Really an amazing game. Xenonauts captures most of the magic. I wouldn't mind a straight re-make though.

    Gotta say my favorite strat in the original XCom is to have the maximum number of rocket launchers and grenades and just go ham on the aliens.

      Even in to the end game i'd have a couple of guys with incendiary autocannons for area denial and to light up the night. The game had so much cool stuff going on. I used missiles a lot and that's where i learned the idea of an assistant ammo bearer. I'd always have a guy loaded up with missiles to accompany the guy with the launcher.
