Personally, I've had a lot more luck with genemodded soldiers. In my last game I had an assault who could regenerate health, and in my current game my Squadsight sniper has the ability to leap to any height and the Depth Perception mod for extra Aim and crit when above enemies. Compare that to my MEC heavy, who got wasted by a trio of Mutons on his very first mission and couldn't even hit anything.

I swear I saw the word "poetry" in your post when I first read it

: "I for one would be a lot more willing to help if you had some proof of your claims. Considering your lockpicks, for all I know you're some kind of conman. Or you're just crazy." He coughed and took a sip of water before continuing.

: "How can I know you are what you say you are?"

But the mission ended. My covert operative getting to the extraction point was the very last action of the mission. There was nothing left on the map to kill him, invisible or no.

Such bullshit.

This is the GREATEst Kickstarter of ALL TIME.

Why do people support this sort of thing? -__-;

My squad just wiped out the alien base.

Two supports with laser rifles, an assault with a scatter laser, a sniper with a laser sniper rifle, and two heavies with standard LMGs. All in carapace armor, and the only injury (not worst injury, but ONLY injury) was one of the heavies getting hit by a Thin Man for 4 damage. Other than that, the aliens never landed a single hit. The sectoid commander did manage to mind-control the injured heavy, but it was already down to a single HP thanks to my sniper and the assault finished it with a laser pistol. 22 aliens dead and the wounded heavy didn't even have to spend a day in the medical wing.

Oh, and I pulled this off the day before several nations were set to pull out of XCOM. The worldwide panic reduction has probably saved this entire game.

Has anyone discovered a way to determine what classes rookies will become? I just got two more snipers and I have 4 heavies, when I desperately need assaults and supports.
