Have you considered posting a picture and brief preview of what you plan to be drinking?
Also I don't think I've seen a single beer that both advertised how strong it was and also wasn't garbage that tasted like battery acid

Crashes aside, I haven't played WOTC but everything it adds seems to be some turbo bullshit heavily slanted against the player. Sure you get 3 new character classes, but Mox can't hit poo poo, Psy-boys are apparently incredibly squishy, and Elenas seem to taper off in damage pretty quickly (what's the point of having a chance to stay hidden if you need multiple shots to kill anything)?
What's with the product placement for Vektor every time you line up a shot with (not) Elena? Do any other weapons have, uh, branding I guess?


Also yeah, please don't die. After this you need to do a LP with stipulations that you drink tea or sip some fine wine/actual good beer every time you score a critical success or whatever

Wait, we missed something really important. Killian "Serial" Duff has long blonde hair, glasses, and a british accent. Why have you not renamed him to "Liquid" or at least "BRRRRROTHER"?

Oh, I think I remember hearing you call him Cam a few times. It all makes sense now. Also glad to see your beer quality seems to be improving, a good oatmeal stout is a fine thing.
How else can we lower the avatar bar? Are there options beyond blowing up facilities and guerilla ops?

Crazy Achmed

Brutal. So does the chosen keep coming back randomly until you finish all those covert ops relating to her? Or does she stay down for a while after you "kill" her?
And are we allowed to beeline it to the other advent facilities and blow them up too, or do we have to do a bunch of poo poo before we can cross the map all the way to goddamn Australia?



Also I haven't watched either really but I've been told the UK version of The Office is way better than the US one

Getting revealed by planting the bomb is kind of a dick move. Not that it might have helped, but would it have been possible to get everyone on the roof (after getting Elena out), set the evac point up there and get out before the reinforcement squad could get a line on you?

Also seriously stop getting possibly-awful beer you don't like :( I'm sure there is plenty of nice beer out there available at a reasonable price

Well I was going to try to work red panda, the house cleverly into an otherwise unassuming post but seeing as everyone's just out and out saying it. Also I thought this was going to be a bunch of cringey drunken end of evangelion references.

As for Steve's accuracy, I'm sure it's just because he's been on the beers and wants his old mate Dan to get a fair dinkum few cold ones down too.

I have never understood the attraction of drinking a beer that's supposed to have had raw shellfish steeped in it

Crazy Achmed
Mar 13, 2001

Have you considered a nice oktoberfest style lager or maybe a filtered wheat beer? I'm sure Jesus and pandas would both enjoy a cool refreshing maerzen or kristallweizen.

Game chat, what's our strategy? I haven't actually played XCOM so don't really know what we should be doing, and the game seems to be throwing a ton of long term objectives at us (kill the chosen, make contact with people, blow up avatar facilities, research special stuff.) Does WOTC have some kind of unstoppable difficulty ramp-up/doomsday effect or can we theoretically just keep sending people on guerilla ops/blow up facilities to permanently stall the avatar project until we're good and ready?

Crazy Achmed

My theory is they're just sending you the ones they don't actually like

Is there some website where I can buy a beer that's not vicar's cross or oyster fuckery and have it delivered to you? I feel like this should be a thing.

Also just because I'm loving dumb, your new psy-trooper whose hair turned white is a reference to this person, right? If not then that's one hell of a resemblance

The upgraded rifle I was referring to is Begone Thot, which has a repeater and hopefully soon an extended magazine. Elena has Banish so itll make for some fun times :v: if I ever remember to actually give it to her

Can't wait until she uses this to rescue her Moxy from whatever the alien harlot is who has her claws into him

Oh, I'm just imagining the council man trying to hold his composure while the commander and his boyfriend drunkenly ramble at him for half an hour

Every month he dreads this videoconference, he's supposed to focus on hard statistics but his mind wanders off to memories of the bad old days before he went teetotal. But he knows that he has to put up with this treatment because nobody else is doing anything worth a drat against Advent (all of whom are, in fact, bastards)

Butter and beer are a great combo... if you're making a chocolate cake.

"there is certainly a resonant, ferrous tang"

Exactly what I'm looking for in both beer and chocolate cakes! That distinct taste of comping down on a screwdriver!

I wouldn't call it ferrous but just try making the cake. This one is also very good.
Trust me on this, the smell you get from the saucepan of butter, cocoa and stout/porter is absolutely freakin' amazing.

Well, that's one way to start thnigs off again :stare:
I was wondering whether you could use the shredstorm cannon to break out without bringing the roof down on everyone's heads. For that matter could you have blown your way into the cell as well or would everyone have gotten killed before they could pick up our boy and escape?

It's hard to pick the MVP on that mission, even your advent elite boi was pretty good. Got a crit, nearly killed that priest, and distracted those spectres for ages while everyone else retreated to the avenger.

Aussie, on the other hand, wasn't having a good day at all.

Can you use claymores to blow up the outside wall of the jail cell? Or are you forced to do the hack and leave via the front door again?

I can't remember but did you do solo commentary on your LP of covert action, circlmastr? If so then it was good enough to get me to try the game and get absolutely hooked on it for like 3 months solid. I fell off the wagon about 3 missions away from taking down the last mastermind.
