for XCOM: The Advent Directive

9/27 c87 2Francisco914
You know, I've recently went to play Xcom 2 again and It hurts reminding me that my soldiers can die permanently. I remember loosing alot of fan favorites in earlier in Atlas and Hades, I couldn't help but feel sad. But hey, it means its a good game and a good story to invoke a sense of strong attachment to the characters. I hope you never lose the will to write this story Xabiar.

Excellent update, I have so many questions I don't know where to start lol. I look forward to the next update. Thanks!

Man I forgot how epic this sotry is. A clash of ideologies, views (in political, moral, and mental), understandings. I wish this series could be turn into a actual book series. It would sell like hot cakes I bet. Then Netflix would try to make a series out of it, do some terrible casting, it becomes one of the biggest hits of the season, then they kill it off for no reason.

T'leth knows about the synthesized and the threat they are, but Mosrimor believes he's being used by them. I have to assume Mosrimor made the wrong conclusion because the hunger is joining T'leth and XCOM. At least that's what I think.

Another excellent chapter, love the idea of the death world, with more information showing the complex nature of the characters involved, and T'leth subtle influence on humanity through the ages, that T'leth dreams are our dreams. It would be interesting if the commander and T'leth were to visit one of these death worlds and the other side of the story is reveal, I can only image what types of terror weapons dr vahlen would cook after taking some examples for study.

regarding the Armour/hunger? maybe kane?

looking forward to the next chapter as always, just wish the posts were more often, i need my regular x-com fix

Out of curiosity do you have any actual space shop designs for humans and if so can you give us a description next time we're in Atlantis.

just when something is out you reel us right back in

Honestly surprised at how easily the chronicler was to upset.
Still his show of power was highly impressive.
Same with Geist. He’s honestly what Patrica should have been.
Admittedly she never was a favorite of mine.
Ever since she manipulated her fellow xcom soldier to not be wary of her and psions in general.
Unfortunately the commander became disillusioned with her integrity.

President Truman was brilliant in the end, and I have to respect the battle masters honor in combat and respect to the fallen.
I also lrespect the different mind grams each ethereal has.
However the reasons why the imperator chose them specifically is still beyond me as they are each are selective in their perspectives.

As a leader the imperator is a failure

Haha, I love this, the battle master waiting patiently putting contingencies in place, mankind gearing up for war on a scale unprecedented with our best and brightest coming together to wage bloody, vicious, combat not just for themselves but for the fate of the world. The mysterious chronicler and his history.
All along the arrogant imperator waiting in the background baiting Patricia for unknown purposes.

Hmm I wondered how the situation in Australia would go and how exactly the chronicler and Abby would leave that theater. Been years since I’ve read this part.
Have to say for whatever reason I never enjoyed the povs from volk and betos never was enough for me to personally enjoy reading about. Betos reminds me of the previous president of Canada and volk is a traitor through and through. Regardless how he sees it. Arrogant as Saudi’s once was but without her practicability and the ability to look at the bigger picture.

Yes how to hurt the only agency remotely capable of protecting against the aliens. Is the logical step to fighting the big man.
I honestly don’t see why betos and cold can’t see that this whole shebang is because of the invasion, abduction and exploitation of the human race.

Forgot exactly when and why this particular faction of andromedons defected. Also the use of the metallic spheres reminded me of magneto. Perhaps the commander and in effect the other telekines could use a nanite supply to morph and change the shape of meld to combat different situations.

I imagine using the nanites in an aggressive and defensive way while being to repair the defenses by consuming hostile bodies or inorganic matter far more practical and expend less energy than psionics alone

All these dead civilizations, and ruins make me wonder about the cycles seen in halo and mass effect lore.
Especially with regards in how the imperator seems to be afraid of catching the attention of the inner galaxy.
Ha imagine in Star Wars lightsabers, and force abilities like lightning and absorption and the battle master ability to dash in short intervals.
Also all these advances is incredibly interesting to read on. The scale of this keeps getting bigger and bigger.
Elerium coming into play along with A.I, mm I wonder about the possibility of Halo use is super orbital defense platforms and if the like would come into play. With elerium and pulse technologies I could well imagine that the power generated from even a small one, say the size of an artillery cannon could kill an ethereal. If they weren’t paying attention.

I’ve forgotten much since I read this story. The sectoid hybrids, and the battle master training to epic music as he takes in a sectoid ship before he meets and nearly kill 001 was hilarious.
On a more somber note, nartha beginning to see how misused and abused the mutons are is interesting in comparison to how they managed to escape later.

Ah I forgot about nebulan and malcula, still love the hunter though, he is hilarious.

Just want to say this is without a doubt my favorite fan fiction sort I have read.
I’ve been reading since I want to say the atlas contingency or if not the end of the hades contingency.
Your incorporation of The Witcher's universe and more than likely either or combined with mass effect and halo is amazing.

I’ve been re reading this whole series since your newest update and I’ve read up to ch. 18 of the advent directive. I will be going back and reviewing each ch. in the future but it will take an awhile. I wanted to first get a compact info dump by rereading the whole story, so I could get a better basis for certain characters and references.

For one the fact the synthezied were mentioned to have ships capable of fighting on land and in space and to be able to influence the minds of others is almost assuredly the reapers.
Which upon reading about ageism’s take on them I remember thinking they were similar but I wasn’t convinced this was a crossover story.

Now however with ciri and Geralt being revealed years ago and going back into the story i find myself wondering….
Who sits on the throne? Who is t leth? Not to mention the sovereign ones origins. I know nothing of Star Trek and very little of warhammer but I believe there are references im definitely missing and I feel like your such a great writer that it’s my fault as a reader not understanding the context.

I find myself wondering if we will see a version of the master chief and Spartans. If the mass effect council and their use of eezo will come into play. If we will ever see what the chronicler armor is from. Or even if there are timelords from the doctor who series. Not to mention the flood from halo…. Or even how the wild hunt and their whole organization is in play.

Just wanted to give thanks as an avid reader for this epic story.
I truly hope I will get to see this finished but I completely understand that life comes first. This was an ama info story in of itself so far. Reminds me at times of Stephen kings dark tower series.
