I got a character with 97 psi strength. She could mind control people at 19 skill. She and another character with 79/24 are both over 40 half way through the month.

One thing I don't like is that you cannot increase PSI strength of your troops. Come on, training improves only skill and not strength? What sort of training is that?

Just read a topic in a different forum about 'reaction training'. Does anyone else do that here?

It's kinda hard to single out troops to train reactions as you can't predict the movements of the aliens but i do end up with a couple of scouts that have good reactions due to constantly shooting aliens coming around corners.

My reaction training basically consisted of letting the troops with the best reactions (50 or more I think for relatively unexperienced soldiers) camp outside ufo's, facing the doors. In the meantime the other cannon fodder would sweep the area outside. 2 or 3 soldiers covering each door should be enough (depending on the alien type you're facing and the weapons you've equipped your soldiers with).

Very, very easy to do with small/medium scout UFOs. Just take 2 or 3 people in a Lightning and laser-cannon the little suckers down, carefully.

The alien should be around and is easy training. It's also an extra 50 Elerium.
