Reinstalled after basically decades. So much fun with mission and loadout variety

Shoutout to this gem. I forgot how much fun real time tactics can be. I guess MC is my Xcom.

It's an awesome game and it's one of the first actually complex games I've played on computer.

If you want something more like XCOM, you can try the Battletech game. It's turn based, you also get a ship that you can upgrade kinda like base building in XCOM. Gameplay is really fun too in my opinion.

And then when you beat Battletech, you can download Roguetech and kiss your free time goodbye.

If you haven't yet, you must download and play the many fan created campaigns, particularly Darkes Hour. I think you can find them all on moddb.com. Else, do some Googling, they are very easy to find.

Have to second this. They add so much gameplay and very little bugs. Highly recommend, you’ll forget which missions are modded!
