I can't stay away.

Name: Tuxedo Ted
Gender: Male
Appearance: Random is fine, but if that isn't possible make him a clean shaven African with short hair like last game
Soldier Class: Specialist; every group needs a nerd.

And as for the prestige class... I can't say no to Frakes. Make it a Reaper.

I’ll get Billy and Junpei in later. Holy crap this takes forever!

Time to bash my head against gatecrasher a few times until I get it right. Will do subtitles as a result since I’m not commentating videos I’m not sure will work!

e: got it in one try? That...that can't be right...

The turn one total pod elimination to overwatch magic holds true!

How are you still alive, Apples?

Clown car zombies.

PS4 chugging aside, I do like the puzzle-like aspect to the Lost.

I'm very excited to get to go on a covert mission this time around. eating only apples, I promise I'll bring your cool jacket back with only a few bloodstains.

Oof, careful with the death flags there

Bob Deadford does not get cold. Cold gets Bob Deadford!

Ok, that sounded a lot better in my head.

I think I might be falling for Deadford. That voice pack is the perfect fit.

Wow, that sucked. Ricky was just a few days away from earning his wings, too.


But hey, on the bright side, they didn't take down the get-well balloons in Apples' hospital room yet, so they can re-use them.

Well that title doesn't bode well.

Wait, "dies offscreen"? That sounds like a new level of unfair bullshit.

I'm guessing that's just "dies during the lost footage".

This wouldn't have happened if he hadn't been wearing all those layers.

That went well! I really appreciate the enthusiasm the VA for Kaishai's voicepak put into everythingvthey say.

Awww man. See ya, Bonnie.

She set the death flags ages ago so we should've really seen it coming.


This mission made me incredibly anxious. Held your nerve way better than I would've

I was just kidding about those death flags, dammit! What a rough way to start the day.


(Kaishai was finally gonna buy that sailboat once this was all over, too)

Aw man. :( From bad to worse to worst.

Edit: Yeah, "worst" is pretty harsh, that was an impressive turnaround. Still a bummer, though.

Oh boy, what a rough week at work. Time to cheer up on my first morning off in a while by catching up on my favorite tactical action LP.



Oh no.

Episode 30.




That was pretty rough.

(Welcome to the team, all you 15 supply units. I'm thinking about starting up a tontine. Either of you want in on this, Grapplejack and Kringel? And uh, have fun in the pods for the next few months, Obelus and Shephard.)

My old friend Ted looks a bit different these days...

Yeah, this sure is a look, alright.

oh god i didn't even notice the greasy ponytail the first time, it pairs horribly with the muttonchops


Hahaha, the 'random appearance' option is paying dividends here, I love it!

Christ. I shouldn't have gloated about not getting shot last time. Not after the way these VIP rescue missions have gone lately. :sadwave:

I'm sure your memorial photo will be tasteful in the few seconds it's shown before it gets deleted. :shobon:

You're a grenadier going on a VIP rescue mission. I have bad news, apples.

No no no, don't you see? Your gloating is what carried you through that last mission. Backing up now is only inviting disaster; you gotta double-down!

Like this: I cost forty supplies and I am gonna live forever!

We will nevertheless continue and win this campaign, but you have no idea how much cursing I did at a certain point in tomorrow’s episode. You’ll know it EXACTLY when you see it.

To those about to die, we salute you!

And a fond farewell to Apples and Deadford as well. What a bloody week is has been.

The little squaddies that could! Big laffo at the sectopod faking Reign out like that. Looming over him only to spin 180 degrees and go after the turncoat across the map.

"yeah, I was with XCOM. Only got sent once though. I did get to kill a sectopod!"

"yeah, yeah, cool story Frank..."

"The sectopod actually fell on me! Check out the scar it left!"

Honestly, with the way other missions have gone you couldn't ask for a better tenure with XCOM. Show up for one mission, take on a big bad, complete the objective with aplomb, then retire (maybe with promotion) and never go on a squaddie grinder mission again.

Oh my god, what a massacre for the Warlock. Teleporting right in the middle of an XCOM squad with no Advent backup? Poor guy barely got a single shot off, and it missed.

That's pretty hard to recover from.
