[deathfun]

Engineering would like to report Commander, that the first MEC unit is ready. It's a damn fine piece of equipment

Incoming Council Transmission

What have we got?

Wait, wasn't there a report from Alpha Site about something like this?

Probably, can't say for certain. There's been communications blackout with the Alpha Site for sometime now

Isn't Council privy to what goes on?

They just told me "Do your job" and cut before answering anything I want to know

With Sparda still in sickbay, it would appear that three snipers are going out into the field this time around. As much as I like snipers, why is it half of people who get promoted end up becoming them?

Either way, Patriot gets to try out his new body for the first time. Of course, he's painted in full red because intimidation




^{Must be his twin brother who just conveniently has an identical package and who was conveniently also part of the crime syndicate. You'd think they would have learned the first time around?}

"Alright, this should be easy enough. We don't have much distance to cover, so let's do this as quickly as we can"


"Anyone who doesn't have a sniper rifle, on me. Everyone else, keep us covered"


"Two contacts Patriot, down in front!"
"Another one beside us!"




"I think he could have used a few more bullets holes"
"BLARGHER, take the other guy out"


"It's down"
"It?"
"Sure as all ain't a she"
"Push up to the wall"


"Got another one!"



"You ever going to hit something?"
"Should've given me that SCOPE"
"Hey, I lost it on my way to becoming this tank"


"...Which I wish I still had"
"I got him"


"...Or not. What the hell is going on here?"
"The_Force, move up and do something"


"Well, at least it was something"
"Crap, I don't think he liked that"


"BLARGHER's hit!"
"Hold on... something new here guys"


"Another one dropping in... ha, he's in a bad spot"
"He's going to wish he didn't do that"


"Let's test out this flamethrower"



"I love the smell of napalm in the morning"
"Lead, I don't trust you. Those flames are literally right beside me"
"Force here, taking another shot at the guy"


"Sonuva*****. The hell is up with this?"


"Finally!"
"Moving up. Getting into position for that legged fellow"



"Nice try BLARGHER"
"Wouldn't of done much anyhow"


"Do I look edible to you?"
"I don't think it cares"


"It's hit, but still going"
"I've got this"


"Solid shot, though damn close to hitting me"
"Friendly fire isn't right?"
"Right, we'll see about that. Push up"


"Two contacts, Thin man and Sectoid!"



"Firing!"



"Man, what happened to our accuracy squad?"
"No idea, puffing smoke!"


"**** this ****, I'm moving"
"Hold position! I said hold position!"


"BLARGHER is down!"
"****! I told her to stay there... keep down, let the MEC handle this"



"**** you thin man"
"Taking fire over here"
"Silly Sectoid... going for the far shot"



"Goodbye. Get to extraction... and someone get BLARGHER's body"

Mission report seven. We've lost a soldier today, but that was due to a bad call. Mistakes are costly, and this is no time for them

Commander's Log:

BLARGHER... a fine soldier. Had potential, but I suppose there's always flaws within each of us. I saw the report, and the refusal to listen to Patriot's call cost her her life. It isn't the first time I've lost soldiers under my command, and it certainly won't be the last. Still doesn't make it any easier...

Hopefully the gain is worth the reward. Seems like we've recruited a new soldier out of this, but I can't say I'm fond of having a criminal amongst us

[deathfun]

Commander, you're requested in the Lab

*sigh* Alright, I'm making my way down there

You guys really enjoy this don't you

There is just so much to learn Commander... but we could really use a live specimen

There's been some delay in that Doc, but I'll be sure to get on that as soon as possible

Commander! Get to the situation room now

The hell is it now...

What have we got?

Take a look Commander

...Dear god

Scramble the team. Get them in there now!

"Who's the new guy?"
"Goes by the name Crizza. Welcome to Beta Site soldier"



"Double time! Go go go!"



"Early contact! It's that annoying little bugger again"


"That just won't do... alright, let's try this again"


"Oh ho ho, he felt that one lead"
"Swash, finish him off"



"In the face! Or at least, I think that's his face"
"Looks like he's running away"
"No... he's finding food"


"Get in there, make sure he regrets coming back"



"Oh god... did you hear that?"
"Forget that, squad, we've got floaters!"




