A new supplier has shown up, based out of Massachusetts. He's offering to send a shipment of tactical combat knives our way to help the troops handle the FUCKED UP tangos that like to get up close. He's even like offered to deck them out with tactical decoration dude, like he's putting "SEMPER FIDELIS" along all the blades :D

8089c75c90.png

Meanwhile, I've figured out what happened back in the alien base. The soldiers hadn't gotten the training they'd needed to handle the new tech right.

6226f8a995.png

I designate all the guys who've gone into training with the #PsiClass tag--the nerds have made it quite clear that they can't leave the base until the training's up next month, or they risk making something FUBAR. Among the trainees is ChuckSlaughter of earlier UFO fame...

2b44a656ce.png

And Mustafa, the #LiberalCrimeSquad leader from America. Basically we got some chill guys going in gamers, press 1 for that.

4233961c99.jpg

Basically I was too hasty, gamers. It looks like we'll be holed up protecting our lands for another month before we try finishing this next part of the fight. I can only hope the suits are happy enough about our progress so far that this lull won't make any of them start to disrespect are troops.
 
Many Bothan spies died to bring us this heinous video footage of the psionic "training"

Holed up or not we're still shooting down tangos left and right. Another small one's gone down now--hopefully we'll be able to get some more tango fuel from it. The TYCENADO needs tango tech to fly, and it's starting to get low. Mythos heads a team and the squad gets to it.

COMBAT REPORT:
78165bf0ad.jpg

Strewth and Surtur rush off and take cover, then a tactical storm hits the surrounding buildings. FUCK yeah dude, blaster bombs dabes! Heh, like, the playing field's pretty equal now dude.

85ed9bd15f.png

The tactical fusion tank gets first eyes-on. What fucker will we be shooting today...

1547d941ef.png

Green faggots huh? Let's do it dude, semper fi and shit.

52755289d1.png

Surtur turns the corner of a nearby store to flank the--FUCK!

2e0b05cfb4.jpg

Strewth starts up his time-tested parkour skills. If he can't take this tango down this turn Surtur is fucked dude!

09e920b8e8.png

Tahaaaaaaw yeah!

02beb9cdfb.jpg

That save has put him in the line of fire for the other tango though. Hunger and the rest of the team unload fast but there's no time...dude this is FUCKED UP, this is not where Strewth dies dude, this is FUCKED UP...

03f5e940fd.jpg

Dude, like this is some straight martyr shit, the tank rolls in front of Strewth to give him cover! Basically he like pats the hull and he's just like "Tahaaaa, nice dude"

8d4d11cc32.png

Shit, the fire's coming on hard. Three more tangos were spotted by are soldiers on the last enemy turn.

1b6d1dd734.jpg

Heh, like, let's make that a few less.

3c015e3aaa.jpg

The tank's tactical rockets and a couple tactical sniper shots from Strewth ends the mission with no casualties. And there were haters saying I wasn't trying to keep soldiers safe :left:

d7cda044f2.jpg

And for great blaster bomb control, Cuddlebug's jumped to Sergeant. Cuddlebug and Randall's explosive skills have been like really important in this mission, dudes; I expect great things from them.

f24c7c04e3.jpg

A few medals go around to the mission soldiers. One of note's the Military Cross to Mythos--this marks her fourth time earning the award.

c07b1c0972.png

The corg's maintained her title as most sent-in soldier since the start of the war. She's now racked up 16 missions and 6 confirmed kills, all of which have been with trusty earth weapons. She's been around the world now, seen good and bad ops, and is still improving as a tactical warrior of the battlefield. Basically she's one tactical motherfucker gamers, press one for that.

e0520ba5c7.jpg

Another day over, some more tangos down and some more experience under our belts dudes. Time to continue the grind, basically; the nerds are gonna keep training the #PsiSquad for their first ops, and #StrykerSquad's gonna start getting into the mission rotation more in the meantime. The tactical gods of the battlefield are starting to get behind compared to the corg dude, and that's gotta change if they all want to be around to help finish the fight.

The TYCENADO's officially out of fuel, gamers. It's a good excuse to start building a secondary air base, though. The name for it was an easy choice...RIP (:_(

d11237f9e0.png

Before we can get some more hangars up and working we'll have to make do with what we have. The gear's unloaded from the TYCENADO...

