Glad you're digging the episodes. There's a lot more in the pipeline. I don't know if we'll make it all the way to the end-game, but we'll keep going as long as we can.
Randomly popped up in my recommended, looks great! Gotta say you play way more cautiously than me, granted I haven't played on impossible so its not as punishing, but considering the amount of casualties I have normally I should try out being a bit more patient lol. Ill be catching up to the rest now so gotta go
pretty new to Xenonauts, use to play X-com when it came. out and I was a 14 if I remember correctly. it seems you know your stuff around this game, is there a good base layout you can recommend? for some reason I lost Australian and money is tight even on veteran and I'm sure I did some things wrong (in the original x-com some things are very different and I also found the open xcom and that led me to this game). is it better to have more bases with only 2 radars (in xcom when you get the improved radar that can tell you what type is the ship and who's on it it replaces and the radars and you can sell them). do I need a crew for base defense on each base or is ok to make some bases with no defense at all and relay on my Air Force to keep them safe? and any other things you think I should know to keep my bases build right around the world? (it seems to me that the main base should get manufacturing on it since transferring is time consuming and research should be done somewhere else.)
It seems like you & I are in the same boat. I'm completely new to the original X-COM and you're newer to Xenonauts. I just started a playthrough of Open X-COM and it's VERY different. But on to your questions: 1. Starting out I'd make sure to have at least three hangers (one dropship and two Foxtrots/Condors) Build a 2nd base IMMEDIATELY and make sure it has a radar array and two hangers (2 Foxtrots/Condors). As soon as month 2 hits, make your 3rd base and stock it with a radar array and two planes of some sort. Usually you don't need a defense team at your 2nd and 3rd base if you have a strong air game, but you can always get unlucky. Build missile batteries if you think your air game needs more support. 2. Advanced Radar: Xenonauts has this, but you have to get it from an alien base or late-game ship. 3. Xenonauts doesn't really have manufacturing. You're pretty much limited to the money you get from UFOs and the council. I believe on lower difficulties you can sell lazer/plasma weapons, but on higher difficulties there's an event that stops that from being possible. I'm glad you're enjoying Xenonauts. It's one of my favorite games of all time. Good luck, Commander!
Glad you came up in my feed. Subbed and looking forward to more.

Thanks for uploading this!
It will be fun when Xeno 2 comes out soon i hope...
Absolutely. I'm pretty psyched about the sequel.
you deserve my sub!
Thank you. I hope the videos continue to be fun to watch and hopefully useful.

Yeah, Insane/Ironman can be a sloooooooow game depending on how you play it. Thanks for the comment and I hope you enjoy the rest of the episodes.
Thank you for the playthrough!
Thank you for the comment, amigo!
looking forward to the next episode
Could have been a little more aggressive. If your heavies and snipers had been a little closer might have hit or suppressed IMO. Good episode.
Absolutely. I tend to be super cautious on Insane/Ironman, but I think I need to start using assaults more and generally being more aggressive.
@@greasyduck476 Hey play as you see fit, but I understand when on insane/ironman. Have never tried that so should not comment on that!
now you have 69 subs
