![]() ![]() One quirk to be aware of when firing Machine Guns is that the stat used for determining chance to hit is the lower of Accuracy and Strength, which means you'll want these soldiers to have high Strength and Accuracy. You'll want a location with good line of fire, since you won't want to move these soldiers often. Due to this positioning is just as important on your heavy weapons soldiers as it is for your snipers. ![]() ![]() The downside, of course, is that Machine Guns take penalty to accuracy when moving and firing in the same turn. Heavy Weapons (Machine Gun + 10KG Armor): Very few aliens can survive an attack from a machine gun, since the damage output on them is extremely high. You'll want these soldiers to have high TU (since you'll likely be repositioning your snipers a lot), Reflex, and Accuracy. It's a good idea to make sure a Sniper has a medkit on them as well, since if they do get hit they'll usually be too far away from the rest of your squad to have someone else patch them up. Once you unlock Buzzard armor Snipers really start to shine, since you can fly them to the top of buildings where they can get line of shot to large areas of the map while being relatively safe from Alien soldiers. Sniper (Precision Rifle + 10KG Armor): Snipers are really good at taking enemies out from afar, although proper positioning is more crucial for the sniper than any other soldier (as far away from aliens as you can get without losing line of sight). If you can get one with high HP that's really good too, but I put priority on the aforementioned stats first before worrying about HP. You'll want these soldiers to have high TU, Reflex, and Strength. Sneaking up on an alien from behind is another effective way to approach them, since they can't take reaction fire on soldiers they can't see. If your Assaults have high enough reflex you might not even need to worry about reaction fire, since aliens will often fail their reflex test. the key to safely approaching with a shotgun wielder is to suppress enemies first, and then have your shotgunners go in for the kill (Flash Bangs and Rapid Fire is good for this). You'll want these soldiers to have a high TU and high Strength.Īssault (Shotgun + Wolf Armor): Shotgun wielders, provided they can get close to an enemy, can take out most enemies in 1-2 hits. I don't bother giving these soldiers pistols since if I'm close enough to an alien for a pistol to be effective I'd rather just whack them over the head with a Shock Baton (a lot of enemies can be taken down with 1-3 hits) or toss a grenade. Shield (Shock Baton + Shield + 10KG Armor (Jackal or Buzzard): My shield users act as both scouts and general utility. ![]()
