Getting bored with TFTD...

I hate to say this, but I'm getting bored with TFTD - can't end it - I have
over 200 nillion pounds, storerooms full of goodies, plenty of well trained
aquanaughts, researched everything, and have subs patrolling constantly all
over the place. I shoot down every Sub, have trashed every alien
activity/colony, nothing gets away, and this has been going on for months
now.
 AAArgh - I'm afraid to say this is getting a bit frustrating. When will it
end?
All I want is to complete the game (sob...)

Can anyone HELP!

Hello, I seen your request for help on the newsgroup and had an 
idea, go on your missions with loads of stun equipment, as you 
need a commander of some sort.  Stun everything you can!!  Look 
at all of your research, it will tell you what you need there!

Keith the Ethereal Commander (Don`t stun!!!)

Yep Keith sounds about right, I to had the same problem some time ago, I had
everything research, weapons, ect,ect, but the game just went on and on.

The problem was, I wasnt reading the breifing at the start of a mission.
When I did read my mission I could and did give my self a good kicking.  Yes
to progress in the game I had to catch a commander or some other high
ranking alien (there was quite a few I had to catch,of different races.
Anyway I hoped we helped in some way.  SEE YA

This link should take you to the FAQ for TFTD.  It's actually the USG by
Kasey Chang, who has done extensive work on both UFO and TFTD.  It also
includes how to deal with the final mission to destroy the ultimate alien.

Hope this helps.
