I like how odd and marbs affected each other on the specialist xD marbs now chooses medic protocol while odd chooses combat protocol now xD
-------- Advent Research and Development log -----
Today's operation was a failure on two fronts. Not only did X-com succeed on their objective but they also ruined my plans. How are we suppose to gather on the field data if new troops die immediately? The new bio-trooper, bio-commander, and advent sniper died before any useful data could be obtained. I even heard there was a defective wreaker within the ranks. How could this get any worse? (You have a new message) WHAT DO MEAN THE SHIPMENT IS LATE!?
Hope you enjoyed this.
I LOVE Billy's new voice pack!
He made a noise like Animal from the muppets when panicked. Priceless.
Yes. But from BillyTerror we got 'BJ'?
Where is Christopher's mind at?
The Guerilla Training Facility is up and running, and thank god, I haven't found any of those blasted ADVENT burger wrappers in there yet. I know it's just a matter of time, though. Still, it's rather nice to have a place where the worst mess is the metal shavings, bits of plywood, and dust from construction.
The Commander had something interesting to say as I dusted off the memorabilia that were scavenged from the original X-Com base. He said that, in all honesty, there isn't really any way to "fix" what happens in your mind when a resistance fighter is badly injured, or worse, dies. The best thing he could do, he said, was to focus on what you did wrong, and how you can improve in the future. The worst thing you can do for a fallen soldier is let another soldier die for the same stupid reason.
That's something for me to reflect on for a bit. For now, though, I need to go clean up in "The Morgue". The Faceless corpse seems to leak an infinite amount of fluid, and it reeks to high heaven.

Log entry 4
(the sounds of a fusion torch can be heard, with a thumping beat laced in the back.)
We dropped in on Operation Rebel Fog into an underground metro tunnel. CNR-Y stayed close to me, whistling softly. I’ve noticed that she… it does this normally, making more noises than most GREMLINS. I’ll talk about that later though. Raven pressed forward first, spotting a troop in green armor, what we later learned was ADVENT’s experimental bio-weapons division. I slipped forward, opening the train’s doors to give us a better look. THey inched around, but luckily they didn’t see me or CRN-Y. I opened fire on the trooper, counting out ten of my thirty rounds. Everybody opened fire on the captain, but only Raven got a proper hit off. He flanked us, and let loose a burst on BJ. He pulled back and took a shot with his pistol, and Doc and I tore out a wall he was hidden behind. Raven ended him with a grenade. BJ treated his wounds. We pressed forward, spotting the Scrambler and a squad of ADVENT. Raven opened the show with his grenade launcher, putting some serious hurt on them while Doc gave him covering fire. BJ and I shot at a sectoid before it blasted him with psionic energy. I tried to send CRN-Y to help him out, but it didn’t seem to understand the hand signals I was giving it. Doc fired his launcher. I calculated a better angle, and took out the bleeding Sectoid. Billy ended the trooper with his revolver. He’s getting handy with that thing. The ADVENT wrecker that remained tried to get one last shot off before Raven gunned him down. We spotted another group, this one with some kind of ADVENT sniper unit, but Raven didn’t give him a chance to use that rifle. Doc pumped his second shell into the Sectoid and trooper, giving BJ the window he needed. I lined up a shot, and the last trooper went down. We took a picture, with some ridiculous tagline about us being a full-male squad. I earned a promotion as well!
The techs helped me install a stun-plate on CRN-Y, but they left me to integrate it into he- it’s systems. I’m getting a look inside this thing and… it’s fascinating, don’t get me wrong, Raymond Shen was a genius but… there’s something different than the specs would say. Instead of a normal camera analytics board in its compliance slot, it’s instead taken up by a board I am unfamiliar with, as well as a more advanced speaker and mic system. I brought it up with Shen and she said her previous owner made some kind of modifications, but never documented them. Well… i guess that leaves me with a mystery. Can’t wait to look into this thing!
The GTS is finally up in operation, and our first rookie is in as a ranger. A brutal man with the callsign “Rumble”. We’ve also trained in larger team tactics. The Ring also went up, so we can more efficiently perform covert actions.
Resistance radio finally finished up, and the tech team broke through in analysing the Alien materials. They’re sent designs for a ballistic vest of some description that, if I read this right, might just be a good first leg up. Then they started working on Magnetic-drive weapons that could be the start of something great. I’m helping them do calculations when available.
We just received a tip on an ADVENT supply store out in the boonies. I’m being called into the Armory, so I’m sealing up CRN-Y. There you are girl, wake up! Now, let’s test this new stun plate. Hey BJ, come over here!.

Christian Coler Is CRN-Y meant to be read as individual letters, like C-3PO, or as a single word, like WALL-E?
