man, it'd be so much fun being the aliens. Load up battleships with dozens of sectopods and mutons with blaster launchers. Wholesale slaughter at terror sites, wipe out entire towns...

Yeah, and imagine buildings toppling over with some polished graphics

I'm not talking killing shots here, just hitting somebody standing right in front of you. While missing 1 or 2 snap shots should be possible, it's hard to believe 2 auto shots of 3 shots each miss the target.
If an amateur like me can hit targets of a few centimeters at some distance, then trained soldiers should at least hit a full body next to them most of the time

Agree, though I haven't ever missed an alien standing face-to-face with my soldier. My policy with distances in hex/square-based games is that one square is one meter. So, with that in mind, I still think it's possible to miss at such meager distances, even though it shouldn't really apply to veterans. Veterans learn that a policy of war is "Shoot, then scream; not opposite". I figure rookies would scream first

The rookie: :blink: :eeeeeh:
The veteran:
