What do they do with brains that big..? What do they use them for..? :blink:

It seems they use them to mindcontrol humans :ph34r:
Beware, Aristharus. Beware.

They mindcontrol, but they don't seem to be otherwise any more intelligent than us. Dumber to be exact. Don't seem so frightening.

Horseman takes down the second sectoid in the row.

OvErLoRd spots an open door on a nearby barn.
- Hmmm... seems suspicious.
He moves in and, ZAP ZAP ZAP, dies without a chance.

*next turn*

A sectoid in a nearby building fires at Quintopotere but misses. The sectoid behind the door of doom throws a grenade at him and kills him in one big KABLAMMO!

Spookyfish moves into a nearby building and zaps a sectoid inside, hiding behind it afterwards since he spots another sectoid.

BeefontheBone takes down the building's walls so that R Havell can have a clear shot at the sectoid.

*next turn*

A sectoid fires at Jacek.
- Holy... that was close.
He fires back and with one swift shot takes it out.

*next turn*

Spookyfish is psied and panicks.

One of the sectoids wakes up:

- <Damn, those stomachaches can really be killers.>
ZAP!
- <Urgh...> *dies*
BeefontheBone - Don't these aliens know how to stay down?

Jacek takes down another alien inside a barn.

R Havell moves towards the UFO.
- Damn, where's the door on this thing?

mean while, Reamus sits inside the Sky Ranger happily listening to the melodic sounds of explosions outside the door, wondering what key the explosions are sounding in, and composing counter melodies in his head to write when he gets back to the base...He then composed a little song that goes like this...

"Sittin in the Ranger, safe outta danger! I really wish I could kick some alien SH*T!"

Actually you're inside the other Skyranger, which should be heading back to base now.


*next turn*

R Havell finally finds the door and enters the UFO. Others head towards the entrance.

*next turn*

A sectoid inside the UFO passes in front of him, spots him and runs back the opposite way.
BeefontheBone is under alien control. Spookyfish goes berserk and tries to take down the UFO's walls.

- Don't you try to run away from me.
R Havell follows and zaps the scared sectoid.

*next turn*

BeefontheBone panicks and freezes on the spot.
Fruit Pie Jones enters the UFO.

R Havell keeps exploring the first floor, spotting another sectoid and killing it like all the others.

:blink: When did you switch me from ranger one to two?

*next turns*

Jacek and Spookyfish head for the eastern entrance of the UFO. R Havell spots another sectoid and has a little plasma battle with him, both firing but none hitting :P

The sectoid then mysteriously disappears and is nowhere to be found.
- What the? Where did it go?

While Jacek and Spookyfish check out the east side and R Havell and BeefontheBone check out the west, the sectoid pops up again, behind R Havell! :blink:
- But... how did... wha...
He quickly zaps him before it has a chance to strike back.

The first floor of the UFO is secure and the team starts heading up the grav-lifts to the second floor.