Joshua Darrow it's meant to be pronounced as a word, like ROV-R being Rover. CRN-Y is Canary
Shouldn't it have been then CNR-Y?
I read it as 'Corny' lol
DISCLAIMER: I do not own Firebrand. This is just meant to be a work of fiction for our beloved (more or less) Skyranger pilot.
Firebrand's personal log - April 4th 2035 (Entry #5)
That mission ... That started off weirdly. I mean there were four men. Looked competent enough. And then I heard over the audio feed how the shots went missing like crazy. With the risk of being told off by the Commander and Central, I bugged in over the feed and muttered something like: "Even I can shoot better than that, boys. Step it up!" Yes, Central didn't seem terribly pleased with that. But the squad did pick up the pace after that and started getting their shots in and finished the mission rather rapidly.
I got told off again when I returned but hey ... sometimes the squad needs a little morale boost. Even if it is done in a rather unorthodox way. Nonetheless, I promised Central to just listen to the feed from now on, without interfering. But I also got some nice words from Shen ... It seemed she got a kick out of my interference play. Keep it up, she said. Yeah, well ... maybe. After all, I don't think Central has anybody else that knows how to properly fly the Skyranger. I don't know ... Maybe I shouldn't take chances.
Then it all went wonky in Engineering. Somebody seemed to hack Rover and systems went haywire around the ship. What the hell? Skyranger seemed unaffected by it but ... yeah ... weird stuff that. It will require some investigation.
Anyway ... Mission time. Time to haul another squad away. Oh hey ... seems this one has a female rookie on it. Maybe she can shoot better than the guys.
Firebrand out.
0/10 No mention of pipes or 5-by-5's ;)
hey Andrei, you should join us on the full log page. I always love hearing from you!
Christian, tell me how to do that and I'm your man. :)
EDIT
No matter, found your log and the required info. Will mail ASAP.
Just got into this game. Absolutely love the series. I've been playing along and watching the videos. Can't wait to see where this crazy campaign takes me.
Journal of an ADVENT General, time of writing is April 4th.
I have reviewed the battle in the Vancouver tunnels, panic from the haven raid is still haunting XCOM as they were missing shots left and right on our newly deployed Bio Soldiers. Grenades however, don't miss if you're in the blast zone. Soon enough, X-COM was back to killing our men as they used grenade after grenade on them, even our new sniper unit was ripped apart by cannon fire from X-COM. HQ has told me they are planing to release a unit that was based off of the mental war games of the X-COM commander, from what I understand, they are going to one of our resupply bases just in case the rebels get any funny ideas about raiding the place.
As a personal note to HQ, I would like to request that our Wrecker units have their mental enhancements improved on or we just scrap the units altogether. The one that was fighting had its cover blown up and instead of moving to better cover, it just was standing there, trying to take shots at a rebel who was hiding behind a wall. I am beginning to think that the removal of the commander's chip may have done more damage to our soldiers than we first thought. [Entry ends here]
Love the random noises he makes when things go right.
The only rule I have for bonding is to not bond two of the same class. I also try to bond those with the highest compatibility, not just high cohesion.
just started playing this game today!!! love the custumization !!!
"We all float here"
LMAO
"Wadda we want to call these four?"... Sausagefest?
Roses are red,
I hope you won't fail again,
And we will get more great Logs,
Brilliant tales put to pen.
Did you know that the guy who voices William Blaskowitz in the New Order and the New Colossus actually is the same guy who voices Central (Bradford)! So in a way, Blaskowitz was with you all this time from the beginning c:

Operation: Rebel Fog
Skulking around in tunnels, nothing new to me but never the best for a sniper unless you can funnel your targets into a kill zone. Still, an ops an op and we had a mission to do.
We encountered some special ADVENT task force, they look as if there were ready for radiation or such crap. Most likely patroling tunnels to clean up those freaks call the Lost... The trooper went down easily but their Captain clipped me, just a flesh wound though so a little field medic work on myself and we pressed on.
Found a second group, couple troopers it looked like and a skinny arse Sectoid. Troopers focused on suppressing fire us even though one bomb boy sent a present right at their feet. The Alien bastard tried to get into my mind, resisted him but I can't recall what happened next as my mind went blank and instinct took over to take cover...
One of my teammates took out the Alien and my mind came back to me, seems they have minor connections to your head even if they fail. Well while I would've loved to send that freak to hell at least I got to send his friend packing with a shot to his dome with my trusty pistol. Nothing but skill.
As soon as we finished the second group we found the last hiding behind the objective. one bomb boy flanked their ADVENT sniper while the other flushed out another alien and ADVENT trooper. I took a bit of personal satisfaction I must admit as I aimed right at the Alien freak's head and it's brains splattered the floor, want something done right then do it yourself they say. The tech guy took advantage and rushed up to grab the last kill, area secure and objective secured so it was time to bug out of those tunnels.
