Just wait for the next terror mission. Maybe the stores there will sell you one.

I think I deserve a raise.

My work-description includes taking plasma beams and grenades for the team...

Nice avatar, Tom. Is that "Blown Up In Action"?

I think that with that kind of a death it doesn't have time to hurt much. So... it's easy money in a way. Just lying (in pieces?) for most of the time.

it's always comforting to know that if I lose my personal armour, Tom is always there to protect me

Pay?
We get paid? :blink:

Yes you do, $20k/month, even if you stay all month just snoozing on the base. Why do you think we're losing money, hmmm?!? Ressurections aint cheap, too. If I had my way I'd just shutdown the ressurection vats and we'd be a lot better, but I'm not the one running the place, Kosta is, so you guys better be glad he ordered those things in the first place.

$20,000 a month?!!1

Why pay so much for someone whose estimated lifetime would be counted in days?! Even if one survives long enough to get the paycheck, who has the time to spend that much money? Especially as we're not allowed to leave the base except for missions.
Hey... You got a point there... How come I haven't gotten my paycheck yet? And why can't we leave the base? I want to buy a tin bottle for my vodka! [/b][/quote]
You can leave the base anytime you want, just take the access lift back to the surface, as long as you're back in time for the missions. And Moscow is the nearest city so you could probably get a tin bottle for your vodka there.

And Kosta's in charge of X-Com, not me, I just play the game :P

Toxik, front and center! Your cleaning supplies are here! Apparently you're known far and wide, as the quartermaster put a rush on the requisition. Get to it, soldier!

I must say that this is weird :P

Oh, and FPJ. You'll be in charge of cleaning the alien containment sanitary facilities from now on. The normal staff had to be fired to reduce maintenance, and as you seem so concerned with reducing this base's operating costs, I thought you'd be honored to take this task uppon you.

Yet another avatar Tom. This UFO thread is getting way too important for you. Beware the addiction. Maybe you should quit while it's still possible!