"I really want to say this thing is unwieldy"
"Yeah, maybe for someone who doesn't weigh a ton"



"Just a heap of metal and bits of flesh now"
"Great shot Force"
"Alright alright, let me at it"


"...****"
"I'm going to seriously give you the SCOPE"
"This is Crizza... he's back"





"Terrible shot there Rook"
"What's your excuse? He barely felt yours"
"Big talk eh?"
"Oh what the hell..."


"Hey, if Doc wants to call it that..."
"Eyes on the Floater, he's moving"



"...He moved up... then a few feet back from his original position?"
"Must've replaced his brain with a piece of metal"
"Scourge, see about dropping that civilian"


"Well good, you hit it. Crizza, finish the job"


"She's down"
"I don't think you could call it a she at this point"


"Got eyes on that bug, looks like it's eying the civvie"
"I'll move in... ****! Two more floaters!"


"Change target, take one out"


"Damn fine shooting Swash"



"He's a goner alright..."
"We can't save them all"


"He's taking after you there Scourge"
"Ah shut up Patriot"


"Screams... looks like we've lost another one"
"Move up and get eyes Force"


"I'll get the ugly mother****er"
"I'll help... I need a confidence booster"



"Nice one Scourge"
"Cheers Swash"
"What's Lead doing?"



"Could you not laugh so maniacally? It's scaring me"
"And that thing doesn't?"
"Ah what the hell..."



"Logistically, I'm impressed you can shoot straight down with the barrel pointed up"
"Yeah, nicely done Rook"
"Floater is moving for the civvie"



"He really can't prioritize"


"Scourge, where was this before?"
"Shush"
"Alright, let's move to take out that thing"


"Rook, get clear"



"Is that it?"
"Yeah, we're clear. Help the rest of the civilians then proceed to Big Sky"

Mission report eight. Seems like the aliens are starting to increase their pressure. It was only a matter of time before the cities became a target

Commander's Log:

This show of force from the aliens is just... I don't know. Why did it take them this long in the first place? The hell is it that they want from us? It's been a while since they first came into our atmosphere, so why now? It's almost like they were waiting to see something... our capabilities perhaps? I don't know... I just don't

I have a feeling we'll be seeing more of these nasty little bugs. Seems like they're no match for the MEC... silver linings I guess

I can't sleep... nightmares have started up again

[Scourge of Ages]

Scourge's Log, 22 April :

War... War never changes. Well, I mean, the enemy may change... and the weapons... and I guess the soldiers... OK war changes pretty regularly around here. But good people still die. That, at least, never changes.

BLARGHER was killed last mission when she banzai-charged the aliens. I want to be sad, but it seems strangely fitting. She would have liked to be remembered like this: even in death she helped the rest of us pull through and survive that fight. It just fits, somehow.

We barely had time to change our armor and raise a glass to her, when the next mission came down. Somebody in the op naming department must have felt it too; the op name? "Fallen Bell"

We got a fresh rookie in the squad, a Yank goes by the name Crizza. She's cool, and managed to score a solid kill under less than ideal battle conditions.

Otherwise, it was a fairly standard op: nighttime, fire, civilians, Sectoids, Flaoters, plasma, those new creepy crawlies. They all go down when pumped full of enough lead. Because war... war never changes.

Except now there are zombies.

