[Video] TC's Twitch: T&TR @7:30pst - Now a Thing Again!

[The Hound]

So for the people that watched, did I die saving Tirin or did I die because of TC's incompetence while trying to save Tirin? I know the military records will be altered and redacted to hide the chain of command for who ordered the strike that put Tirin and ultimately myself in harms way. Don't you dare delete any emails TC, the FBI will be over soon to recover your server room.

 

[Colonel Thunder]

Wait you can fail that mission?

Hi, I'm TC. I'm kind of a pioneer that way.

Don't be so dramatic you big baby, you're still alive. You just got shot multiple times and almost died. Stop whining and enjoy your free two week vacation in the medbay.

Ah see when I read grievously wounded I assumed you left my body bleeding on a sidewalk to get probed by a Sectoid.

Well yeah, but you limped home okay!

And we gave you a medal, so that's a win in my book!

 

[Colonel Thunder]

Also I'll probably do an impromptu Overwatch stream in like an hour

 

[Colonel Thunder]

Impromptu Overwatch stream in like ten minutes!

Don't know if it'll work or not!

 

[Colonel Thunder]

Good jerb at Tirin for not being garbage on the stream. I can not say the same.

Sadly, stream quality was terrible, even with Overwatch on lowest settings. Probably won't stream it again until some future date when I have a non-potato computer.

Am I still alive in Xcom?

 

[Colonel Thunder]

Am I still alive in Xcom?

Yup. You're not yet a robot though.

Due to the reset, nobody has actually died yet aside from the random scripted deaths in the very first mission.

 

[Jeroth]

Space Pizza Wednesday? So is there a stream today?

 

[Colonel Thunder]

Oh whoops, my bad. There's not. Maybe tomorrow?

 

[Colonel Thunder]

XCOM at 5pm PDT tonight!

That's uh, 2 hours from now!

So I was getting catched up on the vod. Something about overwatch is that it activates after a unit moves two spaces within it's line of sight, or something like that. Basically the first space it moves within a unit's line of sight will not trigger overwatch but the second space will. This applies to both your units and aliens. So if you're one space out of cover and the enemy is on overwatch, you can move one space to cover without triggering it, but anything more will make them shoot at you.

XCOM has a lot of little things like that can make a difference between having a unit survive or die.

Soft launch in fifteen minutes, full launch in thirty

That makes sense, it's like a 5 foot step in D&D.

RIP @Tolvan

He died as he lived.

Young and naive.

And without a hint of cover.

Have fun exploring those alleyways in heaven, buddy

 

[Colonel Thunder]

In other news, Shawn was very excited to undergo gene therapy and become a more advanced soldier!

...

But uh, I wasn't paying much attention and I, uh, accidentally cut his limbs off and turned him into a robot..

But at least he and 13th can be buddies now!

I should have stayed in an alley, where I had cover.

 

[Colonel Thunder]

It's arguable that my negligence as a commander may have led to your death.

Thank you for your service, Tolvan.
