Today We Play: UFO Afterlight

UFO Afterlight
 It have been 10 years since my last adventure on Mars with this awesome game. This time I played on hard difficulty and it was really a challenge until I get at least the shotgun. 
4k Experience
4k Experience. There is more later, but in the beginning the people get too little, 200-400. Either beastmen give a lot XP or a soldier with higher level pulls the cap up. 
All Over Me
 All Over ME, again! 
The Annihilator
 I'm testing the Annihilator, the ultimate weapon. Well I still miss the Shotguns and the Heavy Laser.
The Base
 A glimpse of the base.
Defending Excavation Sites
 Defending Excavation Sites. The excavation sites are good source of XP, do not rush to close them. The reticulans are here only to get some XP too.
Closing the Gates Mission
 After Closing the Gates Mission Harold leaves and you get his daughter as team member.
The Globe
 The Globe before terraformation. The Expedition hasn't arrived yet. The beastmen atacking excavating sites occasionally.
Testing Heavy Suits
 The Heavy Suits are crap. People can not run with them. For tank I use a robot with turtle armor, very handy.
The Lightning Thrower
 The Lightning Thrower is the other ultimate weapon. It can be used only by techs with Driving training. Playing with  Lightning Throwers is a totally different strategy!
In the Martian Base
 Two green men with swards in the Martian base.
UFO Afterlight Robots
 Cleaning some robots from the neutral missions. I must be hurry to make this missions before beastmen take the sector and scrap it.
UFO Afterlight Squads
UFO Afterlight Squads Being able to get the twins, my main forces are 3 military personel, 2 medics and t mechanics. Doing specific missions I place two military personel, 2 medics, 2 mechanics, and one robot, or reticulan or martian.
UFO Afterlight Starting Mission
UFO Afterlight Starting Mission
UFO Afterlight Excavating Site Combat
Combats in the excavating sites are quite different, It is good to have a tank to scout ahead.
UFO Afterlight Workshop
The workshop is where we produce our weapons and equipment. We can not sell equipment in UFO Afterlightm but can trade it with other races.
UFO Afterlight Hot Red Desert
A hot red desert and the shotgun. This is good for song name :)
UFO Afterlight Defending Mars stations
Defending Mars stations.
UFO Afterlight Defense Line
Kitty kitty in the trap.
UFO Afterlight Reticulan Base Attack
UFO Afterlight Reticulan Base Attack. Plaing against reticulans is always good to have own reticulan in the squad to detect them. But not on expedition base missions. Expedition soldiers are very potent and may kill a reticulan with a mere thought :)
UFO Afterlight Terraformed Planet
UFO Afterlight Terraformed Planet.
UFO Afterlight Ooooh the Matriarch is here!
Ooooh the Matriarch is here! but this robort, it can stand this :)
UFO Afterlight Matriarch under control
And when you are bored, you can always try and take a matriarch under control with your reticulan medic, during summer vacation :)

UFO: Afterlight - Gathling Gun Ambush

UFO Afterlight - Gathling Gun Ambush Description
UFO Afterlight PC Game - More explanation screenshots
RTT genre iconRTS genre iconFuturistic style iconyear 2007 icon
It was a calm night on Mars, when one of the installation structures appeared to be attacked by the Rticulans. In UFO Afterlight PC video game, the Reticulans are not the strongest enemy, and they will even become allies at some point. Because the team was familiar with the terrain, they put on Gatling guns and positioned at the end of the forming tunnel on thе low ground. Gatling guns are the soul reapers for Reticulans, because they are physically week and come in many numbers, a spray of bullets from five soldiers is just a slaughter. During night, the team can't actually see them, but being psychically active, Reticulans are easily detected by Psi detection. Night vision helps too.

And Rita, always free minded and disobedient, she is standing over the highground with the shotgun observing the battle. Although her role seems lazy, she is guarding that one entrance from above (seen on the minimap)

  • Good weapons to fight the aliens in UFO Afterlight:
  • Reticulans - Gathling Guns, Snipers, Shotguns;
  • Beastmen - Shotguns, Plasma, Warp weapons;
  • Beastmen Pets - Shotguns, Gathliing Guns;
  • Martians - Saw Blades, Warp weapons;
  • Ghosts - Plasma weapons, Warp Guns.

Unlike previous UFOs from the series, the personnel here is irreplaceable. They have their own personality and are in some family relationship. Beside, they are the men doing the research and the mechanics, as they are the only ones awake on Mars.

There is a pack of Beastmen. Harold and Diego are already aiming the warp guns for the first two frags. The reticulan in the squad is not a bug. In UFO Afterlight we receive two reticulans to fight for us. Beside all, they are good researchers and have cool mind abilities to detect enemies.

Here is how Mars looks after terraformation. The reticulans are easy targets for the gathling gun and the robot in the squad excellent for exploration and taking damage.
