+100 CP: Incompetent Leadership
The people above you (and there are ALWAYS people above you) just don't seem to get it.  They're the worst examples of human spinelessness and greed in the middle of Earth's crucible.  They'll give you stupid orders, no support, and bad intelligence, but take credit for any of your successes anyway.  After all, it was their tactical genius that put you alone to hold that pass!

+200 CP: Buckley Luck
You have the WORST luck.  Demolitions pretty much always malfunction near you, your guns jam continuously, and if you're not careful you're likely to have a spaceship fall on you.  If the enemy attacks, it's pretty much guaranteed it'll be on your shift.  And if it's not, that's because it's while you're off in the bushes naked and in the line of Posleen advance.  I'd say good luck, but that would just be rubbing it in.

+200 CP: Lintatai
When the Darhel attempted to cross the Aldenata, the Aldenata performed a little genetic meddling.  Now they've done the same to you (somehow).  If you ever kill another being, or even talk about it too much or get that adrenaline flowing, your brain will chemically lobotomize you and kill you in seconds.  You'd best stay behind the lines this time, soldier.

+300 CP: Sudden Assault
You remember that phrase about how you have five years of warning before the Posleen arrive?  Not anymore.  You instead appear in Fredericksburg, Virginia at the moment of first landing on October 9, 2004.  There's a full globe force of 5 million Posleen landing a few miles away right now.  The events of "Gust Front" and "A Hymn Before Battle" have otherwise occurred as normal, but you'll have no time to aid the preparations.  Hope you're quick on the draw!

+300 CP: Galactic Trickery
The Darhel and the other Galactic races appear to have decided not to help humanity this time.  Instead, they're aiding the Posleen!  Earth cannot expect any warning (except whatever you can provide, and therefore none if you took Sudden Assault) and will have a lot of unexpected problems to deal with, from sabotage of computer systems and unprepared militaries to assassination of key personnel.  Further, with no Galactic technology to aid them, humanity's forces are even more woefully outgunned.  Hope you can carry the war effort on your own!
