Was it the gardener?

I liked it as well. They put some effort into it once more.

The Avenger just got shot down. I blame Gorgon. A mission to his liking. Killed 15/18 ADVENT. One officer with half his goons from the last wave survived. But I was running low on ammo, and cover was falling apart. So I made a run for it when I could.

Posting more XCOM 2 screenshots, so Keyrock can post more Agatha Christie ones This series is titled "The winner takes the enemy's head. And with it their XP. In the end there can be only one. May it be the XCOM Ranger."

Loading can take a bit longer than justified. Once Viper physics caused lag - but only once.

Bah! Watched that Blacksite mission too many times in previews. When

Slithered 'round the wrong rock formation, did you? Concealed ADVENT XCOM Turret XCOM Turret, XCOM Turret does whatever XCOM Turret does Lootin' Guess who will miss this shot... The problem with destructible terrain. The enemy can blow it up too.

Whoah! Just got my first mission without a timer! Going to save it for later. I want to savor it

Considering it, indeed

I got chatter from Central saying that our extraction point was no longer viable and I'd have to secure a new one. The game gave me three waypoints. 1st was near the VIP location but also right behind the ADVENT reinforcement flare. 2nd was a short distance behind enemy lines, which would have meant my squad would have had to shield the VIP while he dashed past. 3rd was a distance back, closer to my entry point, but also high up and with the ladders on the far side of the building - so safest, but needed more turns to reach. Basically it was 1st point - 1 turn dashing. 2nd point - 2 turns dashing. 3rd point - 3 turns dashing. The moment I extracted from one, the other options went poof I chose the safest option which did result in one ADVENT officer surviving.

The extraction point makes a lot of difference. I had one on the roof of a tall building behind my squad. So I dashed the VIP there, knowing the route to be safe. But it meant that I had to slowly fall back with the squad while ADVENT pushed towards me. Had I selected the extraction point near to ADVENT's drop zone, I could have flanked them, taken them out and strolled up for the evac.

My extract VIP mission I barely made it to the evac zone. My ranger and grenadier had been covering the retreat and needed a full dash on the last turn to reach the rooftop evac. My mistake for choosing the "safe" evac point

Just rage quit out of XCOM2. Seriously annoying how often Central interrupts you with crap. Click scan. "Commander..." Listen to him prattle on. Click scan. "Commander..." Watch cutscene, do mission. "Click Scan. "Commander..." Listen to Bradley, watch cutscene, listen to Bradley. Click Scan. "Commander..." @*&%@ Off!

That's when I tried to do mine and it took ~50 mins

Central keeps shouting at you that enemy interceptors are inbound,and that your pilot will have to pull out or be shot down

Took me about 50 >

My Smuggler got Brain Trauma First fight she kept running from the Skaven. She got cornered, but swapping to sword and dagger, and with help from a Sister Superior and Purifier, she cut a swath through the rats. Second fight she sighted the cult Magister. She took aim and shot true, crippling and stunning him as the skirmish's opening act. She placed a powder trap to cover her retreat, yet the Marauder just danced around it and with his sword arm, slicey dicey... and then the Chaos Spawn came bounding around the other corner and everything went black for her.
