My first Carrier mission in Xenonauts, and dang was it tense. The Alpha Reapers seem smarter than the regular kind, three entire floors to clear, and a bunch of them holed up on the bridge. Felt really glad I had set up two heavy machine gunners, because I really needed the suppressive fire.
I feel glad it was sebellians, rather than caesans or androns. Sure, the lizards are clever, and tough, but they don't have psionics, and they can be suppressed. Having to face psionic attacks, or the heavy armour that's immune to suppression would have further complicated things.
I'd probably have to abuse the androns' weakness to stun grenades if they intended to bunch up on the bridge like that.