[crizza]

Crizza's Log, 22 April:

Today was the day, but I wished for...better circumstances. Sure, I was most of the time in the gym, but moving to active duty for a fallen comrade...Blargher...a fine lady like me.
First mission was rough, went by the name of fallen bell...in Australia, why not?
I nearly puked all over Patriot while flying, can't decide if it was because of the flight, me being nervous or being jealous for Patriot wearing one of those suits...
Upon touchdown...it all blurred into one crazy thing.
We ran straight into two of those buggers who killed Blargher and I nearly pee'd myself.
And guess what, they killed one and send me after the other. Guess this it how it goes, you either win or die.
So I hunkered down and I could swear that freaking thing ripped a civvie apart outside...god...my triggerfinger was itching and I nearly went full auto when floaters showed up.
Missed that four legged freak but Scourge barely winged it, but...I signed up to kill freaking Aliens...and then a Zombie walked in? What kind of freak show is this? The Walking dead?
Killed it anyway, several hits, from chest to heads...felt good to, up close and personal...and then I nearly walked into another one only to miss it?
Gimme a freaking shotgun...
The good thing: The mission was good as over, so they ordered me to get clear.
The even better thing: I was promoted and they handed me a shotgun...
Guess they hope I won't miss at close range again. 
If I live long enough...I'll want a suit like Patriot...What could be better than being a walking tank.
I'm out, need a drink.



Can I please be german? Would suit that crazy armor thing better

[Patriot]

Patriot's Log, Entry 4

Well, my wish has been granted, though at first i had doubts about the Flamethrower, i'd much rather have had the extra mobility and a damn good excuse to yell FALCON PUNCH!...

But hey, now i get to kill things with GREAT FIRE! MWAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!......

In any case, we lost blargher to a ****ing Thin Man(did i mention them being sons o *****es before?).
I told her to stay put, but noooo.... just had to run in and get yerself melted did ya? I still see it in the nightmares.. becoming increasingly more vivid and gruesome..

At least the second mission since my last log entry went just dandy, Crizza seems to be looking in my direction quite a lot.. Gonna have to talk to her about fraternization within the unit, don't want to complicate things too much in this unit, specially when someone dies, which is damn near an inevitability in our line of work.

Gonna shot some Vodka now with Scourge, see if that'll help me sleep without the nightmares tonight..

[deathfun]

Abduction sites inbound... prepare the team

^{Badass mother****er caption required}

"Alright, we've got a large building and some alley ways... let's move towards the front door"


"Sectoids up front! He's looking right at me Lead"
"Heh, and looks like they've made the mistake of taking cover by the car. Bye bye cover"




"Holy **** look at them fly!"
"I'm out of ammo, but damn I love this thing"
"Crizza, you're with me. We'll sweep behind"
"I'm on you Scourge"


"I've got something here lead"


"Move inside Swash, check it out"


"Oh ****... Patriot! We've got heavy numbers here!"




"That's a few of them... Force, take the shot"
"I am the rifle"



"Tangos on the move... let's see what they do"



"Patriot, you good? That rocked you a little"
"Integrity is still holding, I'm good"
"Watch out Crizza, he's gunning for you"



"An inch to the right, and I would've needed a new face"
"Not over yet, keep down!"



"**** man, the wall is gone!"


"Looks like you'll need a new face anyhow"
"Not yet... this armour seems to be keeping it together"
"Lead, we could use some assistance here"
"Roger that, Force, Swash, up front"




"Miss"
"Don't worry Lead, I got you. Both sectoids are down"
"Floater hit, he's still up"
"Can't believe I missed that Lead"
"Sweat it off Scourge"

"Like hell I'm staying by that car"



"Floater doesn't want to die"
"No one does"


"This is how you do it grey little fellow"


"You're going to need a scope Force"
"Sights are off, quiet"


"Da, so are mine"

"Flash out"



"Good call Scourge, he's feeling that. Crizza, take out the floater"
"He's as good as gone"



"He moved five feet?"
"Damn, gotta flash more often"
"Yeah, not even aliens want to see your schlong Scourge"
"..."
"I've got him Lead"
"NO MUST BURN"


"I worry sometimes"
"About what? Everyone, form up, reload"


"Seems like it's coming from the loading bay"
"Let's secure the meld first"






"Sentinels!"



"Let's get real close people. One more is still out there"




"Solid work people, double time it to the Skyranger"
"I have a nice schlong I'll have you know"

Mission report nine. Abductions are still happening quite frequently which does no good for the Council. Hopefully panic does not reach undesirable levels

Commander's Log:

Our team is really starting to come together as a whole. Patriot does a fine job out on the field, and I hope he keeps up the good work. Best part, is that he's always on the field. Guess having a lead that doesn't spend anytime in sickbay is pretty damned convenient.

