You know that that means that there was too few people left after a mission to handle all the promotions :D? So those at the nearest base gets promoted instead. Figured it out after one of my bases almost was sacked by Etherals.
But think of the "Join XCOM!"-posters... "Great pay! Few chances of making friends! Survival rate of standard-procedure missions lower than 50%!" Oh boy. Guess your recruiters had to lie a lot :D. But, how did you manage Cydonia? How many were left? |

But Cydonia werent SO bad...I could finally use Avanger so I took a lot of cannon fodder(=my best soldiers from normal mission, sorry guys!! :ph34r:) The ugliest part of game was trying to capture muton base....Even etherals were less dificult.... |
Can imagine that. It was their high armor, right? Nearly impossible to take one down on Superhuman. They look so easy to kill on the intro movie...
|
They have also a LOT of HPs...Etherals have higher armour, but less HP...But Mutons ignore even Big Rocket that directly hit them... :eeeeeh:
Only way to kill them is a HE pack under feer, a LOT shots from autocannons, or one of my favorite tactics(and most suicidual) smoke nades and stun rods... LOL |
Heh, guess it's easier to kill them while they're stunned, or what LOL?

The catch is that this "stunning" soldiers have ALWAYS primed HE pack in their belt :evil: KAMIKADZE! :ph34r: |
Inspired by certain extremists, I see? Never mind humane rights, it works :D!
|
Exactly... :w00t:
Anyway I would like to see number of my dead soldiers, I mean even when I reloaded quite often, 75% losses were in category "acceptable". Btw have you ever have negative score from FINISHED mission? :whistle: |
No... The biggest negative is always the "XCOM craft lost" with a whopping -200 score. Why... Have you :ph34r:?
Is it possible to blaster-launch a Skyranger to rubble, by the way? |

I think X-com craft are indestrucable |
