XCOM Enemy Unknown (The Facebook Saga #12)

Squad report 12

Operation: Dying Fist

Squad lineup:

  • MAJ."Spider" O'Hare (Sniper/Second in command)
  • MAJ."Crater" Senghaas (Demolitions/Team leader)
  • CPT."Boomer" Moore (Pointman)
  • CPT."Cash" Monsegue (Assault specialist)
  • SQ. Stevens (Enginner/Sniper)
  • RK. E.Senghaas (Assault/Scout)





While Operation "Bloody King" proved fatal for SGT."Crash" Parker, it alerted XCOM command that they had become complacent. Thinking they had already given the soilders the best armor and weapons the possibly could, they stopped all research into furthering the technology they aquired from missions past.

After mere hours of debate, XCOM command granted an unlimited fund to the Research and Engineering departments so that the soldiers will always have THE most powerful weapons and armor that earth can provide. 

The first such advanced armor is what is being called the "TITAN" armor.
This armor renders the wearer virtually unstoppable. Aside from boosting the wearer's physical attributes (speed, strength etc) it also makes them fireproof, water proof, weather proof. The suit has a self circulating filtration system which means the wearer will never be poisoned by any form of gas, man made or otherwise.

This new suit of armor was issued to  Captain Moore as he, more than any other soldier, needs it the most. Being the point man, he will need as much protection as he can get as he storms fearlessly (and most times blindly) into enemy positions.

The development teams are still hard at work to produce even more armors with varying purposes.

Operation "Dying Fist" was another UFO crash site sanitation. This time, the Squad had no team medic. XCOM command deemed that for this particular mission, no medic was needed but instead they introduced an Engineer (SQ Stephens) and a Scout (RK E.Senghaas). 

RK E.Senghaas is every bit as dangerous as her husband.
Interesting note, Rookie E.Senghaas is indeed Major Senghaas' wife. This was noted by the command staff and due to the nature and severity of the alien invasion, they had no choice (and no other soldiers trained as scouts) but to put them on the same team.









Politics aside the team ventured forward to complete their objective.

This time led by MAJ "Crater" Senghaas, the team played everything by the book. The chain of command remained solidly intact as MAJ Senghaas gave orders to the troopers while continuing to suppress or explode the enemies in his sight.

In the end, the mission was yet another stunning success and many artifacts were recovered! I wonder what the boys and girls in R&D will come up with next?
