So I’ve been playing quite a bit of XCOM 2 lately… kinda got the idea in my head about maybe having something of a paramilitary slice-of-life in the middle of an alien invasion kind of thing. Like, behind the scenes, after the missions. The missions, too, of course. Can’t have an XCOM RP without shooting some aliens, am I right?
Basically, the thought behind this is this: we would play the soldiers of XCOM (and we could have the canon characters, like the Commander and such, be played as we go), forming bonds and friendships as we fight to free the Earth from ADVENT’s control. Of course, with the staff’s quarters being co-ed, there is plenty of time for shenanigans between missions.
I’m definitely open to ideas regarding this, and would love to have some input! My knowledge of the XCOM games is limited, as I’ve only recently played through 2 and the War of the Chosen DLC. I have begun a play through of XCOM: Enemy Unknown and the Enemy Within DLC, but I have not progressed as far in that yet.
Ideally, I’d want to have enough people to have a full squad, so at the minimum 4. I will allow multiple characters, though I would prefer we have original type characters over canons. So no claiming, say, Central or someone like that.
I will also accept players who want to stay fully out of the alien ass-kicking action and hang out as researchers and engineers as well! Don’t be shy in making that known.
