Commander...

We have been watching your recent progress, and can I say we are not pleased.

Your heavies are that in weight only. You realize that the rocket launcher is extremely potent? That it can be used to destroy cover and annihilate aliens? I suppose the choice between Holopoints that give everyone +10 aim or the option to take two shots per turn is lost on you.

Your supports have been saying very mean things and dragging morale down. These are your quickest units that can heal your entire squad! That smoke they are blowing can save your bacon, Commander.

Don't get me started on your Assaults. Three arrests, Commander? This is XCOM, not a college Fraternity. These units are experts at CQC and can take down alien Sectopods with an alloy cannon and double shot, which can be used every turn. I suppose you're the type of kind that ignores lightning reflexes, hm?

And your snipers could not hit the broad side of a barn, Commander. Time and time again, we have had to repremand your units for using Squad Sight to play peeping tom on our female squaddies. Need I remind you that disabling shot is a serious threat to the aliens, and using scanners to check showers for cover is ENTIRELY inappropriate.

Despite all of these shortcomings, Asia has decided to increase funding because you bought them a pony.

You are my personal Terror Mission, Commander.

XCOM out.
