This won't be a normal play-through: Veteran difficulty w/ ironman, but with additional pain. Aliens can use mind control, but I will not. I won't abuse blaster bombs - they're reserved for special occasions. I also will research and equip flying suits, but will stay grounded unless I MUST fly to get an alien. This ensures chrsyallids will ALWAYS be a problem. I considered nixing explosives all-together and playing on Superhuman, but come on - I'm bad enough at turn-based strategy as is.

--- ABOUT ---

1999. You are in control of XCom; charged by the world's leaders to strike at the alien menace that's terrorising the Earth. At first, you'll scan, track, and shoot down the slower UFOs, but that will just be the beginning. Whenever a UFO crashes or lands, you must be there to lead a squad of armed soldiers from building to building, street to street, using all your tactical skills to capture or destroy the aliens. If you succeed in your first missions, your scientists and engineers will copy the alien technology toc reate more powerful weapons and craft for your forces to use. Gradually, you'll build up a terrifying picture of this Unknown Enemy and their real aims and desires. Then, you'll have to work out a strategy to stop them.

One thing is certain - it won't be easy!

Features:

• Command deadly close-combat battles: shooting down UFOs is just the beginning! You must then lead a squad of heavily-armed soldiers across different terrains as they investigate the UFO crash site. Tackle the aliens with automatic rifles, rocket launchers, and even tanks in the struggle to retrieve useful technology, weapons or life forms.

• Research and manufacture alien technologies: successful ground assault missions will allow X-COM scientists to analyze alien items. Each new breakthrough brings you a little closer to understanding the technology and culture of the alien races. Once you have sufficient research data on the UFO's superior weapons and crafts, you'll be able to manufacture weapons of equal capability.

• Develop a strategy to save the Earth: you must make every crucial decision as you combat the powerful alien forces, but you'll also need to watch the world political situation. Governments may be forced into secret pacts with the aliens and then begin to reduce X-COM funding.
