And theres an neat tactic to use on small ufos (but not tiny).
if the roof is holed throw in smoke grenades and wait until the alians choke in the smoke of run to the exit and place a tank near it :evil: .
This is an option for throwing grenades that can damage other worthy elements
navigation and so on. + you may get living aliens if they decide to stay in the smoke.

I'll admit, I both love and hate this game. I love it because it is eqasy to learn the controls, but I HATE IT BECAUSE IT IS TO FREAKING HARD!!!! I thought this was the easier one of the two!

HA, this game is Easy!

Okay, you'll have to play it a coupla times before you know what to research and what not. For instance, most aliens don't need to be researched, only the little greys and the floaters I think.

Once you have the PSI ability, the game turns into a walk over. When you are able to take over the aliens, let them walk outside (drop their weapons first) and let your new recruits have some target practice with them.

I got so good at it, that I restricted myself so the game would still be challenging. If you're ace at this game and getting bored, try this:

- only use human weapons, no alien technology (okay, lasers are allowed because rifles are just too light)
- only use the first basic armor (this should be fun)
- whatever you do, always have a rocket-firing tank with you
- don't worry about messing up the place (farms, houses, people...) after all, this is WAR

With these restrictions, try stopping a chrysalid with, say, heavy explosives LOL. Just keep those explosive runners away from the rest of the team or you'll end up blowing your own team.

When all looks desperate in a terror mission, when chrysalids are multiplying etc, don't hesitate to *shoot* the *civilians!* This will cost you penalty points, but at least those civilians won't be turned into zombies/chrysalids. After killing all civilians, extract your surviving team members, better try next time.

Just stun the civies. They turn alien if they wake up, but you don't lose points this way.

You've been playing a game you don't like all weekend? Damn...

Does anyone know if the downloadable UFO here is the CE? It seems like it.
