Way Beyond FUBAR P1

Hey SkirmisherDak here! Bringing you part 1 of a comic "series" I am going to work on to the best of my ability.
This comic series will be based off of my most recent Xcom: Long War experience. This mod is very unforgiving even on normal mode -which I am playing. Now , I don't HATE this mod, I actually enjoy that it is a change of pace, but it is irksome when you get your butt handed to you on a silver platter and there is nothing you can do about it.

I recently lost Australia in a Terror Mission. this terror mission went horribly horribly wrong. It seemed innocent enough minus all the burning buildings and annoying screams and yelling of people being slaughter. I sent out a scout unit to see if anything was ahead -no one had battle scanner. Out of no where, comes three Chryssalids. Now in this game, each "lance" or "pod" will have a squad leader unit; basically a "super charged" version of the normal alien type. So picture a Chryssalid but with better health, defense and more hitting power. Added with the aliens getting the ability to move their units as soon as they spot you. So now my scout unit is surrounded by three Chryssalids. I get my men to take positions behind a police cruiser, and after my turn is up, the scout unit is impregnated, and no longer under my control, and becomes a zombie next turn. Well when this soldier got impregnated, EVERYONE except one of the recruits went into "freak out mode" and wouldn't be use able in the next turn! With that, I was only able to use my recruit's hand gun, which does only two damage

Once the Chryssalids had their fun and impregnated everyone but three guys, it was my turn to figure out what I could do with my limited space. So I spammed grenades and it didn't really do much but gut punch all the Chryssalids, so I decided to retreat back to the dropship, and leave Australia to its fate -what little there was left to have as fate

Unfortunately that rookie that used their pistol sacrificed themselves so the last two men could get to the dropship and escape. So Australia basically turned into a Raccoon City- Chryssalid breeding ground. There was nothing I could do about it. If I could, I would have glassed the entire continent just to be safe, but unfortunately you cannot do that. 

In Part one here, this represents "present day", while the other parts will be "flashbacks".

Xcom will be represented with my Helix faction, and the "Invaders" will be represented by something I will not spoil at current time.
