![]() It made a good first impression, but for some reason, this game and it's mod are so niche that there is next to no documentation on it. Honestly, I'm getting pretty sick of this. But I've done all that and still no unlock. In order to unlock Wolf armor and stop getting annihilated by the new and improved crews on board the bomber corvettes (lovely surprise there) I need to have Sebillian Technician, which might not show up on a mission and looks exactly the same as every other red hued Sebillian on the ufo, a Caesan Technician, much more easily recognized due to their theft of Bradford's green sweater, alien alloy manipulation, and Andron disassembly. I grabbed the monster off the forums and it seems pretty straight forward. But there are just so many obstacles to progression! And UFO Defense and TFTD that it was based off of. Meaning to get to them, you'll have to fight every other alien in-between them.So, right up front, I am aware of how to play this game. Sadly most psionic users are usually well defended, and are found on a UFOs bridge. The longer your soldiers are exposed to psionic attacks, the easier it will be for them to be affected. Ultimately the best defense against psionics is a robust offense. But you lose any reaction shots you were positioned for, and re-equipping costs 12 TUs, making this a sub-optimal solution at best. This guarantees that if a soldier is mind controlled they cannot start shooting you in the back. Defending against mind control attacks is even harder to do, the only real defense is at the end of your turn you drop all of your soldiers weapons. Soldiers dying will decrease their bravery. Killing aliens and bringing along higher level soldiers will increase all soldiers bravery. In terms of active defense against psionic attacks, there is little the player can do. A good strategy is to prioritize hiring soldiers with a high bravery stat level. Unfortunately bravery is one of the harder stats to increase it will only increase if either the soldier fails against a psionic attack, panics after bravery lost via other ways (suppression and/or losing teammates), or is rewarded a medal. The higher this stat is the harder it is for that soldier to be affected by psionic attacks. The primary defense against psionic attacks is a soldiers bravery stat. The unit will remain under the Aliens control during the players turn but will revert to their control once the Aliens turn starts. Mind Control - Takes control of the affected unit for the duration of the Aliens turn.Unlike other powers Dread affect all soldiers in close proximity to a Preator. ![]() ![]() Dread - A natural effect Preators exhibit, affected units will lose 30 action points.Berserk - Causes the victim to attack a nearby target, will prioritize attacking Aliens but can fire on Xenonauts soldiers or civilians.Paralyze - Paralyze drains the units action points, effectively meaning they cannot do anything for one turn.Fear - Attempts to reduce the targets bravery, a successful Fear attack can leave the target with low bravery, and vulnerable to panicking.Individual Aliens are stronger at using psionic powers than others, Psions are relativity weak while Praetors are very efficient. Unlike in the original XCOM, Humans can never use psionic powers to their own benefit, they remain deeply within the realm of the Aliens mind. Psionic powers allow the user to mentally attack an opponent, weakening their resolve, causing them to flee and even to mind control them.
