..... i think i'm about to lose my first campaign, as i have too many countries on red alert and not enough funds!
well, guess what ... just managed to finish my first campaign after all. although i had 4 countries pulled out, managed to stabilise the panic level, improved my funding (i also removed all the interceptors once i got my firestorms armed with plasma cannons ... the interceptors were costly to maintain if u look at the finances) and build up my army of colonels. looking back, started the game on 13 Oct and only today managed to finish it. i play slowly .... tongue.gif

btw, hate the Sectopods! esp when u get 2 of them on a single mission. but on the other hand, squad sight with plasma sniper & 100% aim ftw!

time to start round 2 ...

Just started over the weekend and I'm losing too much sleep over this game.

Sectopod commanders mind controlling your players makes for crazy tense situations. Funsome.

Finally completed my first playthrough on normal. Thanks to the tips that I picked up from lurking in xcom threads, I managed to get 100% satellite coverage thumbup.gif

Now i fully understand the difference between sectoid commanders and sectopods. Oh they're both equally fun lol.

I tried the demo and immediately like it.

I used to spend hundreds of hours playing the PC version of XCOM2 TFTD.