The most recent endeavour netted us with another soldier. He goes by the name Ramirez which hopefully doesn't lead to any sort of... jokes. Of course, I suppose it'd be a good time for that. BLARGHER's death is still fresh in the minds of the soldiers, and being able to give aliens hell and crack shots at eachother will be in long run, better.

My leg is killing me right now though... still can't sleep. I've asked the Doc if she's got any sleeping pills on hand... hopefully they'll help

Alert! Enemy UFO has landed in Nigeria

Prep the Skyranger, we need boots in there immediately

With Crizza still in sickbay, we need another assault on hand. Capturing targets is top priority

What about the new guy Commander?

RAMIREZ! GET IN THE SKYRANGER

"Alright, let's do this quick and easy people. Our main objective is to capture a specimen or four"
"Lead! Check our eleven, two contacts... no, three!"


"Firing!"


"Shots wide"
"RAMIREZ! SHOTGUN THE GUY BY THE TREE!"


"Damn, that was a nice shot"
"I see you there..."



"Sparda here, moving in"


"That's a miss"
"He's retreating"


"Push to engage, we can't let him alert anyone else"




"Well aren't these guys all nicely placed for us"
"Move up Sparda, see about dwindling their numbers"


"Solid hit, but he's still moving"
"He's on the move, taking the shot!"


"Man these guys move fast"


"They luckily can't aim though"
"Where's that bastard going?"
"He's moving to flank!"


"More like jetpacked to flank"
"Last one is moving in position"


"You insult their mother's Sparda?"
"First field op after injury, and this is how I get treated..."

"RAMIREZ! STUN THAT FLOATER!"



"I don't think his mechanical parts helped him there"
"Hopefully I don't fall through the UFO here..."



"Come on Lead, he's not even that far"

"Scourge, you showoff"

"Moving up"


"Man, these things again?"


"Swash, if you weren't holding med packs, I'd be giving you a SCOPE right now"

"Don't worry guys, I've got this"



"Little guy inside"
"Where's the squids?"


"Me and my big mouth"
"Sparda! Hold on"


*cough cough* "Thanks Patriot... but really? You use that thing to get him off?"
"Friendly fir-"
"Yeah yeah, shush"
"...Right. Everyone bunch up, wait it out"


"It's still alive!"

"RAMIREZ! DON'T DIE"


"Are you going to say that each time?"
"...Maybe"
"New contact, another one of those energy fellows"


"Break their overwatch Sparda, we need you to cover Ramirez"
"Copy that Lead, moving"


"Moving to support"


"Looks like he isn't going to risk an open firefight"


"Good news for us. RAMIREZ MOVE IN FOR A CAPTURE"





"Great effort everyone. Let's grab the bodies and head back"

Mission report ten. Quick and easy, and with two captures the most productive yet

Commander, we need you in the situation room immediately

What have you got for me?

Seems like our disappearing act friend is more like an antenna, receiving signals from... somewhere

And?

Commander, it may too soon to tell, but this might by the key for finding whatever is in command

Keep me apprised of anything engineering and the labs come up with

Yes sir

Commander's Log:

This is by far the most progress we have made since the first days of the alien incursion. Two captures, and one seems to be a lot more than just a soldier on the battlefield. As much as I'd like to unlock the secrets behind it right now, the research time in the Lab is best spent on getting our soldiers better equipment. Not only that, but our captive might hold a few secrets of his own which hopefully benefits us later.

Ramirez proved himself today as well. It's good having another soldier who gets things done. He'll be seeing a lot more action in the coming days, as well as the rest of the team.

I'll be handing out some medals as well. The team deserves that.

[TrashMan]

Since I'm spending most of my time on Alpha site in the hospital, I guess I could headcanon it it as being on lease to Beta site.

