Let's Play 'Ironman' X-Com (OpenXCom, X-Com: Enemy Unknown) - 40
0More battling pesky aliens and general HODL are in immediate future for OpenXCom as I count down the days until first psionic test results roll in...I'm cautiously betting it won't be much of a problem as we're quite used to waiting in battles too, until that turn comes around, that is.
In Enemy Unknown, terror roils Nigerian city of Ibadan, possibly sister city of Cologne, Germany...
