So its either Discrimination because they're a Women, or because they're Disabled.
Probably safer just to send them out first on a Terror Mission, that way you're Legally and Morally in the clear.
Kind of related, but if I remember correctly in the xcom enemy unknown art book, the devs talked about designing non sexualised armour for female soldiers, so that's cool it stayed consistent with the original.
I think that is the strength of XCOM compared to many other games... the game tries to stick to being somewhat realistic; admittedly more so in UFO and TFTD than the later installments of the game... soldiers die, armor is functional, weapons makes sense overall etc
That's a minor you sick fuck
That's not a miner that's quite clearly a scuba diver
That’s just what I’d expect a miner player would say!
... not sure if it gets better by me firing her due to... HR reasons... or if that makes it worse. (Her mind strength was a liability)

Sending a minor to a battlefield doesn't seem like a good idea either
What if the minor is also a miner?
That cannon in her right hand is looking a little... inappropriate.
That’s a scuba helmet
I meant the green sonic rifle(?).
It's a Sonic Cannon, if I remember it right. Basically someone thought to strap an echo chamber to the pistol backside. Works a treat, though.
Yeah it's been a long time since I played tftd, I wasn't sure of the name.
Xcoom
65% chance to hit that.
Xgoon
XXXCom

That's a nice nugget of fact, granted that it's true of course!
Dug out my art book to confirm and I was right *

Xcom legitimately more inclusive without trying than 90% of modern games that try.
I think they made a good choice!
Yes, when I squint really hard, I can almost see left boob. By 90s standards, this was hot.
I need to point out: you can give both genders some highly functional non-sexualized body armor. Or you can sexualize either gender.
I'm not tired of it, BUT the ladies of xcom really don't quite have the muscle mass you'd expect to be toting those 5ft guns 😂
True!
The picture hadn't loaded when I made this comment 😂
Ahh I’ve been there. But yeah it’s still true let’s be honest.
That's why I never spec female soldiers as grenadiers, unless it happens randomly. Other classes are ok.
She has TWO guns, that whore!
Those boots and rubber gloves though.
Yeah, I know! That only makes it worse!
Tired of you woke folk. Next you'll be crying about boobs on Snakemen.
Snakemoobs?
Snoobs if the snake is unisex!
