  1. Hello all. I have recently heard about this game and am quite interested. New to the series, my past experience is limited to UFO:ET with Bman's mod which I have been playing the last few days. I'm more interested in this games take on the franchise, however, and will get a premium licence whence I can afford such luxuries next pay cycle (spent my fortune on Pabst Blue Ribbon this time around, sadly). I've been a fan of strategy games since Shining Force on the Genesis, but my tastes have been refined to tactical shooters like BF2:PR and ArmA, and realistic tactical/strategy games like Xenonauts and the aforementioned UFO:ET. I consider these games to be realistic because of how the AP system is implemented, especially the ability to set up ambushes with unused AP and how easy it is to take and lose lives. It really forces one to use actual squad tactics and not just run forward guns blazing, energy sword shimmering, and bigoted remarks spewing forth upon anyone wielding shotgun like in certain evil practices too wicked to name. In all honesty I can't even play games that don't at least attempt to simulate realistic combat anymore. I wish more games had a combat model similar to this and I hope to encourage those in charge as much as possible. Oh yeah, and the individual in pages past who said the lasers should have beams and not some sort of energy 'bullet' is totally right!