Taht assautl you mention? Yeah, I'll take hte position. Just don't give me the shogun(s). I like my rifle(s). The Alloy Cannon is the exception

[deathfun]

I've got three more missions in the bank right now waiting for posts, but the next one after I'll be sure to rename (unless someone who *isn't* already in the game steps up)

[swashmebuckle]

Seriously considering replacing medpacks with vodka. Disinfects, anesthetizes, steadies uncontrollably shaking hands. Not that I know anything about that last part.

[deathfun]

Commander, the interrogation with the Floater subject has just been completed

Send me the report. I want to know if risking our soldiers was worth it

Situation room report. Seems like we're getting a little close in Asia

Engineering report. Construction of the Foundry has been completed and we're ready to start upgrading our equipment on your orders Commander

We've got another hit in Nigeria... another UFO seems to have landed

They really like whatever is in there. Alert the barracks, get boots on the ground

"Where the hell did this car come from?"
"That's the question you ask? Not 'Hey, why do Aliens keep landing here' but 'Why is there this rusty car here'?"
"Well, it's strange"
"...I don't understand you Crizza"


"Contacts, three thin men"




"Still one in play, move up and find him"



"Terrible shot"
"Show him how it's done then Sparda"

"Or not"

"Aussie here, I've got it"


"He's down"
"Move up, we'll enter through the side... front? Side?"





"Got movement here... floaters coming out!"



"Pester him, we could use his gun"



"Good night"

"What's that?"
"Incoming! Cloakers, just waltzed right out here!"


"Standard formation!"






"We're clear, let's go"

"Change of plan, Crizza, take the other way"

"Roger that Lead"



"Holy hell, looks at these ugly bastards"
"Let's give them some improvements..."



"...BUUUUUUUURN"


"Good night"

"Not too shabby with that thing Sparda"
"I try"

"Scourge, get in there"
"Roger, flashing out"



"Smoking out"

"Let's hope that helps"


"****ing nope... **** that hurts"

"You good there?"
"Yeah, after someone relocates my shoulder and gets this useless armour piece off me..."

"...Oh sure, helps him"

"It's alright Swash, get your revenge"
"With pleasure"


"RAMIREZ! STUN THE BASTARD"


"Move into the control room, take the last two out"




"I got you lead"
"You are so inconsistent Scourge"
"Yeah yeah, deal with it"
"Maybe I will. Anyhow, we're clear here. Get the captives on the Skyranger"

Mission eleven report. Whatever it is about Nigeria we'll never know, but at least we don't have to move too far which makes collection easy

Commander's Log:

What the hell is it about Nigeria? Whatever, unimportant. Another solid mission in the bag, and another plethora of equipment in our arsenal. We're making progress, and it feels it. The lab techs especially. They haven't had a break since the beginning, and the amount of research they still need to complete is just piling on right now.

I've got them focusing on interrogations as they come in right now, but we definitely need some better equipment for our soldiers. One of the techs suggested I hold off building any laser weaponry. At first I thought he was an idiot, but then he pointed out the uses we could get out of the alien tech. We wouldn't have to build it, and it'll level the playing field tech wise.

Looks like our troops are going to have to hold off for a little while longer.

[crizza]

Crizzas Log, 4th May

So far, so good.
Three missions, four kills and...one long stay in medbay. Not that I want to complain, better hurt than dead.
And Geez, that truck...With these cloacking snakes around, going on a camping trip in Nigeria seems to be a bad idea.
Had to consult a psychologist after the last mission, turned out I have some sort of snake phobia.
Although I was deemed combat ready, my shoulder still hurts sometimes, but considering how much plasma was flying when I was hit, I could as well be nothing more than a picture on that wall. Guess I need to appease the spirits and offer some booze. I don't want to join Blargher yet.
I keep wondering: With Patriot being turned into a walking tank, what else is possible? Is there maybe a way to make soldiers tougher, without sacrificing humanity?

[Rodo]

yay! you got another Argentinian! I want him oh yisss.

