so yeah, this one is also inspired by the Whites of their Eyes challenge.
The last two missions in the Tour of Duty have a turn limit before you get dumped to the mission failed screen.
In the Ridge Freighter mission the limit of 30 turns is shown at the very bottom of the briefing and in Logicus Lifter there is no indication at all how many turns you have. The challenge prompted me to explore a bit more and rack up some more kills and needless to say, I got burned.
I'd like to see some kind of warning or countdown in these kind of scenarios. It would add to your sense of urgency and prevent nasty surprises. It could be an added line in the "turn #, kills #" window that pops up at the start of the turn. Something like:
Turn 24
Kills 18
Turns left: 6
Alternatively, a separate warning at 5/10/15/20 turns left would work for me too.
