X-COM: UFO Defense - Episode 8

[@neoteraflare]

This was a really unlucky defense. From all the aliens you got the sectoids that can use psy.

@@neoteraflare Eh, it went well enough anyway. Lots of rookies died, and they're replaceable, but the people who were left got promotions.

@@steamrangercomputing Good to see you could stay calm and push through. When I played the game first time (25 years ago...), when cases like these happened I got tilted and quit the game or save scummed through it.

@@neoteraflare Well I think the right attitude is just remembering that everything's pretty easily replaceable, except the loot from the end of the mission. Attacking a UFO, all but your highest ranking guys can be replaced cheaply and decently quickly; The weapons they carry can easily be bought/manufactured/found (Except for the blaster launchers); What is more expensive and difficult to get is Elerium, Alloys, power sources/navigation, etc.
