So, as discussed on IOTchat, I decided to launch an XCOM game with some house rules (inspired by Symph's attempt at this in NES a while back).

The game will run... well, whenever I get around to playing it.
Spoiler Settings :
We're playing Enemy Within on Normal Ironman (tried Classic, but given I've only played through once, I kept losing entire squads). Operations Progeny and Slingshot are enabled, the tutorials are not.

Second Wave options turned on:
Not Created Equally
Hidden Potential
The Greater Good
Marathon
Training Roulette


Now, as for the house rules - every XCOM soldier will be an IOTer. No non-IOT soldiers will be used. Any IOTer that dies cannot come back.

Basically, XCOM is limited to the size of IOT.

To join the army, sign on. In the spoiler below is the list of current soldiers; if you have preference, they're first come first serve, otherwise, I'll pick randomly. Non-claimed soldiers will not be used.
Spoiler :
Cpl. Kong Wu (Heavy, China) CLAIMED BY MARTINLUTHER
Cpl. Sarah Wolf (Support, Germany) CLAIMED BY SAM Deceased
Sq. Guadalupe Sanchez (Sniper, Mexico) CLAIMED BY OMEGA
Ahmed Haddad (Egypt)
Liora Cohen (Israel) CLAIMED BY TOLNI
Olufemi Agooda (South Africa) CLAIMED BY ARROW Deceased
William Williams (Australia) CLAIMED BY NC
Nasreem Mufaddal (Egypt)
Isoke Ondede (South Africa) CLAIMED BY EVERBLACK Deceased
Patrick Anderson (Australia) CLAIMED BY e350tb
Lucas Schulz (Germany) CLAIMED BY EQ
Conor O'Sullivan (Ireland) CLAIMED BY NUKE Deceased
Fatima Khoury (Egypt)
Jack Taylor (Australia) CLAIMED BY THOMAS


Once/if all of these are filled, I'll start hiring more and take names from the wait list. Assuming enough interest is shown, I'll post some screenshots and make this progressively more interactive.
 
I'll take the boringly named spot of William Williams.
 
I am actually playing XCOM. You're signing up for a soldier to get your name. I will only be using soldiers named after IOTers.
 
My name's Conor the Con Man yo
 
Cpl. Sarah Wolf (Support, Germany)


Guten Tag.
 
Arrow was killed attempting to secure a downed UFO in Brazil.
Everblack, Sam, and Nuke all perished during the first assault on Kadun. As a result of their failure, Nigeria has withdrawn from the council.

Everyone else is currently injured. I forgot to keep track of promotions before I quit.
 
Nasreem Mufaddal (Egypt)
 
I demand nickname of Reichtangle should my person survive.