Tried to avoid the medical check but the guys wouldn't let me have it my way saying they couldn't let part of Bro-Town risk being down or the count. Bro-Town sounded completely stupid but I guess they're starting to like me around here and they weren't too bad... Still, we have a war to go on and I'm ready for the next mission.
Odd,
I think one of your other mods is overwriting the ABA unit AI, which is why you are seeing weird behavior. Check that none of the additional enemy types have an XComAI.ini in their Config folder, to eliminate the need to do that just make sure ABA is the last mod enabled (aka unsub/resub it after installing any other unit mods).
The mod for info you are thinking about is "Yet Another F1" for WOTC and you can add "Show more buff details" too.
Also, to see bonds just go into "View Soldiers" and click on the bond icons in the list.
I'm a few episodes ahead, but I will unsub/resub to ABA now!
Roger
I'm obviously to late to have any impact in this, but I'm still going to say it.
I personally like the idea the of soldiers bonding with anyone, rather people than only strategically binding them
I really would recommend getting the conventional weapons breakthrough as your next covert action. It will tide you over to Mag weapons and give the cannons and sniper rifles a bit of a boost until you can get to gauss.
THAT'S XCOM BABY!!!
Did I just see voice options of Tommy 'Oscar worthy' Wiseau? Please let that be a thing
chrellen It is and it is amazing!
I DID NOT HIT THAT SECTOID! I DID NAAAAAHT!
I love that feeling when Mr. Odd uploads an Xcom 2 video 😏
When he says perfect world scenario then kills them all that turn 😍😂 wanted him to scream perfect world lmao
Hi ChristopherOdd,
Any reason not to check and choose from these with higher Combat inteligents first (like genius) ?
I like your video
Strategically, you should. But since I roll with custom soldiers all the time I like to just pick the first on the list so as to not have favorites.
That's what the 'increase combat intelligence' covert missions are for increasing AP gain in 'slower' soldiers. lol
Hey Odd! I think you may be encountering a weird bug or something, because it seems that advent soldiers do not "do their thing" destroying the device or even killing the civlians, unless they are triggered by you/revealed by you. At least if you remember the retaliation mission, there as a time when pretty much no civilians were getting killed even though advent was sitting literally on top of them.
I think this is from the Better Advent mod, which changes the enemy AI in a number of ways.
That can happen with over 100 mods. You can check the list and let me know if you think there is anything super wonky. But it's to be expected that some things won't work well. That said, if it happens in multiple instances, I'll try and sort it out.
11:03 TerrorBilly went fully Daithi de Nogla for a moment, there.
Bond any and all templers with rangers. Second why don't you add any extra classes to this?
We already have Rangers, Grenadiers, Snipers, Specialists, Templars, Reapers, Skirmishers and Sparks. I feel like additional classes get lost in the mix a bit. That's not to say I'll never add them...because I will in another campaign I'm sure.
Kebab goes on the supply raid... the usual meat-grinder of Odd's... That sounds promising.
Finally! Been waiting all day for this!
The bios are so great and match the characters so well! And I like you reading them as they come.
Advent Sniper with 65 aim? What exactly makes him a sniper?
Sniper probably has a superior scope
The mods probably prevented advent to attack the device, that was too easy for ironman.
War recount 2
Alright this is war recount número two and really everything went well. Besides the massive amount of missed shots in the beginning of the op which all the soldiers state was them toying with Advent, especially that numbers guy who blew out the cover and said it was all part of a plan listen the guys smart but he ain't that smart. A few fights later in which many grenades were used (pretty sure we're running low now) the mission was a success, two buildings were finished construction, training of soldiers is beginning, and one extra person is going out on the missions now (don't know why we couldn't do that before but hey I'm not in charge). We are all worried though since apparently the next mission will be in that assassins territory she chose for herself and two rookies are going along. Commander Odd seems capable but he's worried I can see it, but the man's got guts we can only hope he has the brains to back it up. Signing out now

26:45 Is that a covert action to recruit a second Templar? Make damn sure you do that one next, two Templars this early would be amazing! The research breakthrough for conventional weapons isn't as good as it sounds; you'd only have the boost for maybe a month before mag weapons finish.
He won't be able to get the 2nd Templar before he has High standing with that faction. That will take a while.
If it's in the mission list he can attempt it...
P.S. the conventional upgrade affects the Resistance troops in retaliation missions also... just an FYI.
My best bond classes are ranger and sharpshooter
Engine is a few years old and we're still getting LOS bugs.... :-/
Remember how in the Retaliation mission, the enemies weren't shooting at civilians until you engaged them? Same thing here with the device. It HAS to be something with one of your mods, right? If this behavior continues, certain mission types will end up being super easy.
