Well, a great Xcom fanfiction could center around a mission gone wrong in a completely different way than in the original game. Maybe the aliens have a new weapon or tactic that the Xcom team has to quickly figure out how to counter. Some fanfictions might explore the political aspects of the Xcom project, like how different countries are involved or what happens when there are power struggles within the organization funding Xcom. Also, there could be a story about a Xcom soldier who discovers a hidden alien base on Earth that was previously unknown.
One interesting Xcom fanfiction could be about the soldiers' personal lives off - the - battlefield. For example, how they deal with post - combat stress and form relationships within the base. Another might be a story that reimagines the Xcom project from the perspective of an alien who has been captured and is trying to understand the humans' motives. There could also be a fanfiction where a new recruit has some sort of special power or ability that changes the dynamics of the Xcom team's missions.
