Accuracy isn't as important when you blow up their cover from beyond visual range. That's one thing I've found in the expansion, I'm much more liberal about my use of explosives.

Blowing up their cover isn't necessary if you can kill them before they even know you're there. Have one man throw a grenade and the others on overwatch. Pack activates and gets killed scampering for cover.Comment

While I also love Suppression, I think that saying you should always take it is a bit extreme. Carrying an extra rocket that provides extra damage from other sources is pretty good too.Originally posted by regexcellent View Post

There needs to be a mod/second wave option to let you turn your dead soldiers into MEC troopers like wh40k dreadnaughts.Comment

Is there ever a reason not to pick sprinter on the support tree? I can't think of one.If there is no sound in space, how come you can hear the lasers?

Yeah because covering fire is really awesome now, because it shoots first.Comment

Also: Assassin's Creed 4 is EXCELLENT.
Easily the best in the series since AC2; may even top that. We'll see as I get deeper into the game."My nation is the world, and my religion is to do good." --Thomas Paine

****, the nova scotia freighter mission. ****, man.
Sacrificed a rookie for the airstrike. Everyone else just ran the **** home. So many crysalids..If there is no sound in space, how come you can hear the lasers?

If I had known what was in store for that mission, I probably could have saved almost everyone. As it was... woof.Originally posted by Hauldren Collider View Post

The lesson I'm learning with the Aiming Angles Second Wave option: Thin men with a height advantage are too deadly to let them see you.Originally posted by Al B. Sure! View Post
I've had a few squad wipes and failed games so far because I couldnt muster the will to continue after a squad wipe but some things I've noticed:
1. The pace is insane
2. MECs are 50/50 in my book. Opportunity Cost of leveling up other troops, very vulnerable to Thin Men/Overwatch, Have to reload all the time. But being able to blow up cover every other turn, support MECs providing the passive def buff, flamethrower vs. chrysalids are all very nice."I hope I get to punch you in the face one day" - MRT144, Imran Siddiqui
