I practically deserve to be on the Hall of Fame for my heroic efforts cut-short by a mind-controlled ally.

lets get to mission,so i can spend it whole in skyranger,training Bernie to eat Sectoids

Lets stand in the same exact pose as we lay around in the Skyranger for 60 turns.
Then we run out, walk into a building, all stand in a clump, then have a soldier shoot a rocket and throw a grenade into the middle and watch us all die.

Mission 18: Small landed UFO-35
Skyranger-2, daytime

Abi79 heads out first, spotting a sectoid south-east of the Skyranger and zapping it.

A1s, Taikara and SailorMars leave the Skyranger and spread out.

*next turn*

A1s scouts the area around the UFO.
Taikara spots a sectoid near the UFO and kills it with a carefully aimed shot.

PrejudiceSucks and Frags head out and search. That's not a guarantee you'll get some action, but at least you can't complain about being stuck on the back of the Skyranger all day.

SailorMars heads south and spots a sectoid, though she doesn't have time to shoot it so she ducks behind some trees.

PrejudiceSucks takes down the sectoid that SailorMars previously spotted.

Frags and Efthimios head into the UFO while the rest wait (no more aliens outside).

*some turns later*

With their plan in mind, Frags heads through one side of the UFO and Efthimios through the other. They get to the bridge and Efthimios fires a stun grenade knocking down both sectoids on duty, while Frags runs for the engine room and takes down the sectoid there.

MISSION ACCOMPLISHED

Here's another one of my wacky plans to help on our troublesome situation. It's 23rd May 1999 and we've took care of the infiltrator UFO on Canada, though no idea if there were more we didn't detect.

Anyways, there's still a landed (large) UFO on USA, though it's not gonna stay there forever. So my reasoning is, to improve our score the best we can, I redirect Skyranger-1 to it so we can take care of it before it takes off. The alien base isn't going anywhere and since we still got a week later on this month we can take care of it later, and it'll look better on our score if we manage to take care of both the alien base AND a large ufo.

So what do you all think? Too risky or should I go with it?

No promotions?

See, your tactic of sitting in the back of the Skyranger doesn't work.

EDIT: SupSuper, as it's Skyranger-1, it's okay by me! My behind is safe anyway.

Ohh yeah make that 2 kills in 2 missions :Titan:

YES!!! Take that you alien scum, mess with the best, die like the rest, :bleh: I say we go for that plan, yes take em all down. 'Adjusts sun glasses' :max:

The cosmic forces are with me!

It's time to kick behind and chew bubble gum...and I'm all outta gum :sniper:
