If you are still Recruiting throw in a Nebraskaslim. Was actually my nickname in the army so could fit there. Also I'll take scout if it is available cause you know who wants to live forever and whatnot and since you don't have a medic.
Let's all die horribly in our struggle against the Xenos!

I'm getting the horrible feeling that Viktor's luck will probably end fairly early. To have survived through once is astounding. To survive twice? Well. The closest I've had to matching his longevity is one Boris Voronin in my current playthrough. It's in early November 99 right now and he might just make it but he's still had nowhere near the amount of near-misses as Viktor.
*Edit* Well there he goes. Poor sod.

Flyboy Fancyman please. He's a natural survivor
I want him to be a unit where he can be a straightup badass

New update.
Rejoice, my valiant troops! For we have been blessed by the Omnissiah with one of his mighty warmachines! (I bought a rocket tank)
Alas, the Techpriests are still busy performing the holy rites to appease the machine spirit. (I forgot to buy enough rockets. derp.)
Luckily, that was easy to rectify
much better
On top of that, we got some new recruits!
First up is Noetherian, a decent shot with good reactions.
Jakeinator, one of our brave new scouts, quick like lightning and reactions to match!
Then we have Frankster, an awesome shot with a twitchy trigger finger. His job will be to guard chokepoints and shoot anyone dumb enough to try and walk past him.
Dandark, another of our brave scouts. His good stamina and decent TU will keep running across the battlefield for an entire mission.
Zantos, a grenadier with an almost legendary accuracy!
And a filthy coward. Can't have everything, I guess.
Nebraskaslim, our second new grenadier. Not quite as good a throwing arm, but definitely not such a chickenshit coward as Zantos.
If neccessary, he could also double as a sniper. This one is a keeper.
Flyboy Fancyman. A good sniper. Not as accurate as others, but his lightning fast reactions make up for it. He should get along well with Frankster.
Also, some idiot in accounting or whatever put him in the scouts. This will be rectified shortly.
Then we have Pedro Poncho Verde.
He is... not really good at anything at all. He will serve us best ascannon fodder a scout. (I give him one mission, tops)
Last and also least is rolfwesselius.
He will share his grave Pedro.
After several days of quiet, we spot a small UFO at high altitude west of the UK.
We send to interceptors to... intercept.
Unfortunately, it crashes into the sea,, and we are unable to retrrieve the wreckage.
After some more days of nothing at all, we get reports of heightened xeno activity in southern Africa and send the skyranger on patrol.
And promptly find a landed UFO
Surprise, xeno scum!
Let's see them hold against the might of the Omnissiah!

Probably in the second batch at this point but here it goes..
I was thinking of saying my own username but call my recruit Finagle in honour of the captcha for this post (finagle's law)

Good day sir! I am "Missed Throw," and I will help you fight off the alien scum as a Grenadier.
Oh, by the way, am I supposed to throw the round part or the pin?

You could be a spy in the resistance, working from within to destroy the humans.Vrex360 said:
If you are considering new recruits, you can include John Knight as a scout. This is a character name I have been using in many games along the years.
Kill the Xenos!

I'll sign up for any role, but as an xcom veteran I am severely disappointed you aren't playing TFTD. UFO has a distinct lack of trawlers and lobstermen.
It also pains me to see you use a tank, they're so not cost efficient
