It is the year 2084. You control a secret organization charged with defending Earth from a brutal alien enemy. Build up your bases, prepare your soldiers, and lead them to victory in turn-based tactical combat.

Everything is so solid and addicting. However, there are a few issues. First, the only big thing I have: no destructibility. Tiles are indestructible.
Then I have a few bugbearers, like the fact that if you take a wounded soldier on a mission and use a medikit on him like 3 times he's just suddenly dandy. And then there's more about weapon ranges and that sort of thing, but why spend time rambling when I could be playing the game!

Altought the graphics is a bit spritey, the gameplay is as deep as ever. A bit too easy compared to the old TFTD Times, its fun to hunt aliens down and kill 'em.
The Techtree needs a bit overwork, since its too easy to stall in the early game and build up into the overpowered GDF late game.
The models are few but nice. I love it. Will write more as i went later in the game.

It's a pleasure to come back to this kind of game.
UFO Enemy unknown, XCOM, ...

This game has kicked as for years, is superior to the origional in many ways, and is one AMAZING open source acomplishment.

IMO this can be cosidered as one of the best and most complete Open-Source games existing at the moment.
The only thing it is missing (yet?) compared to the old "X Com"-games is destroyable environments, which is just a small downside though, as it does well offer the fun and charm of the old game in a modernized way.
