    1. @ceruleanspark That is kind of how it goes. XCOM can be brutal. Unless you play exactly right and take your time.
      What is this Long war thing you are talking about?

      1. @metaltao It's a mod that slows down the progression of time in the main mode, adds more aliens and more complex missions, whilst doubling your squad size and adding a squad fatigue mechanic. It also makes your troops much less likely to survive

        1. @ceruleanspark Damn... I wish I had XCOM for PC now... I didn't mind so much... But that sounds so damn awesome.
          I might get XCOM 2 for the PC though. Can you explain the fatigue a bit more?

          1. @metaltao It's essentially that you can't keep using the same squad for everything. Factors that increase fatigue include: Being shot, seeing other people get shot and being mind-molested by Sectoids.

        2. @ceruleanspark That first change you mentioned tempts me. Only reason I didn't finish that game was the fact that I spent more time looking at the stupid happiness meters than leading troops
