@dare@kamu.social That's very cool. May I ask what mechanics you used for the XCOM game? And was it mostly focused on combat (like the XCOM games) or did you change the format somewhat to include more roleplaying opportunities?

@LordStargazer@social.vivaldi.net There's an XCOM mega-campaign I'm sort of planning -- high level deals with the politics of an alien invasion (playing politicians, generals etc), and low level is about the people on the front lines. This was a POC for the setting+system, a one-shot of a squad of soldiers making 1st contact ever with hostile aliens. It was mostly tactical, though not entirely. Next session will be "wtf was that" + briefing higher-ups, so all about roleplaying. Used the Cepheus system.
