Reminder that snek and filthy ayys should be offered in sacrifice to Commander and His most Holy Prophet.

You're okay. Wanna go alien murdering sometime?

One man's ded is another man's comfy

Advent sux!

What's the downside to killing a VIP instead of extracting them?

You miss out on like a 100 intel.

I think of all the obnoxious shit Long War changed, allowing/making seekers just fly up one space away and blast you repeatedly instead of just grabbing is by far the worst.

xth for fuck vipers

no intel reward

there isnt one other than for the blood lust plus murder com is fun

>emp grenade
:^)

Acid and rupture were the saviors of that day

new player here. whats the meta team comp for a first playthrough?

>EU/EW
1 heavy, 1 sniper, 2assaults and 2 supports
>long dong
one of each

S N E K

6 Snipers

6 grenadiers, into 6 psi-ops.

3 heavies, 1 snipers, 1 assault, 1 support.
>Using more than 1 assault in either game

6 medic specialists

...

>not using 6 assaults
Do you hate fun?

>Everyone immune to poison
>Everyone able to heal everyone to full all the time
>Infinite smoke grenades with more defense
>Infinite overwatch reaction shots any time the enemy tries to do anything
This meme build seems like it could actually work once they reach high enough rank.

but you have no DPS, AOE or problem solvers.

combined with shitty aim progression

What should I aim for in terms of armor for long war? I'm still on tacshit since i can squeeze out 1 more hp than the aliens can deal currently. I want to keep obsolescence to a minimum but I doubt tac vests => titan is going to work very well.

I go tac armor > phalanx (only for scout/assault) > carapace for all > titan for frontliners and aegis for mid/back

and of course seraph (light jetpack armor) for the sniper

>DPS
>Dee-pee-ess
>Damage Per Second
What memery is this.

well it's easier to type than infantry or mec

REMOVE

do you prefer Dee Pee Tee

You know, if you supposedly hate snek so much you should work on getting some more reaction shots here. I think you're just being coy!

Snek did nothing wrong.

Yes, this pleases my autism.

Snek is comfy
Comfy!

Why do you oppose a perfect snek waifu laifu, /xcg/?

miia a best

>Wanting a monstergirl
>Not wanting an actual snek waifu

That is not a perfect snek waifu you fucking degenerate.
BEHEAD MONSTERGIRLS

I'm not a furry.

>extract vip mission
>evacuate everyone but one guy
>he's left alone against 4 enemies, expect him to die that turn
>he's knocked unconscious by the enemy lancer, mission ends
Will he show up in a rescue mission later?

Why is this COLDBLOODED CUMDUMP not sitting next to the FIREPLACE getting her CLOACA pumped full of HUMAN SEMEN?

>monstergirls
>furry
They're both different kinds of cancer, dude.

No Commander, I'm sorry. He's busy making many sneklets now.

He's getting FEMRAPED

The Evolve general is filled with the same kind of brony-tier faggots wanting to fuck the Wraith monster too. Kill yourselves

>Not just removing snek like everyone else
Get a load of this guy

Are their monsters cute?

But user I go to /trash/ and /out/ constantly!
Besides, almost general wants to fuck the monsters in their games.

user, nearly every single general on Veeky Forums has multiple waifus and husbandos. It's not like the majority of the threads are dominated by it. Even when there's heavy posting of it going on short term it takes up less than 10% of the total thread the overwhelming majority of the time, and never goes past 20%.

Go to yourself, as you're clearly out of the loop on the board as a whole.

Any point to the LW SMG pack?

Going fast.

If you like SMGs, and want to add them to your game. Just like pretty much any other cosmetic.

I dont understand how the fuck KS general exists still

Some class mods require them.

Kill yourself, furry sympathizer

Only in the name of the Commander.

I have it installed and I never use them. Same with the leader pack. It's just paying more resources in-game for something extremely niche that probably only one of your soldiers will use.

Youre blinded by your own autism. Holy. Fuck.

leader is kind of neat but it should be more passive

Not even remotely. There aren't that many threads on the board which are predominately waifu/husbando posting. /xcg/ isn't one of them, and to claim otherwise is ridiculous.

We have 750 posts before bump limit. Less than 75 on average are snek or remove snek related. If you include general waifu/husbando (EXALT, EXALT-chan, Patsy, Coydex, etc.) we still rarely go over 150 total posts between all of them.

You're over-exaggerating a problem because you're mad about seeing something you don't like. Get over yourself.

I WAN
TO FUG
DA SNEK

>150 replies dedicated to waifuposting and wanting to fuck monsters and animals is completely fine because the rest of the board also indulges the same cancerous behaviour
>he still hasn't hung himself yet

drawfags whennnnnnnnnnnn

high-quality rare sneks whennnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn

rare Patsys wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeennnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn

rare Shielas wheeeeeeeeeeennnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn

>Getting this upset that people find ways to bump threads for slow generals for old games

>arguing pointless shit
it's like anime yes/no in trump gen

>arguing pointless shit
I agree with this person right here.

For going maximum speed.

It's obviously no_

what is this dragonpunk shit?

they're adding fantasy shit?

Supposed to be some sort of full conversion with fantasy stuff, so yeah. Maybe I'll go look if they ever accomplished anything.

>google it
>Dragonpunk
>by Dragonware
>yet another breed of scalieshits in my xcom
Fuck is going on?

they just released part of it matey
>upcoming coop beta - youtube.com/watch?v=r1vuLDqcI98

and the goblin bazaar mod

its shadowrun themed.

>Fuck is going on?
Apparently not paying attention. This is OLD news.

>They actually did part of it
Ok, color me impressed.

>Ideaguys put together a website
>Nothing to really show for it
It's nothing, and won't be anything.

If you hate Ruler armor but don't want to pass up on the free smackdown they deliver:

Why would you hate art?

Holy fuck if I knew Perfect Information provided info like this I would have installed it ages ago

Who said I hate it? Some people do, more customization is always nice, and now you can use ruler armor with themed runs.

Nice. The leader armour really breaks my tacticool uniform autism

Didn't mean you in particular, silly.

>it's just 5 minutes of showing retextured armor
excuse me what the fuck

Really? You didn't notice the part where they established a connection and the changes made on one account from a different game also affected the other?

>co-op XCOM 2

On the one hand it sounds amazing, but on the other hand I don't think I could handle playing this with one of my friends and having tactical autism get the better of me and having cringe/get mad at the bad decisions they'd inevitably make on the battlefield.

>he's not friends with a tactical genius

>Cheating

>not playing with another genius on hre
Letting a friend fully control half of your squad would be pretty fun.

>Commander 1 is a no-nonsense tacti/k/ool genius
>Commander 2 sends his dude out in leathers, knight helmets, and heavy metal face paints
I smell a sitcom brewing!

The Odd Commanders

>become attached to your best Ranger
>friend thinks he's hot shit because he has Phantom enabled after the rest of the squad gets spotted
>pushes too far ahead into 3 pods and proceeds to get spotted and raped
>lol dude it's just a game

>possible co op campaign of beagle and jamball
just think on the banter

>Domestic violence
Haha no thanks.

non-tile snapping grenades/psi

cheat or not?
