Ages-old military saying: "Never, ever pick up a bar of soap... and if you really have no other choice than to do so, at least make sure you're backed up against a wall."
That X-Com chappie is a dead duck... screwed.

What's the name of the new, free x-com clone games already? UFO something-something...
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
There's one called UFO: Extraterrestrials, which is an "inspired by" type of game, and probably the one you're thinking of.
And there's also a game called Project Xenocide, which is pretty much a straight-up remake of the original X-Com, except it's still in early alpha stages.

Best game ever made, there needs to be more xcom fanart.

I've been playing X-COM for the first time. I've been following a Let's Play--a couple, actually--on the SomethingAwful forums and wanted in. Incidentally, the LP just got past a Chrysalid-based storyline wherein the entire nation of Japan was taken over by the bastards.
I've not reached them yet because I keep getting slaughtered in the first mission... on Beginner. To quote a wiser man than I, "Damn I suck!"

I hate your walls, X-com.
Oh, how I hate them.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Walls are obviously there to be blaster launcher'd.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
They are there simply to be the bane of my existence.

Good thing the bastard doesn't have the "Prime raep" and "Throw" options 
And the soap- picking guy better have a primed demo charge in the backpack.

Oh man... that game's awesome. Did you play squad command for the nintendo DS? That game was so obviously a pathetic x-com rape.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
You mean Rebelstar Command? That was made by the same people who made the original X-COM.

6 of the best-trained soldiers on Earth: $144.000
The heaviest and most powerful weapons and armour availiable to Mankind: $350.000
Losing your entire squad in one turn to a Chryssalid: priceless.
Well, not really. More like $1000 to replace the computer you just threw out of the window in rage.

Nice one. You should go work for those guys.
Excellent orchestrated humor, BTW.

Oh... yeah, those Cryssalids where a pain in the ass. Nothing a heavy Plasma Cannon couldn't handle though. But at the Start of the Game, specially during Terror Missions those Guys where real bastards.

oh dude, I had my rookies with standard rifles shoot all stand around one once just to take it down. It took 8 people taking two burst shots each to kill it.
