So my friends and I devised a drinking game to celebrate New Years into 2015! We made the mistake of playing with liquor and didn't even get into the second mission by the time we were plastered. So this time around we are playing with beer! There are a few details that need to be clear before diving into these rules.

1) This drinking game was built around the Long War mod for Enemy Within
2) While XCOM isn't a co-op game, my friends were creative enough to assign specific characters to ourselves; when it is that character's turn, they take control of the game.
3) PLAY WITH BEER! Long War is already infamously hard, liquor is evil!

Now... Without further ado, here are the rules for the XCOM drinking game!
