Because you can't use the intact weapons you retrieve from the aliens (but you do need them later on for making and researching plasma weapons, keep them). Going for captures early on is not a good idea in this mod imo. I went for laser weapons and then upgraded my armor first. I'm still learning but that has been working for me for the first months. Then go Africa and SA, Europe is useless imo. That way you start with 2 continet bonuses which is pretty good. You can take NA in month one if you are lucky and a fighter takes your Asian satelite out. You can go with Red Fog and carabines, that way you can deal good dmg and decrease their aim as well.īest continents are Asia and NAmerica, I go Asia and then straight for NA. Avoid exalt, send a rookie and leave him or intel scan and let them hide again. Learn when to fall back and let them come to you. Always use steady on rocketeers, otherwise they are pretty ♥♥♥♥.
After that not sure.įor actions, I would recommend learning when to steady and overwatch. You could do Xenobiology(?) first and start giving sectoids for scientiest, that should get you beams pretty quickly after that. Some people like rushing arcs and capturing, I prefer going straight for beams and armor. Ok, for research it really depends what your playstyle is.
