  1. Why is X-Com a secret anyway. It's not like they're exactly subtle with their non-Stealthed VTOL and constantly shooting down UFOs and running gun battles with freaking aliens in the street.

    1. @ceruleanspark Because the cool factor is really important. Secret organizations are always cooler than official ones.

      1. @nerthos I think their jet has their logo on the side. They're as bad as Nerv.

        1. @ceruleanspark It's all about being flashy and cool looking. "Don't worry ma'am we're X-Com" "What's X-Com" *puts on sunglasses* "A SECRET organization that protects mankind from aliens" *poses*

          1. @nerthos Mostly we're a secret organisation that upsets Africa and watches people die.

            1. @ceruleanspark I wish countries' happiness was an optional thing.

              1. @nerthos Long War makes it easier by A) Introducing twice as many countries, so you can weather more losses and B) Letting you fiddle with those settings in a much more granular way before you start a campaign

                1. @ceruleanspark I should get back to that game, finish it, and start a new game with the mod.

    2. @ceruleanspark Clearly you're thinking of those weather balloons and hallucinogens in the water.

    3. @ceruleanspark They are a secret to the aliens. Otherwise they wouldn't attack.
