Hello again.
Welp, out of blue, I decided to do XCOM Chimerian Squadron. And also - I decided to actually to integrate it into Season 1 events. Yes, that's right - this is canon to the canon adventures of Resolutor, Wrath Seeker and other people in WOTC timeline.
I personally don't enjoy this game much, but in order to give you something to watch while I think about XCOM 2 TSE episodes, I decided that I could actually do this game. I still am not quite proficient with Apocalypse (I need to complete it on Superhuman first, and only then I'm going to think about recording it), so that's why I've picked Chimerian Squadron.
Because Sonic and XCOM related stuff on this channel had their description quirks, I've decided to do a similar thing here.
This time it will be a short lore story from the Jared Hill's point of view, the same guy who was in XCOM 2 WOTC LP Season 1 and who was presented as an actual storyteller of the LP events + XCOM Dossiers.
Every episode is going to have this storyline, but in text form, so sit tight for a ride. And oh yeah, the second version of the finale (the one which had Wagnerson and other UFO Defense originating soldiers) is the canon one.

Yay, this ADVENT storage disk actually reads XCOM-based computer systems. Welp, time to try to do some texting here, because I enjoy it a lot.
I don't know if this will become public or not, but anyway... This is Jared Hill, writing from the bridge of the Avenger, HQ of our organization.
...I really can't say how happy I could be with the fact that the Ethereals have been killed in action! Six of our soldiers, along with the Commander himself, made a daring attempt to breach the stronghold of the aliens - and in turn, destroyed them all from within their security. I'd love to see everything what happened there, but according to what I've heard from the Commander himself, everything looked exactly like we've already seen on this adventure. But underwater.
I'd be happy if not for several facts. First, XCOM-based ones. I don't know what exactly made her behave like that, but it has been confirmed through internal camera footage that Claudia Weber (Wagnerson) stole the legacy XCOM prototype weaponry, along with Opposing-Forc and Jorge Ibanez, and left the Avenger. I thought that, honestly, this victory should have had allowed her to finally find her inner peace. But now it isn't an option.
Bradford had ordered to find her along with the weaponry she stole already. What is interesting is that he clearly demanded her to be alive... and unharmed? This is weird - during the stay Weber shouted at Central a lot using heavy profanity. Even the Commander couldn't enforce her to be quiet - but it was still a progress from when I've found her at East Russian base in the previous winter, when she cried because John was still alive.
Central though - I've heard his side of the story about the betrayal of Weber during the initial invasion. Yet Opposing-Forc said that John was a horrid commanding officer, (by his admission) rephrasing the words from Claudia herself. I'm still not sure why Central wanted her back... though I did see his eyes aiming with interest at her from behind while the war was still ongoing...
John, I'm eventually going to find out if you actually wanted her to be on Avenger because you wanted to have an eye candy.
The world at large went quite hot. I've been seeing constant reports of the Resistance combating disoriented ADVENT troopers in city centers, with Reapers maraudering everything they see on the path. Constant gunshots are heard even from here... Lots of new recruits went to Resistance cells of their region, the aliens also went rogue with shooting everything on sight.
Our current job is to find the biggest battle and intervene. Shoot everything non-human and get out. Solve the problems, do it effectively. If we don't want to, we can leave XCOM now without any repercussions. We've did our part of the job and heralded as heroes whenever we go. ADVENT propaganda helped each of us to get famous.
As for myself - during the war I've been doing the dossiers on each soldier. Maybe someday I'll reveal them, but not while they're not ready. It could be my way to get money after all, but I need to get permission from other XCOM soldiers while doing so. I respect them all, so I'm gonna try it.
...uh, what's this? I see a letter, let's open it... It is written - "Let's meet on the Skyranger's landing pad in the evening, Jared...".
...wait. Now is the evening! I've gotta go now!
