Bomb Bloke Posted March 17, 2006 Share Posted March 17, 2006 I'll assume the aliens have sixteen bases, DC, and ask how many you have... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NKF Posted March 17, 2006 Share Posted March 17, 2006 I think what Bomb Bloke's trying to point out that you've only got 8 base slots. Your ultra high salary by the way, shouldn't that be a bit of a detriment? - NKF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kratos Posted March 18, 2006 Share Posted March 18, 2006 Yeah, 8 is the limit. Unless you did some hacking? Playing veteran does feel good doesn't it? - Kratos edit: Oh, and I would like to point out that 2 billion $ can result in negative drops. Unless this is just my version.

Well, i did SOME hacking on the base limit, in my version of the game, the money drops negative at 5 billion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kratos Posted March 18, 2006 Share Posted March 18, 2006 If you ever feel the need for more complexity in the battlescape, try using only conventional weaponry. My favorite being the rifle for its sniping accuracy. - Kratos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dumb_Commander Posted March 18, 2006 Author Share Posted March 18, 2006 I'l try that out, only pistols and stun rods for missions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kratos Posted March 18, 2006 Share Posted March 18, 2006 Stun rods? Wow, I thought I was crazy. - Kratos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bomb Bloke Posted March 23, 2006 Share Posted March 23, 2006 I once raided an Etheral base with three rifles and a bunch of stun rods. I think maybe two of my units lived (one I would have fired had I enough funds to replace him), but at least I got that Commander I was after.

Dumb_Commander Posted March 23, 2006 Author Share Posted March 23, 2006 Snakemen Terror MissionLocation: TokyoI've decided to play Die Hard style.One rookie soldier, without armor, has only a pistol and tonns of ammo.I got totally lucky, the soldier had multiple fatal wounds and very low HP, but he survived, tough spent two months in rehabilitation.I dont remember now what rank he has now, sarge or captain i think.

NKF Posted March 24, 2006 Share Posted March 24, 2006 Quite a rewarding experience though, isn't it? By the way, how did you handle the chryssalids? They've got quite tough hides and a fair amount of health so it would take you a while to deal them in with the pistol. Did it involve shooting away stairs? That's what I would've tried, at least. The sheer amount of chryssalids that can appear on a terror mission tends to make the temporary reaction fire confusion a bit less effective. - NKF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dumb_Commander Posted April 4, 2006 Author Share Posted April 4, 2006 Nah, i had to use multiple gas stations, these bastards a prety hard on superhuman--Just had a battleship making a terror mission in Chicago.Damnit, that battle ship was full, litelary, the whole butload of different aliens, allmost any species exept the sectoids. I had to abort the mission in the end. Why? because i was out of ammo and the corpse ammo was used to.And i lost one of my BEST OF THE BEST men, a commander with very high stats, his name was Robert Lurich, thats my fathers name.

Mouse Nightshirt Posted April 16, 2006 Share Posted April 16, 2006 I know this reply is late, but can I tell you that you missed April Fools day by 2 weeks on your first post and 3 days on your last. 1 - Battleships dont do Terror Missions2 - Only one species plus associated terrorist species attack at a Terror site.

Zombie Posted April 19, 2006 Share Posted April 19, 2006 Just to clairify, a Battleships primary mission type can be to terrorize. However, only Terror Ships can form a Terror Site. - Zombie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NKF Posted April 19, 2006 Share Posted April 19, 2006 I have to agree. Through almost a decade of playing the game, I've seen Battleships do any number of mission types - including some of the rather menial missions normally assigned to small scouts, abducters or harvester. But never have I seen it initiate a terror site. Only terror ships can do that. - NKF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mouse Nightshirt Posted April 21, 2006 Share Posted April 21, 2006 Aye, that's what I mean, Battleships cant initiate Terror Sites. Battleships can do anything else if you piss them off enough! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
