I don't remember enough details of yesterday's #NemesisRetaliation to write a coherent und exciting recap. So here's some fun facts:

I introduced two expansion characters to the draft: sharpshooter and UAV operator. Both got selected, other characters were recon and combat engineer. I played UAV. Combat engineer had the goal to make sure I survive, and boy is that helpful in this game! Recon wanted to destroy the nest, but died too early to get anywhere near even finding it. Shooter tried to do the tricky mission task. I wanted the mission task to fail, which was the only conflict in goals.

Combat engineer saved my life at least once by searching for a medkit and giving it to me. He also called rank to get the sharpshooter to kill intruders that were threatening me.
I *almost* feel bad that I didn't care if he survives. We were both in the LZ and the lander had just arrived. He failed to get in, contracting a larva in the process. Against my advise, he left for the surgery. I got into the lander.. and took off. Staying and waiting for him would've been risky, with no benefit to me. Irrational.

Him and Sharpie ran around the base in a frenzy trying to turn on the hibernatorium, and scouting section C. Even though they found what they needed almost immediately, they were out of time, and lost.
Me, I survived the end game procedures, and won the game.
