Whoaaaa this is one BIG topic :D
Appropriate for such masterful game :)
NEways, when I played it for the first time somewhere in '96-'97 on my 386, I've tried to do something which brought me to something totally different :))
The thing is, I've played civ1 a lot then, and in civilisation 1, when you press ctrl+(1-9) you get the special symbols (coin, man, etc)...
SO
Being a kid with nothing better to do, I've tried to enter CTRL+3 (or 2, I cannot remember) into the savegame name during a battle in UFO, and a strange thing happened...
...the mission ended, with the results of a previous mission! :D :D :D
So, I figured out I can use that glitch to my advantage:
-Finish the mission with, say, 150 elerium loot
-Intercept and down a small or large scout
-Start battle, do CTRL+number trick
-Get 150 elerium! YAY! :D
-goto 10 :)
I dunno if anyone has already found this trick, i cannot read the 150 something pages in two months time :)
...Hope it helps!
