Announcing new, XCOM Twitter dynasty

Time for a dynasty of a different sort.

Utilizing Twitter, Facebook, our dynasty forum and the 2K Games forum, I'm launching an XCOM dynasty that uses celebrities and sending them to their slaughter.

See the story here:

hxxp://www.operationsports.com/fofc/showthread.php?p=2771328#post2771328

Shamelessly looking for followers @xcomcelebrity and likes at hxxp://www.facebook.com/XComCelebrity

It's been a while since I created a dynasty, but I've been good at it before (see my sig below). But XCOM has inspired me to give this a shot and see how big it can get! Join in!

I came to the Crossroad. I took it. And that has made all the difference.

Fantastic! Always good to have a spleen on board.

Thanks, guys! (and gals?) Tell your friends. Greece comes representing, bringing our second recruit, posted on Twitter, pic up on FB now.

Expecting 3rd recruit (hint: Swedish male; this one's actually royalty) later tonight. With the fourth and final member of the first assault team likely tomorrow morning.

The inaugural XCOM celebrity team has been sent into the field, and first blood has been spilled!!

A pioneer in human history has not only met the alien invaders, but become the first man to kill an extra-terrestrial (unless you believe certain reports out of the Nevada desert). Give that boy a trophy!

Oh, wait. He already has one.

Who are we talking about? Follow along on Twitter @xcomcelebrity

First mission done, and our celebs come back alive. Before the next mission goes out, we'll be adding at least 2 more recruits.

Hmm... Scottish male? Italian female? South African female?

Come now, I bet you can guess who that last one would be.

I actually had an Italian female name hit me before any S.A. female ... which off the top of my head I still can't come up with.

Guess that means I'll have to look & find out

2 new recruits for the next mission!

Our Scotsman goes into battle, as does our 1st woman! It's the Italian gal this time; the South African will have to wait.

Bruce Willis blasting the baddies,
Brett Favre's deadly jump passes,
Zach Galifianakis can't hit the broad side of a barn,
Doctor Who in battle again,
And a "drop-dead" gorgeous Italian teaching aliens Who's the Boss

I don't know if I'd call Tony Danza drop-dead gorgeous but ... to each their own I guess

Clever. But no, not Danza. The Italian is our first female recruit. The second will be added today.
