility cloaks

uh.... i kind of find TFTD harder (and buggier) than the other releases.... i mean... its just... the lobsterman... the tentulacuts and the bio drones.... o-O

aren't Mutons purple o-O. thought the green was their camoflauge clothing

i think Apoc could have been alot better if it were finished (duh) or at least that it latsed longer. i hate how you can just power through the game and just cream the aliens in their dimension and everything just sits there to the point that you get bored equip an anhilator with disruptor weapons a few shields and single handedly level the city (with manual control of course) or you could raid the COS multiple times and get a ridicoulous score but it gets kinda monotonous... it went to the point that i actually cultivated aliens allowing some ships to make it and drop guys off in the city and i would just randomly dispatch troops to some locations... buuuuuuuuut Apoc is still my fav i think EDIT: question. is there an editor that changes the frequency/amount of aliens that show up/get dropped off? if there is what is it?

hmm had the most problems with Terror... apoc it hit a point (when you get disruptor armor) that you are nigh invincible if properly used. UFO was fairly hard whith the chrysilads and the Etheriels but again you hit a point and you just shrug it off... in Terror... bio drones and Lobstermen just...just.... kill me everytime no matter what. takes a few hits to knock them down and more just pop up... *sighs* anyways i think ill try playing that again soon... stupid win xp...

anyone have this bug with a pirate base? it said that pirate base structure was -0km and that it was always behind me -_- just wondering if that is a problem also..

I thought they officially cancelled Alliance?

one question.... does anyone know where this will end up? more political right now or more of the defend mankind or both CoS does more stuff. whats happening?!?!?

*steps out of temporal vortex....* hmm be posting ideally in a few days.... one more exam to go then done for just under a month *sucked back into the world of university science...... (shudders....) *
