Renlocke Challenge

Much like a Pokémon Nuzlocke Challenge, the Renlocke is an optional and more difficult way to play the strategy game XCOM.
1. You may only keep 6 recruits and must dismiss the rest
2. You must name and customize each recruit
3. No save scumming if they are injured
Optional rules:
4. A SHIV can count if you only kept five at the start
5. Make a comic or otherwise creative thing about fun parts of the run.
6. No healing in battles
7. In Enemy Within, enable Not Created Equally and Hidden Potential
8. You may reroll for psi potential

Named after the player RenegadeMercury who tried it first.

We tried the Renlocke Challenge, but we lost two heavies in a terror mission. From there, it was all over.
