• Well played. I knew that was going to end quickly and painfully, but I didn't realise how quickly. What do you think about this mission? Am I just useless??

• I've just checked out the stats for this mission. I think that makes it 4 wins for the Nostromo Crew and 4 wins for the Alien. :)

• I think it's just one of those missions which always ends up being a disaster for someone. You won the last game we played I seem to recall, so I was determined to you back this time. :)

• Enough said! :) I think this mission just reminds me of the "Vortex" bit of the old TV prog The Adventure Game (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Adventure_Game it's a bit obscure, dunno if you remember it), in that since neither of us know where the opposition is, and as soon as we meet a unit dies, there seems to be a lot of luck required (on both sides). Having said that, it's not necessarily a bad thing. I think I'm just struggling to think of any new tactics for this mission for the humans.

• I didn't know what you were talking about until I saw the picture on the wiki link, I'd forgotten all about that program! :)
  
  Yeah it's a good comparison, I agree, the outcome of this mission is decided very early on, and there's not a great variety of tactics to choose from. Still, I think it's a nice, quick, simple fun novelty mission as it stands. I suppose the layout of the map could be tweaked if we feel the need to change it, but personally I'm happy enough to leave it as it is for now.
