I wasn't sure if I should put this here, because it's a member created work, or in Other Games, because it's not Halo related, so if I've made a mistake, would a Mod please move this to the appropriate forum? Other than that, Welcome to my new writing project! Here's the deal, I've been playing XCOM: Enemy Unknown for a while, and I love it. So I had this idea a while back: The commander must receive reports about his missions, right? (RIGHT?!?!?) So I decided I'd write de-breifings to my missions. Now you may be asking: "BUT BOOOS? WAT DOO DAT MAEN?" Because apparently I think you talk like that No offense... This means, as I do my current play-through of XCOM, I'll write real reports of my missions, along with some in between stuff, such as Commander's Logs, Personal journals, Radio Logs, and if the inevitable occurs, Eulogies for my soldiers. Which means, everything you're about to read, is a creative play-by-play of what ACTUALLY happens when I play. ENJOY! MISSION 1 Operation Vengeful Sentinel Cologne, Germany March 1st, 2015 Squad members: Rookie Holly Lee Rookie Saida Isra Rookie Sarah Mcintosh Rookie Karen Jensen Mission Brief: Abductions in the German Mainland. Big Sky dispatched with Strike 1. Orders are to eliminate Alien presence on sight. Mission details: Big Sky touched down at 1:30 A.M. Local. Strike One deployed in the commercial district of Cologne. Rookie Isra made contact with invaders at 2:00 A.M, (Isra scored XCOM's first kill seconds after contact) Enemies responded with hostile force. (Enemies utilize some form of superheated plasma weapon, recommend collection for further study) At 2:10 A.M. Rookie Jensen made contact with a second group of E.T.'s in the Eastern Warehouse. (Jensen also scored a kill shortly after contact) Rookie Isra was pinned by enemy fire on the opposite side, near the Western building. Enemy suppresive fire was lifted by a well-placed frag grenade from Rookie Mcintosh. Rookie Lee entered the Warehouse, and eliminated the final Alien in the Operational Zone. Big Sky returned, and Strike 1 was evacuated at 3:12 A.M. No casualties, no injuries. Kill Count Lee: 1 Isra: 1 Mcintosh: 1 Jensen: 1 Central Officer Bradford's notes: It couldn't have been easy being the first ones to go out on a mission, but our team pulled through. I'm recommending promotions for all four squad members, and specialized training as well. Lee has some Medical experience, so I recommend she take a support role. Isra's pretty strong (And pretty loud, but that's just between you and me, Commander.) I recommend she be given a Machine gun, and let her figure out the rest. Although it didn't show in this mission, Mcintosh is one of our best shots, and with enough time, she could be a devious marksman. I don't like Jensen's reckless attitude, but she got results, getting the first kill on the books, which means I owe her a drink. I say give her a shotgun, and let her work her magic. Other than that, I think we've done well for ourselves. But I wouldn't get too comfortable. There are still a lot of countries that haven't checked in yet. I recommend we bolster our ranks, and start researching these... things. Dr. Vahlen is ready and waiting for you when you have a moment. Non-Combat Information: None at this time.

I pre ordered it after I saw some videos on youtube and thought how great it was. XCOM itself has been around for a while anyone out there who played the older games have thoughts on this latest XCOM? Info on the game: http://thecontrolleronline.com/2012/10/xcom-enemy-unknown-hands-on-preview/