3019df1a0b.png

And a much smaller loadout's put onto WINGMAN-1. We'll be counting on it for dropping UFOs and for transporting squads too, now. The team sizes will be cut to less than half of our original capacity of 14 until we get some more tango-fuel.

3ff4047641.png

Hopefully we'll get our hands on some soon--we have a new draft wave coming in a few days and I want to be able to get as many of them on op rotations as we can. If we're gonna finish the fight at the end of this month we'll need every man as tactical as possible, dude, and that's basically the #Facts.
 
NOVEMBER 11, 1999
6e3ab0c8a6.jpg

WINGMAN-1 has shot down a tango ship in the desert. Strewth and Kagayaki are taking four rookies to check things out but they'll have to be careful; basically this is like, #Throwback gamers, small squads sticking close and like being tactical and shit. Let's get back to our like roots, okay!

COMBAT REPORT:
4bd4552d2a.png

First two guys out and one gets sniped from the bluffside. Unrealistic, dude.

9dee94fe01.png

That's Our Lolcow drops off looking for some vengeance, basically. He moves north and finds--what the fuck?! Dude that's a muslim! That's a straight-up space muslim!! :o

addd1c30dd.png

Hroovitnisson takes more shots while TOLC rushes forward with a stun rod. He misses every shot :c Basically like #Roleplay, he's just like "This gun's in violation of the accuracy codes. Obviously it's not my own fault."

80cacad6a1.png

But Kagayaki and Strewth are basicaly like "SHUT UP ROOKIE" and are like giving TOLC cover fire. We gotta capture this fucker--a space muslim captive would be invaluble in taking out ISIS and the tangos both dude!

fefe715ed5.png

TOLC almost parkours up to it but Hroov makes a shot that hits :c

d43b548ede.png

Strewth pushes up with the squad in like a tactical firing line basically, taking out another space-izlamb on the way. The UFO's in sight now--we'll have to just hope there's another space muslim to capture in there and take out the ones surrounding it.

e8ee2043fe.png

Uff, Hroov got hit :c Basically he's like "UNGH....Wow....if I were you I'd...I'd get me a....m-medic.....if I...were...."
And then he's gone dude.

88e2901388.png

Strewth snipes the muslim that took Hroov down no problem. Heh, like, basically the dead-eye shot's back by now, basically. Like, #Roleplay dude, he like puts on the sniper glasses Glaive left behind like "Heh...looks like we still got it dude, essentially."

54a2569d23.png

Another one's dropped easily. Damn man, Strewth's going HAM today!

350afec135.png

Fuck, there's a space muslim on the roof? He's got eyes on us dude, and it looks like he can use space HAARP rays too. Looks like we won't be taking prisoners this time around after all, dudes.

244fead66a.png

TOLC takes out one but there's still another one up there. The squad braces for the return fire!

6b039b465c.png

Dude this is FUCKED UP, these guys really ARE straight-up space muslims! The surviving tango uses his HAARP rays to terrorize Quanta!

ab36b34e89.png

TOLC snipes the other fucker too but the op hasn't ended. We may have a chance at catching one of these interdimensional ragheads still.

f3eaa06e1e.png

With the terrorist out of the picture Quanta gets a hold of himself and equips a stun rod. It's all up to him and TOLC now--

93b5e6ffe3.png

Or just TOLC, the guy panicked again :c

f790e44908.png

TOLC enters and gets eyes on!

0b5cc3e89d.png

He parkours a shot and moves in dude, FINISH THE FIGIIIIIIIIGHT!!!!!111!!
 
COMBAT REPORT CONCLUSION:
98aa97322c.png

Noooooo! :surprised:

2b1e9049f0.png

Quanta gets a hold of himself and picks up his stun rod again dude. He can't run away again man, real Muhreens don't cry, they finish the fight for the guys who can't, and hearing TOLC die Quanta finally understands this.

47fde60dfd.png

He goes in to finish the fight dude, he's got this!

5ade176c61.png

FUCK! :cry:

08befc5b07.png

Strewth has had enough of this shit gamers, no FUCKING prisoners dude. He parkours up to the entrance...

6efbfc504f.png

A solid hit from the tango splashes off his armor and he gives some tactical fire of his own.

