I've been trying to get into XCOM: Alien Unknown since I got it from my wife's son for christmas out of some bargin bin i assume. To build a foundry to get more engineers i need 15 engineers and I have no idea how to break that 15 threshold. I just got the ability to research the skeleton key but don't have enough engineers for that either, and I'm down to 2 people left. Do I need to restart? The UK left the counsil and nigeria is on it's way out too.
The world is falling apart around me and all I can do is scan for threats.
my computer can barely run this game, too. it's chugging along at like 20 fps. Any way to reduce graphical fidelity?

Fucking casual. I bet you wouldn't even be able to handle UFO Defense

Build new workshops, place workshops near each other for bonus. When getting an event to defend one location out of 3, go for the one that gifts engineers (unless panic reaches max for another region, then obviously go save it).
What difficulty are you playing on? If you have never played XCOM game before and you are not hardcore gamer, just go with easy. If you are already on easy, you should restart. Do as many missions as you can, cause missions can grant you scientists, engineers and much more! If you want more advanced tips, google.

You want to be completing council requests to receive those engineers, like when countries ask you for materials or to put up a satellite over them. If you're only out two countries you should still be fine. The general answer to problems in the vanilla game is rush more sats.

So... your kid? Usually fathers buy games for kids, not the other way around.

Anyway you get engineers as mission rewards, always pick engineers over dosh and scientists.

Did you bother reading what workshops do?
Nice to see a casualfag trying something that isn't DSP-approved.
