That alien wasn't in the game when they made it, but there's a mod for openxcom which adds it.
-
In Britain, X-Com: Ufo Defence was called
UFO
Enemy Unknown.
With the UFO in big letters, it screamed out at anyone who had seen the Gerry Anderson series

I played the basic game last year, and the first mod I'll apply on an OpenXcom game is the no psionics alteration.
Before I had it, it was a real pain when fighting Sectoids, but once I learnt that ability, I set up training centres to discover Psi super-soldiers. After it, became far too easy to win the battles.

Can't train privates?
Surely they should be able to stand up straight at attention...
-
You'd better be good lest we add a hot drink and Flambé Pancakes.
-
Perhaps the civilians are looking for a fire?
-
Nothing is brighter than the fire that burns within our 'Special Inquisitors' who no one expects, as they deploy that most horrible of devices:
THE COMFY CHAIR!

As Commissar Pancakes is referring to people as posters, this would suggest that he is suffering from some kind of:
Posterlence!
If this is the case then everyone in this thread may be tainted with the touch of chaos and disease, from the Dread Carrier of Illness.
I would recommend nuking this thread from orbit, as it's the only way to be sure.

Someone bathed in the holly flames of (in)sanity.
Oh no! Someone's setting holly bushes on fire! If the bushes were dirty, then they could be:
The Holly flames of insanitary...

Maybe the civilians weren't En-light-ened, but more En-light-up...

Congratulations on bringing the game to this point, Chris. All I have to do now is kill the aliens.

Sky Bird: Male Shield/Medic
Unless you want Fighter pilots as well, in which case it'll be callsign Skybird.

I recall Chris clarifying it is pronounced as in "Season".
So, when you are are firing at them, Is it "Open Season"

Music to my hears
If we end up having to use OG tactics then we might as well play the OG instead. "Nothing new to see here, move along."
-
So, if we have the situation of aliens opening fire at the moment a door is opened, the solution is simple.
Buy a bunch of rookie Redshirts whose job is to open the door and get shot at. Once the aliens have used up their TU's send the experienced soldiers around the corner to slaughter the aliens.
-
It's irritating to have a soldier survive by the skin of his teeth, then immediately die due to wounds before you can do anything.
If a situation like that happened to a soldier, it would be nice if you could revive and treat him, if you can get to him before the player turn ends. The wounded soldier should be critical but stable, and out of combat for the remainder of the battle.

Calm down, Mr Pancakes, there's no need to make a meal out of it...
-
Commissar Pancakes, if you're a homicidal breakfast food, does that mean you are a Cereal killer?
-
But Pancakes, I would say that it's just at an emberyonic stage at the moment...

Please Kevin, we need to avoid heated exchanges...

This is an earlier Firestarter FS9-H.
However I have no wish to start a flame war.

Maybe the soldiers on the hire list are the ones that can handle X-Shock better than anyone else. A bit like being able to deal with Z-Shock in the book 'World War Z"

Oh, oh, there's going to be a lot of Fallout from this one...

I've heard that they are starting on Open TFTD at the moment.
