XCOM is fighting a desperate fight. It lost the first contact war, and now it was struggiling in the war of resistance. Even with the Commander to lead them, they had made only minor progress in destabilizing the aliens regime. But this would change with a new factor being added to the battle, as what can only be described as Fire From Above.

Earth is under siege with aliens kidnapping people and destroying cities it was only a matter of time before Earth fell and then...A miracle happened. "Let it be said here and now you are the Braveist around go show these assholes that Man is not to be trifled with" X-COM commander.

We Have Forgiven those who have Attacked us but we have not Forgotten. Second Contact has Been Made and This new Foe Dares Go against Humanity. It shall Learn Humanity Adapts. Vigilo Confido.
