Two questions:
1) When to I get let out to be killed by the Aliens. I really want to stick my head down a cannon.
2) Are my stats that bad that I'm still @ base after c. 3 missions.

I would certainly like a crack at those aliens to avenge my identical twin brother smile

1) That can be arranged, we have to assault that base and they camp in the command center with guided mininukes. However, aliens can't reload.
2) :< I'm not getting enough people killed. Will try harder next time.

No those are obsolete. Remove them and build something else in the same plots

LOL we really need to maintain a death list and list of people who want to be recruited.

Also, if you guys really want casualties since not enough people got killed on the latest missions, I can always raid that alien base next time I'm up. :neenernee

Better idea, instead of more casualties we've got new bases coming online. The new recruits can be deployed there, instead.

Each base needs atleast 1 recruit or it will be taken over automatically by the aliens. You can fill the rest with general stores and lazer tanks.(up to 11)

I think we would need to research -- and build -- some laser tanks first. lol

We definitely need some troops at each new base, though. Given tank costs, we could just send a bunch of recruits instead. Make sure there are enough weapons and ammo clips in stores, plus some grenades, medikits, flares, etc. And as our working Skyranger team get upgraded to better armor we can use the older stuff to equip our base defenders.

For recruit names, I guess we need to start version 2's of many of our supporters. Or else comb the site for more names. lol

v8mark, not sure what happened -- I am 99% certain I named a recruit for you during one of my turnsets. Maybe he is still in base? Or perhaps that was just before we lost all but one team member on that mission....

Also, I agree with Ug that we need to be researching the new fighter craft. And we can replace the small and large radar (be careful not to disconnect any modules!). What to put in their place, though? Do we want/need any defenses? Or do we just fight it out if we get attacked? Against battleships, anything less than Fusion Ball defenses just aren't really worth much anyway.
