Legacy of XCOM: Resistance

Also, for reference: Sam Steel is a BADASS name, and also a pretty Badass Mounty

Hey, if the Phoenix Brotherhood could shoot down that alien fighter, the Judean People's Front would be happy to raid it and give them a share of the toys.

 

[thomas.berubeg]

And as stated, We are happy to split the Rome Raid with someone else.

Missions and Combat

Missions are the heart of the game. Every update will present missions that could be completed by the player organizations. You may only attempt a mission if you have an available transport and squad to reach it. All missions have a certain percentage chance of success. This percentage chance is decreased and increased by various factors and decisions you make when assigning a squad or squads to the operation. For example, if you assign an appropriately specialized squad to the right kind of mission, it will increase the chance of success by 10%. More experienced units will also improve the odds of completing a mission successfully and without casualties. Most different types of missions will be provided in each update, but there are two “basic” missions that you can undertake. These missions can be taken at any point, without needing to be presented in the update.

If two different organizations are going for the same mission presented in an update, the faction that is geographically closest will be the one who conducts it. The other faction will be incapable of completing the mission. Only one resistance group may complete a mission at any given point, unless specifically stated in the mission description otherwise. Some more complex missions may allow multiple organizations to participate.

The Ambush Mission does not happen to be one that is capable of being a cooperative one. The Interception Mission is.

Order:

Defense Raid Mission in Larissa.

Spend 1,000 credits to recruit 1 Heavy Squad and 1 Assault Squad.

 

[thomas.berubeg]

EQ, what happens if your last squad gets wiped out?

 

[EQandcivfanatic]

You could apply for charity from other resistance groups to scrape up enough credits to make a new squad.

 

[thomas.berubeg]

In that case, orders edited.

 

[arya126]

Have Minh do a robbery in Hanoi while Mongol does the Elerium Heist mission in Hanoi. Viet Cong shall do an intelligence mission in Hanoi.

Use 500 credits to create the 4th 'Song' Heavy Squad. Have the skyranger bring the Song Squad to Brazil to attempt the ambush mission there. If somebody is there before us have them attempt the Zurich Heist mission. If somebody ALSO gets there before us, do a robbery of NYC.

 

[KaiserElectric]

Orders: Black Eagle needs funds, move the Valkyrie South to about the East of Vienna and send Wolf squad while in transit on a Robbery Mission in Warsaw.

 

[EQandcivfanatic]

@arya126: Remember, all these walking distance ops will double the usual notoriety increase for those missions.

Redentores Orders:

Ambush Mission: Information recovered by local rebel cells in Brazil have revealed ADVENT is moving a number of alien alloys from Rio de Janeiro to a secure holding facility. Striking the convoy could provide a useful yield of resources to the resistance.
Location: Rio de Janeiro, Brasilia Region
Base Chance of Success: 30%
Notoriety: +4
Reward: 120 Alloys

We'll try this mission. Send the Snakes (Infiltration Squad)

 

[Calgori]

I have a question, would a Heavy Squad be suitable for an ambush mission, or it's better to use an assault squad?

In description it's specified that they aren't subtle, but you don't need to be a ninja to wait in a certain spot until the enemy come. As I see it, the most delicate part of an ambush is transporting the squad there without the enemy knowing, and that doesn't depend on the squad infiltration skills but the transport.

 

[EQandcivfanatic]

Not sure which description you are referring to, and I'm not going to answer the question directly (Experimentation leads to discovery!), but you may want to consider that rocket launchers and grenades are not always conducive to returning intact pieces of equipment.

 

[Omega124]

why would you split Brazil in half? And Bangladesh should be with the rest of India /OCD

Anyways, spending time

Buy an inflitration squad, call it Epée. Epée should try to once again inflitrate Athens.

Skipped my orders...

 

[EQandcivfanatic]

@Omega124: My apologies, missed it during all of the hot map action. The update and stats have been revised to reflect your mission.

 

[Omega124]

Bah. Interception mission when I can't do anything about. :c

Gladius to rob a bank in Neapolis (Naples). Steal from the xeno xenoi, not the local xeno.

EDIT: Also I got laser weapons turn one. Just saying.
