Mission Report:

Prior to this mission we recieved a highly troubling report. An alien battleship was above China and placed the entire region under high alert. An Xcom team was deployed after scientists developed a method of scrambling the battleships navigation in order to protect the city. The team was deployed in a train station with the intent of spreading scramblers along a train then using it to transport them to various locations. The team arrived and quickly moved to secure the first carriage of the train. With Lt. Arnold providing cover fire on the train roof, there didn't appear to be any threats. However several infiltrators were located and eliminated before the true alien threat appeared. 2 members of a new species of alien were dropped right into the battlefield. These new enemies appeared to take the role of front line fighters and were a lot tougher in terms of weapons and armor. However dispite the great risk our team pulled through and brought back a live member of this new species for the benefit of our scientists. Several of our soldiers suffered injuries but they managed to eliminate every alien and deploy the scramblers before starting up the train.

All Enemies were elimanted and no agents were lost.

Lt. Barr, Read and Arnold were all admitted to the infirmary.

The council will want a squad up on that battleship while it is vulnerable asap. With wounded men I'm not sure how well this is going to go...
