I think the only things that prevents me from taking the "no reload" challenge are moments like these:

- My überveteran from untold missions exits the landing craft prior to a Terror Mission. He/she is shot after the first step he/she takes out of the craft. She/he dies.

- Five troops prepare to storm a UFO. One run in, and is shot. The second is shot down as well from unintended auto-fire. The third is knocked uncounscious from the third auto shot. The fourth primes a grenade, runs to the door opening to throw it. Pow. The fifth trooper and the uncounscious third trooper are blown up by the primed grenade.

I hate those moments... And believe me, they have happened by some strange twists of fate :blink:.
1. that's what tanks are for

2. that's what rookies are for (or blow open the UFO with a blaster launcher.. or if you have MC, then have someone with high reactions walk in and do nothing else (lest they attract reaction fire), then use the other soldiers to MC all of the alien occupants