Personally, I don't think they have any reason to be destroying the device UNTIL they know Xcom is there later game these missions become totally unwinnable because of Sectopods and Gatekeepers and Andromeda's blasting the things down before you even get within sight of the building it's in let alone the pods.
I mean seriously at least give us an option to Aid protocol the damn thing to help protect it!!
For the bonds, I think you should just get as many bonds as you can now. In the retaliation mission, you had a bond available & did not do it beforehand. That bond might have let you save that last civ you needed to get the win. With what you are up against and the limited tools you have you need every trick/ skill/ boost you can get to get you until your troops have the tools to deal with what they face be it new mob types or our friends the Chosen.
I️ don’t know why I’m so late,but nice vid odd!
Hey Chris when the last of part 2 game comes out can you please play it when you have time...? I really love watching you do game plays since you try to explore everywhere thoroughly❤️❤️😩😩 can't wait for TLOU part 2😩😩😩😆😆
Have u made a character pool in this series for us to use ?
Says ironman in title? Didn't you NOT go ironman because of the mods unpredictability? I seem to remember that when you set the game up.
ye, but he wont reload saves- that is, waht ironman means
Dory "Ironman" means that you play a game without reloading. thats the definition. paradox has the achivments bound to ironman to avoid people, who reload stuff to get multiple achivments at once
Technically it means 'hardcore mode' no savescumming all losses and mistakes are permanent. But with Mods installed the actual Ironman setting can get bugged and destroy the entire game.
Why don't you recruit rahjin darkwood and train her as a ranger
How did you get that Russian/Polish language pack to work? Did you have to alter it at all? It won't show up on mine
I absolutely hate “protect the device” missions. You really need to rush in and engage quickly because it doesn’t take long for them to start tearing up that device…
8:17 HOW CAN T WE SEE HIM - no bug ! The reason is nased in the formulas of the TECHNICAL DRAWINGS - the math here is correct so in this constelation the Advent-Captain can´t be seen
I was yelling at the screen about that breakthrough until I realized it was about the base facility and not the actual tower upgrades. I hate how all those things are named almost the same..
Would it be possible to get some 1440p res?
Guys night out XCOM style
"I know this name" I wonder where from XD
Use 'Metal over Flesh' mod or SPARKs are pretty useless
Canuck024 He have that mod
SPARKs are already useful. Most Psionic units are nearly helpless against them, including the Chosen who have few options for combating robotic units. It also has shredder, which makes it easier for other units to kill robotic units. And if you give them a scope they rarely miss targets outside of high-cover, which allows them to wipe out an entire Lost swarm with one turn and a large magazine.
And they never get tired, allowing you to anchor your squad on a constant unit for every mission. Great for when you need to send high ranked soldiers on required covert ops.
well then earliest I've ever been.
do you upload the dank tank series?
this ain't no upside down
Off topic: ... what is going on with HZD? Another video got deleted... will it be stream only from now on?
those are only 'anouncement' vids telling you it's gonna be streamed soon. just an FYI.
If you need to double back their skills, you need to have a lot of the soldier's AP. These AP will came with that soldier IQ level, then the higher IQ lever, the more APs for him...
10:01 should have bombed them again. You would kill one and damage the other one
Odd use stepan in missons if you dontdo it i wil watch your videos for 5time and like your every vibeo its only a warning gege!
Parker that GDI lackey what you need is some Black Hand units they will end this war in the name of the Messiah.
I think all the soldiers should have access to a 'commando' skill that gives them a 1 pt melee attack with a combat knife...
Where is the zombie game odd!!
"They are Billions" is mostly streamed on twitch the last few days. But I think Mr. Odd is trying to reserve time with the "Hotel" colony for RUclips.
I want falstro back!
Pls?
Mr odd. Could you please name the spark Praetor Protocol. I made specter, and would love it if you would indulge me in this request
Please play Little Nightmares DLC
You should put wotc season 2 in the name. OCD
how did you get to take 5 people on the next mission when you didn't get the upgrade in the GTS? and you don't even have a captain yet? :O
The hell are you talking about? Odd bought the GTS squad size upgrade in this very video.
I totally missed it. Now that I rewatched it I saw he got it.
Stranger Things
Try upgrading your weapons
The chosen talk too much.
all the standard NPCs jabber WAY too much of the same BS chatter, only the 'new lines' should show up each time. if no new lines... should be no comments.
Upside down? Wtf is This stranger things
Hey anybody played Doki Doki Literature Club? I just played it last night and think Christopher should try a playthrough of it
Bromance??
Pls no shippering…
Is it me or its kinda boring when none of his soldiers die?
