@Gutshot

I'd love to discuss fusions - with anyone, at that! Not sure how Topaz will react to fusions and whatnot, I think I'll have to see how I end up writing her.

I present to the board, my rebellion gem for approval [+]

its a joke by the way. Just ta be clear.

Burn it!! Kill it with fire!! Shatter it and burn the piece!! Throw the puffed gem into lava!

@Archmage MC
Speaking of which, are you the one adding us into the campaign?
How are we doing?
Also, if you've played XCOM Enemy Unknown/Within, can you compare it? It looks like it's a little harder, but the classes seem much better (creativity-wise) and I like the stealthy element and the cool dynamic kills/killcams.

For Vanilla, both are really easy. XCOM 2 takes a bit to get used to though but Heavies with their Grenade launchers are amazing.

For Long War...

Its being re balanced here in a bit so wait for the 1.1 patch.

LW from XCOM 1 is easier imo, since the strategy there is Overwatch spam. Here you gotta do the stealthy stuff which can go bad very quickly and there are many many more units in XCOM 2 LW as well as many more missions and far less resources. But no air game so no crapshoot there.

I don't think XCOM 2's LW legendary difficulty is even possible without massive savescumming due to how some of these enemies work there. ADVENT Grenaders and Rocketeers with 24 hp officers all with 80 aim is nasty, thats not even considering the Vipers, Vipers with Squadsight and 90 aim, Mutons with base 10 damage, Muton Centurians with even more damage, and thats just midgame. Lategame you got the ADVENT Heavy MECs, Sectopods (They're puppies compared to LW1 at least), Gatekeepers, and other fun stuff.

At least I'm past finding a Codex. Those things are annoying AF.

@Peridot Feel free to PM me for le fusion talks if you wanna.

Ooooo now I wish I can start a friendship between my two characters!! Oooo!! That would be so cool.

EDIT: Is it weird that I'm making a random Reblion gem in my character forum and just slowly adding onto it? Like I haven't even touched the Backstory but I do have the main parts and like one other and one power so far

Well I just had a fun LW mission.

So It was Destroy the Alien Relay. There were 18 enemies on the map, mostly advanced mutons, powerful Advent, and MECs. So what I did was bring the heavy weapons class, the technician, but outfitted them for stealth. Since Fire often times destroys the relay with how it destroys the environment, I snuck them to the relay, called EVAC, then set the relay on fire and managed to get out of there with 3 mutons on my butt, being suppressed by a MEC, and I dunno how many advent/Mutons around the building waiting to get a piece.

These are all enemies with 10+ hp, hit for 10+, and have 75 aim mind you. And my soldier had 4 health. Stealth at its finest! though it is weird stealthing with a flamethrower...

Just updated my drivers for the first time in like 2 years. Wonder what's better now.

@HaltingBlooperProbably a good deal of stuff. optimization and streamlining for games ans programs and the like. I still need to talk to someone about fixing my itunes...

May I reserve a rebilion gem? I haven't finished the CS still (Powers, Background, and Other) but I would like to reserve a place just in case if a slot opens.

@The1Rolling1Boy I believe all the Rebellion slots are full...

@EnterTheHero I know. That's why I'm asking to reserve a slot for when and if one opens. If not that's okay.

@The1Rolling1Boy

Yes, I can put one on reserve so it cannot be used and so Kronshi doesn't make it a Fusion by accident. What is the Gem?

I'm not sure more spots will open but rather be safe than sorry.

@The1Rolling1Boy Oh. Sorry, I didn't read that. Carry on, then~

@Akayaofthemoon The gem is a Larimar. I have a partial CS finished though. Still trying to work out a few key details. ':D He is bubbled themed... I orginally wanted Marnie to be bubbled themed but it didn't fit with what her gem looks like so I ended up using my favorite type of gemstone and made it bubble themed because it looks like foam/bubbles in a way
@EnterTheHero It's okay. Common mistake :)

So uh... me and my girlfriend just broke up. Pretty torn up about it, don't know if I'll be able to write anytime soon. @Akayaofthemoon could you tell Jones that I'm going to have to back out of The Marauders? I'm going to go eat a bunch of comfort food and die for a couple hours.

Awww! There there I understand how you feel. Honestly I'm still heart broken from mine... I can't even go to school without wanting to cry my eyes out... Our break of was two weeks ago though... My heart hurts so much... I can relate to your pain is what I'm trying to get at

I'm really sorry that happened, @Pathfinder. I wish you the best of luck in moving on.

@The1Rolling1Boy

It was for the best, she just wasn't happy with "Us" anymore and wanted to go back to before. She's one of my best friends and while it definitely hurts, I can get over it. Her happiness means more to me than... Us.

@Pathfinder
I hope you feel better though I don't know how easily that'll come. Hang in there buddy.
