Probes rain from the sky and unseen beings stalk the streets. A fleet of hostile spacecraft orbit the sun, and there seems no way of stopping the alien menace, only of delaying the inevitable. Funding X-Com is the world's final gambit, but few truly expect it to succeed. (Loosely based on Long War. Follows several characters, both canon and OC. Be warned: some die.)
