We've known and have anticipated an alien assault. We've built secret bases in every continent and pushed technology as far as humanly possible and recruited the best soldiers from around the world but is it enough? We have both dreaded and awaited the call from the council, activating the program. That call has arrived and in all it's horrors. First U.F.O appears over Europe seeming to observe but shortly hostile forces dropped. The program has been activated and personnel have arrived at their stations ready to defend Earth and all it's people. Who will you be in this time of terror? What are you willing to do to save humanity?
This based off of one my favorite strategy games of all time. There will be five different job classes. The five classes are soldier (Will see majority of action but will also be in most danger), command (Head of one of the bases, only five will be available.), scientist (one of the more 'safe' classes, experiment with alien technology), engineer (again one of the more 'safe' classes, build and construct weapons, vehicles, etc. for the program), and finally operative (In field agents scattered across the world looking for alien tech and any alien activity, in almost as much danger as soldiers)
All classes have sub-class that will be available as you rank up, kill aliens, or overall performing well in your job.

Two armed soldiers are escorting you aboard what appears to be a mix between a helicopter and a jet. The inside of the aircraft contains seating for at most 20 people and most of them are filled with various people of varying gender and race.

You were one of the first to arrive to the North American base as you are the commander there. The facility lies below the rocky mountains and it is one of the large bases of the five. Mission control, where you will mostly be at, is full of high-tech computers and monitors all centered around a large holographic model of the earth with the positions of other bases marked. The majority of the base's personnel will not arrive for awhile yet but there is a skeleton crew preparing and booting everything up for the bulk to arrive.
(I decided to let you all assign your points. It will let you decide how well you do in your classes. If you have any questions please ask and if you have any suggestions, I'm open to hear them.)

Ironically, it was for his insubordination rather than his heroism. During a mission to capture a high-value Taliban commander, the KSK would only be able to capture, not kill the commander, due to hands-tied policies Germany had. Normally, no one would fire and would be forced to let him go. Rudolf, in a state of temporary recklessness, shot and killed the commander. He was set to be court-martialed for committing a war-crime, (killing a person without leave from command or protocol) when X-Com took him in for his previous service and his alleged "results at all cost" attitude.

The hatch at the back of the aircraft closes and you can hear jets roaring as it shoots upwards and then a few seconds later a different set of engine roar as it streams forward towards the X-com Base. The others on board talk amongst themselves when a fairly old man with balding gray hair sitting next to you says "Never in all my years of engineering or rather my life have I seen something like this. The name's Charles. What division have you been recruited into?" he asks friendly

(I meant to say distribute 60 points throughout your stats.) A man wearing a dark yellowish vest appoarches you "Hello Commander, all perosonnel are currently in transit and should be in the base within the next half-hour. Is this your first time viewing the be base, sir?" he asks

The European branch of the X-com program is already fully staffed and functioning. The base located in the mountains of Sweden. You are currently in the barracks of the base where all the soldiers await deployment. You have been assigned to Viper Squad, one of the more 'basic' squads. Each squad has their own barracks, which you are currently in, and with the most elite squads getting better arrangements. The door to the barracks slides open to reveal a tall, black-haired woman who walks in slowly. The other soldiers immediately stand up at attention with the soldier closest to the door yelling "Squad leader present!"

You have just arrived in the hangar of the North Amercian branch of the X-com program, many other soldier recruits stand in a group as a Officer standing on a podium give you all the orientation, it drags on for a little bit but it finally ends with you all being directed to follow a few lower-ranking officers to your barracks where you will be assigned a squad.

I stand up and snap to attention. "Guten tag, squad leader!"