6eba078db0.png

He missed :surprised:
Basically like #Roleplay dude, he like keys his mic to Kagayaki and he's like "Hey dude....bro this is FUCKED UP but I'm FUBAR dude..."
Kagayaki's like "That's BULLSHIT DUDE, parkour his shots man, PARKOUR IT MAN!!"
And Strewth like closes his eyes dude, he's like one with the bullet dude, and he's like "LIIIIIIIVE BY THE BULLEEEEEEET......."

c45c2038ca.png

"DIIIIIIEEEEEE BY THE BULLEEEET--AAGHAHHHHGHHHHHHHHHHH"
And Kagayaki's all like "nooooo" basically--
DUDE WAIT

e0a59bfd79.png

HOLY SHIT HE'S OKAY! He parkours through the pain!!

2914d28286.png

HE FINISHES THE FIIIIIIGHT!!!111!!
1f595e9fde.png

WINGMAN-1 makes it back to base, but only two soldiers out of six step out the cargo doors. Strewth and Kagayaki look at each other like all grim and tactical and shit as the nerds take the new toys to research. The mission was a win but the losses for it were FUCKED UP. Hopefully the next mission will go smoother for whoever goes along with #StrykerSquad next time man, the point of sending rookies along with them was for them to come back alive and experienced (:_(

332b324d59.jpg

The two #StrykerSquad veterans earn a few more medals for their hard work today. Strewth has done especially well today, earning the Merit Star for his tactical taking out of the tangos and the Crimson Heart for his near-death experience in the UFO.

90152cd2a1.jpg

The sun sets on the base once again dudes, and as always it's a sight with mixed feels for #StrykerSquad. Another day that they've survived okay, but also like another day some others didn't.
 
I accidentally opened up Tavern's big binder of combat strategies, and there was only one page in there.

NOVEMBER 13, 1999
c7a0b32554.jpg

Another ship's down in the desert. Mythos is in with five rookies...hopefully a few more will make it back today.

COMBAT REPORT:
da449be8cd.png

The rookies drop off and set up a perimeter. Basic training dudes, like crawl before you walk and shit. This is easy stuff, they can handle it...

22a37205a5.png

Oh boy, we're dealing with green faggots. The rookies didn't get a very lucky draw for their first mission.

6f99b952a5.png

Cluelessly takes it in stride bro, like tango down and shit. Good start, good start.

f0869edee9.png

Introman spots a tango and the corg drops off to open fire. It seems like she's been thinking about the old days a lot today--she misses every shot :c

25901e83ba.png

The faggot sprays and prays dude, firing at all are troops. Phil Ken Sebben takes one right in the chest.

66c1ee77c0.png

The bastard's hanging on though! :o Basically he's like "Heh...the....the vets have taken worse dude..."

09ffa58483.png

He takes down the tango that hit him!

fc93424570.png

Sebben grazes the other visible tango too, and Introman finishes the job for him. FUCK yeah dude, this is going great!

4e86b62a78.png

Basically the #SquadScout, Introman moves up and finds another tango. Heh, like triple tap dude, you know how we do--

649893b767.png

Shit, this one's got some strength. It shakes off all three of Intro's shots and returns a couple wild bursts of his own.

c553e3fbd3.png

The team's blaster bomb takes the fucker out nicely.

2f34d0af9d.png

Mythos orders the team to move in but Sebben's hanging back some. Like #Roleplay dudes, he like coughs up some blood and shit with like one of those tactical grins on his face. Basically he's like "Heh, like, go on without me dudes...I'll just rest for a sec, that shot hurt some."

7d807d74db.png

Mythos tells the team to let him rest (:_(
 
COMBAT REPORT CONCLUSION:
cbb1b15ef2.png

Sanic bursts in first and drops to a knee. Basically he like tactically calls out coordinates and shit...

b2a389b6dc.png

And Introman finishes it off--

17018921f1.png

Just to be gunned down next turn :surprised:

85e91f8934.png

Saney's down moments later :surprised: :surprised:

83c3830c4b.png

Cluelessly goes off dude, he's like "NOOOOOO" and parkours at the faggot! He takes a shot straight through his center but he's still going dude!

b93596751a.png

HE FINISHES THE FIIIIIIIII--

d8150b3218.png

Oh no.
Cluelessly like calls to the blaster launcher guy and he's like "Dude....dude you there..."
And blaster launcher's like "Yeah"
The Muhreen knows he's dead next turn, dude. He like closes his eyes and shit, man, and he's just like ".....Take the shot."