[crizza]

Woah, wait a minute.
Does being in a MEC suit means a soldier got his arms and legs cut of, his torso encased in metall too?
So a MEC trooper is... a human head on a...metall box?^^

[deathfun]

Woah, wait a minute.
Does being in a MEC suit means a soldier got his arms and legs cut of, his torso encased in metall too?
So a MEC trooper is... a human head on a...metall box?^^

Pretty much really. Very little about a mechanically augmented soldier is biologically human

EDIT: The above statement is inaccurate, but was referring to more what it seemed than actual reality. See IronBeer's post on the next page

As for making soldiers tougher without sacrificing humanity? I've got plans for you in that regards
Grand plans

yay! you got another Argentinian! I want him oh yisss.

Oh yeah
You're totally being renamed in that case. My apologies Trash

There's still a couple missions left before any of that stuff happens though. Had a binge

[crizza]

I admitte, I read about the Gene Mods
Have some sort of Log entry in mind and I love my pruple armor

Engineering would like to have a word with you Commander

I told them if they want to make a giant coffee machine with alien technology for a better brew, they can do it after this is all over

...It's about the Foundry sir. They're ready for your go ahead on their next project

Right. Fine, what have they got?

We've got the funds... but long run we'll need those for now. Upgrade the SCOPES

Commander! We've got some more abductions

Of course we do... well, send the team

^{I can't ever get over the badass that is the MEC pose}




"Line advance, let's not miss a thing squad"
"You're something we definitely can't miss Patriot"


"Knock knock mother****"




"Why hello there. You're looking a little THIN SO HAVE SOME LEAD"


"I think he enjoyed his meal, but his friends don't look so happy"  ^{Look at that one guy, going all grudge on us}




"Holy hell, we've awoken the hornets nest!"
"Keep a clear head, take them out as you see them"

"Lots of tangos, they're all moving"

"Big guy moving in"


"Nada"
"Clearing the kitchen"



"Don't worry Force, I've got your back"


"RAMIREZ! TAKE OUT THAT FLOATER"


"Meld secured Lead"


"Alright, here they come"





"Cloakers... alright, let's mop up inside the diner"


"No no, that's NOT HOW YOU BURN THEM"


"Patriot, you sure you're okay?"


"I'll trust you with my life and all, but man you basically took off Ramirez's eyebrows!"
"Oh? My bad. Everyone form up, standard sentinel formation"




"Never fails"



"Helluva group shot guys"
"You could say he was... a good shot"
"What?"
"See, because he was the, y'know, photographer who was taking the shot... and we were there... and he... uh"
"Stick with your day job"

Mission report twelve. Another perfect mission to go down in the files. We won't lose North America just yet, but unfortunately Egypt has reached a tipping point as a result

This is the Commander. Will Spardason, Swash and Patriot report to the Barracks

For continued service, and for being on the frontlines, I am awarding you the Urban Combat Badge. May it bring you figurative defensive bonuses out there

Patriot, I am awarding you with two medals. You've done more than should ever be asked from a soldier

Commander's Log:

Things are going far too smoothly right now... I dislike it. No matter, I've prepared for that and have been told that new armour pieces will be available for the soldiers later this week. Hopefully we don't deploy until then.

I just can't shake this feeling...

[Rodo]

*looks himself at the mirror

Dammit Patriot!

How am I supposed to pick up señoritas without eyebrows?

Crizzas Log, 9th May,

My little Cousins 25th birthday, gotta send him a message after writing this.
So...I somehow missed my promotion to Corporal...and still no nickname, but hey, these buggers failed to take of my hand and as reward, I send to of them to the...well, dunno if they have gods or something...lets say I shredded them.
But Jesus...I saw Patriot out of his MEC...this guy is nothing more than a friggin head on a box... went to Command after the medals had been granted...I demanded to not be taken into consideration for MEC duty...if possible, I want to have babies if I survive this whole mess...not some toasters... no wonder Patriot has this burning hatred for aliens...guess sacrificing your humanity turns you into a pyromanic killer, he nearly roasted Ramirez as well.
Speaking of toast and roast... I'm hungry.

Signing off.
