If having a beard means you're the evil version of someone, and Lewis only has half a beard, does that mean Lewis is a True Neutral version of a 7 year old Lebanese child?

The Yorkshire Farmer, he has no name, not really just he never gave them it. They found him in the desert and decided to take him in, little did they know how he would rise in ranks and how he would he be feared. The name of The Yorkshire Farmer sends fear into the hearts of terrorist, they fear the muffled,” FBI open up!” occupying they door being kicked open, and out comes a man in a chrome suite holding his dreaded flamethrower and pitchfork. His name will be feared even after he dies for they fear that he will come back. The terrorist don’t know what it is under the helmet, not even the new guys, the only ones that know are the ones who have survived that long to see his face, there aren’t many left that have, almost like a curse. The terrorist think he is either alien or machine because a shows no empathy when setting someone ablaze, he almost revels in it, but when everything is ablaze he is even more terrifying. He runs through the fire in his chrome suite when it glisten as he runs toward you with his cold, somewhat ironic, demeanor. The sights regarding The Yorkshire Farmer by the survivors of the ones that have seen him they can only say,” All the fire,” over and over and over. Whenever the terrorist see The Yorkshire Farmer they know that they must fight for their lives to their own utmost capacity. The Yorkshire Farmer was eventually covered up by the FBI when he eventually died or retired, they never released the details, for all the horrendous acts he preformed, but however much they try to cover it up, people remember him even today, they still fear that they will see the chrome, the flamethrower and his bloody pitchfork.

[@Elyseon]

His real name? Gui Montag.

It's always fun when Lewis says something, Ben answers or corrects him, and Lewis proceeds to utterly ignore him.

[@chandrakas]

I was really hoping The Mailman and The Sexbot would get a private car allllll to themselves......

18:37 If you wait enough turns, a zombie will sneak upon you.

[@alejandroreyes9574]

I saw the title and immediately said "Lewis?"

[@geoffbeasley8712]

I said "Hi-Ex?"

[@pizzapielemon]

So it turns out the only way to put out a person on fire is to stun them. So if one of your agents is on fire, whack them with a stun rod.

[@ricklofton2725]

Poor bastard literally ran over a flaming zombie. What a way to go.

[@AsbestosMuffins]

they need to equip everybody with each type of clothing and do some GIJoe theme naming

[@lelandmartin3970]

I think that might rely on donators asking to be named something like "shipwreck" and asking to be given a sailor outfit. p.s or maybe in this case swimwear

[@averageo2343]

I'm totally gonna do that next time I play X-COM 2.

[@lelandmartin3970]

the xcom remake made me so angry when it didn't include any of the customization options by default. you had white guy,black guy. asian and no armor changes. It really made me angry at the time after seeing people streaming with lots of different armor. A few basic outfits would have been nice. I never even bothered naming mine because of it i couldn't tell them apart anyway other then jobs.

[@averageo2343]

Yeah I had that problem when I played the remake too, because I got the Xbox 360 version.

[@firefaux64]

Just came out to smoke and this was up. Love the stream, boys.

[@Elyseon]

Spiders! Punch em!

[@MrWasber]

Lewis and ben make this look so easy god dammend zombies

[@IcepersonYT]

Mr. Wasber I just did a Strange Lifeform investigation where I killed 34 Megascorpions, very painstakingly with 2 decently trained, poorly equipped agents. It was hell. I have not had that much of an issue with zombies yet though.

[@philistineswine]

Lewis moistens my loins.

[@suddencrysis3134]

yeah more stuff

[@TaintedPrinceps]

Martin Jakubko is my spirit animal

[@SpeakShibboleth]

Your oldies playlist makes me feel old

[@blooddragonking4869]

Zombie missions suck balls. Zombies are hard to kill and will just pop up from anywhere. It also does not help that you can shoot a single guy with your entire squad and it does Jack shit. I will do a zombie infestation every now but not that often. If i go someplace and find out it's zombies as the strange lifeforms I just leave. Not worth the ammo, effort, or loss of life. Oh and I find in most missions the flamer sucks, the flare gun is 50/50. Also weirdly shotguns in this modpack are an amazing sniper gun. Even better then rifles, armor piercing functions as a single bullet if you are worried about spread.

[@jakegordon1575]

2:15 What's the music playing in the back?

[@Shaun-ki4tw]

more dead aliens pls thx

[@Baleur]

Look how much they are fucking around discovering little unique character about every single weapon in their reload times, usability, situational advantages and so much, when they DONT have cheated High-Ex to throw in every mission. God i wish they'd play The Final Modpack WITHOUT that Cheat High-Ex setting on. It would be a totally different experience, i honestly dont know if they'd be able to get as far without that. The first week they'd be like "holy shit this is hard as ballz when you're playing legit!" xD

[@statiq1941]

Baleur oh fuck off you freak
