XCOM Chimerian Squadron - Episode 21
==== Began uploading on 2023, January, 21st, 21:24 ====
Hello again.
As I have no choices today, we're going to... a terror mission. It contains my rant about integrated alien civilians being utterty useless, telefrags and a grenade which gives me a very bad revelation about the game.
There's also news about WOTC's Photobooth rework in-development in XCOM 2's modding Reddit, so that's actually really great.

JARED'S MIND
BRAIN MEMORY: INVASION IS HELL, PART 4
DATE: 9-SEPTEMBER-2015
==========================
START MEMORY
Jared Hill sits with surviving civilians listeting to radio while the driver tries to fix the damage done to APC by a Sectoid. Kaitleen's bloodloss is stabilized, but it's clear she won't be of any tactical use anymore. Medic and zoo security talk with each other
Several hours inside, checking for every corner for ambushes.
None were found, we had the chance to weather our wounds.
Kaitleen is safe... but she's crippled for the rest of her life.
That's the price for doing what we considered necessary.
((AND THIS NECESSMENT ELEVATES YOU ABOVE WHAT THE ETHEREALS CONSIDER THEIR GREATEST STRENGTH))
Radio becomes more and more chaotic.
Firefight's intensifying, hearing explosions.
They belong to us - to blown-up vehicles.
It's clear that we take lots of punches.
((THEY LIKE TO KILL, TO ENSLAVE AND ABUSE. IF THAT FILLS YOUR SOUL WITH FEAR, THEY'LL BE HAPPY TO DO SO))
We've been given the order to retreat.
NYC is lost. I can't believe it.
Was it that easy to take us out?
When we had the resolve to fight until last one left?
((THERE WERE SIGNS. THEY WERE COVERED. YOU WEREN'T READY, BUT THE GOVERNMENT KNEW))
The voice, ahh...
It keeps talking with me, telling me weird stuff I didn't know.
I don't know if I can trust it, but the pain is real.
It did save me with a shock from certain death however.
((MOLECULAR CONTROL OPENS THE ROAD FOR MANY POSSIBILITIES. BUT THE PRICE IS HUGE FOR THOSE WHO ARE NOT READY FOR IT))
Medic made the decision.
Kaitleen and civilians have to be carried out in APC.
The rest - including me - will have to shoot our way through.
Not that I'm against that.
When everything was done, APC driver wished us luck.
Again. But after what I saw, double wish is good.
Kaitleen and civilians were boarded on and droven out.
Lock and load, remnants, now it's our time.
Jared, zoo security and medic get out of their cover as their APC, barely repaired, manages to escape the battlefield. The ammo supply is low, so it was decided to use "gotta go fast" approach to not be forced into a losing firefight, but if some help is necessary for their comrades, then they'll try to help
Zoo's chief guard guides us, as NYC is his home.
And he's gonna lead us to the brigde to mainland.
There, we should regroup at the very best.
But our biggest hope is just to get there.
((HOPE IS HUMANITY'S BEST WEAPON, AS IT WAS IN YOUR COUNTLESS PREDECESSORS BEFORE. INSPIRING THEM TO TRY AGAINST UNFAVORABLE ODDS AND SEEK FOR GLORY IN OTHERWISE DISASTROUS LOSE))
Going from vehicle to vehicle, searching for a better road.
Chief's knowledge is good, but it is valid for more peaceful times.
Quiet, and scary - the night on 9th of September.
It certainly is less soundy now that in was when I jumped out of APC.
Less gunshots and less screaming around.
Sky is crimson red, electricity is running out.
The path is lightened by fires all around us.
Marking not only us, but them.
And then we saw the cruel.
Their pets, looking more like bugs.
Purple, glowing, and atrocious.
Beasts have come to feast on us.
But they did that in most repulsing way.
Searching friendlies and combatants.
Running up to them and impaling all.
Only to do a...
Jared and his comrades afterwards see what happens when a Chryssalid implants its embryos into a living creature - and how a new Chryssalid is born. Zoo's security was highly horrified by the display of that
They all deserve extinction.
((THEY DO, BUT THE ETHEREALS NEEDED THEM ALL. NOT FINDING WHAT THEY WANTED, THEY STILL DECIDED TO USE THEM FOR VILE BIDDINGS. AS THEY ARE THE FASTEST AND CRUELEST OF WILD ANIMALS KNOWN. ALMOST REMINDS MYSELF WHEN I WAS WEAKER))
Jared, managing the pain now, tried to change the road, along with repulsed zoo security and medic. However, they've been spotted by a civilian. As the civilian screamed for the armed personnel to help, the aliens took note and blew the civilians up. Getting on top of several destroyed vehicles, they've spotted Jared and his company too, ready to fight
DARN!
((EVADE THEM WITH DOUBLE SPEED. SEARCH FOR SIGHT BREAKERS WHEN POSSIBLE. DON'T STOP - RUNNING IS THE KEY TO YOUR SURVIVAL))
Jared decided to listen to the voice this time. As purely seeing the aliens aiming at them was enough to trigger the escape, the group started moving. Jared tried to suppress the hostiles with the LMG as much as possible, but otherwise they ran most of the time, hoping to find the bridge soon enough