412de312b2.png

It's just Mythos and NobleGreyHorse now. GreyHorse has eyes on one more tango, hopefully the last one...this next turn may be the end of the fight gamers.

214eb7878c.png

Mythos picks up a heavy plasma from one of the downed tangos and tosses it to GreyHorse. Basically they have like a tactical eye lock dudes, like they both know how FUBAR this is and that they gotta fix things.

8fc5e1c3ef.png

The next events happen fudcking fast dude. A tango pops out and Mythos hits it with a stun rod a few times before tactically ducking around a corner. GreyHorse trades shots with it but nothing hits. FUCK dude that was intense!

a934255ee8.png

GreyHorse is down!! FUCK!!

251a947d72.png

Oh my god oh my god oh my god dude....Mythos like stares in the face of her demise like all grim and shit. She's seen so much fucking death dude, like her PTSD must be the toughest out of every soldier in are armed forces. But dying here won't give her peace...she will die away from #StrykerSquad, away from the hardcore tactical motherfuckers that she's survived with for so long. That's fucking depressing gamers, and that's and/or what I believe.

a307bf878e.png

The corg takes out the tactical shotgun that she's carried for so many months now. She's ready to finish the fight.

Press one for this tactical motherfucker gamers. Press one for this god of the battlefield's sacrifice on foreign sands gamers, don't FUCKING forget her sacrifice! PRESS ONE GAMERS!!

PREEEEEEESSSSS.......

81935a101d.png

WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAN!!!!!!!!!!!


GOD FUCKING DAMMIT! This is FUCKED UP! THIS IS SO FUCKING FUCKED UP!!! FUCK this dude, FUCK THIS!!

32bfdc3e01.jpg

This is NOT what was supposed to fucking happen!! This is FUCKED UP dude, THIS IS FUCKED UP!! Oh fuck dude, oh FUCK DUDE, she wasn't supposed to die, she was supposed to go all the way man, SHE WAS SUPPOSED TO GET TO SPACE! God FUCKING dammit!!!

ecebc6150c.png

You know who it is, #Roleplay dude, StrykerSquad like runs to the memorial shit and they're in tears dude, they're crying the TRUE TEARS OF MUHREENS dude, because they know okay, they KNOW that Mythos was supposed to be immortal. This is so FUCKED UP dude, so FUCKED UP....
So close to finishing the fight and shit can still come crashing down dude, people still die every day, even the best of them can die like scrubs...
Basically I gotta wonder dude, like what the fuck are we fighting for? (:_(
 
NOVEMBER 14, 1999
ef648290d1.png

With the extra hangar space from the loss of WINGMAN-1, the engineers have put SKYRAIDER-91 back together and gotten her flight-ready. FUCK using interceptors as landing craft dude, that's FUBAR as FUCK. Basically it's business as usual now, until the month's over.

91aba8ddaf.png

But...shit feels more empty now, gamers. Nobody's moving as tactically as usual, and everyone's glancing at the memorial more often...

9aff548f7a.png

The nerds have finished interrogating the space muslim from Kagayaki and Strewth's mission. These fuckers are definitely at the top of the tactical command chain for the tangos, gamers. If we could nab one of their bosses we'd definitely have the intel necessary to end this fight for real.

Nothing much to it but to wait now gamers...good things come and all that shit...

NOVEMBER 26, 1999
d42dc69661.png

Ah fuck, a terror attack. I've just about had it with the tangos' constant fucking MUSLIMING dude, I'm gonna FUCKING go off! FUCK IT dude, we're staying home today!

Let's just wait for funding and training dude, that's the way--

28404d8cf9.png

DUDE ARE YOU FUCKING SERIOUS

THOSE MOTHERFUCKERS RAGEQUITTED THE FUCKING ALLIANCE LIKE SPEDS

6b00ede7a0.jpg

Well FUCK THEM dude, FUCK THEM! The fucking training's done okay, and funding or not we're gonna FUCK UP THOSE BASES okay, for our honor okay, for our FREEDOM okay, FOR MYTHOS OKAY :c :c :c :c :c
