XCOM: Enemy Within - Episode 8 (Unceasing Star, conclusion!)
1436th of April, 2015:
As if they had been listening in on my thoughts, the Aliens didn't even wait a day before launching their next attack... or at least, flying close enough that there's no way we could convincingly tell the council we didn't notice them. Not even Evelynn had time enough to recover, though she made every attempt to convince us otherwise, the medical staff made it quite clear that if she went on the mission she wouldn't be coming back.
That left me with very little choice, and so a squad comprised largely of rookies, and lead by Brandi Bear suited up and left for Operation Unceasing Star. To say I didn't hold much hope for their chances of success would be a gross understatement.
However, to my great surprise the squad has been making good progress through the ruined remains of the top of an apartment building. The aliens they've encountered have fallen with little trouble, and as I record this log our troops have not suffered any casualties, or even any wounds. Perhaps I have been unfair to Brandi Bear, if she can keep up this level of leadership through the rest of the mission I may have to reassess her value as part of future operations.
