What subreddit am I in again?
He was in full cover bro, this is bullshit
So everyone is doing something in the genre now, except Firaxis??
Sending off your ranger to slash some aliens in a suicide run because he won't make it to the evac
XCOM-likes will literally have their own knockoff Bradford but still won't do soldier customization
Anyone else getting more excited the closer we get to Zero Company releasing?

Home away from home
3300 hours in and I just realised by accident I can call skyranger for evac multiple time per mission,I am currently remembering all the times that would've helped not lose Soldiers/a team on a Legend run.
Take-Two Interactive you seeing this!!?? People still want good Turn-based tactics and the interest is sky high..XCOM 3 Please!
