I thought it would be a fun thing to do, I suppose this is probably more of a "meant for videogame section of the forum" thing but since I know you guys and I don't know them and I wanted people to be named after you guys I hope the mods let me keep it here.
For those of you who don't know, X-COM is a turn-based tactical squad shooter where you have to defend the world from aliens using squads of up to 6 soldiers on various missions. Your squadmembers are customisable and nameable, and when they die, it's permanent. Ironman mode prevents you from reloading earlier saves so you can't undo your mistakes. Impossible difficult is notoriously difficult on ironman so I'm probably going to stick to classic difficulty (one above normal, one below impossible) because I don't want you guys to all die because I'm not good enough to reliably get through on I/I, and I figured it would be fun to name some people after you all and then report back on your various accomplishments, which I will try to keep to edits in the OP so as to avoid unneccesarily bumping the thread over and over and clogging the forum up.
So, if you want to join in the fun, let me know! I need a first and last name, and a nickname. Don't put your real names in, and I'll try to make it so the surname or the nickname, not decided which is your handle on the forum, or feel free to let me know what you want to be called, along with any preferences on hair colour, armour colour etc.. Unfortunately you're all going to have to be women because I've modded it so that it doesn't generate male squadmembers but I hope you can overlook that if you are a dude. It doesn't make you gay I promise.
Let me know!
