Erm you might be wrong about those psi-power thingys. Unless there is some bug in your game because I just wnet out zapped a few chrysalids here a snakeman there, pretty much stunned all the aliens in the map and only lost two guys,

Researched everything...... and nothing, nada nope. No Psi-Powers there. :not_ok:

However stunning everyone on the top floor in an Abuductor UFO i managed to find a sectoid leader which allowed me to get psi-powers as well as research the martian solution. k:

Also if you blocked a door with a proxy grenade, dont fret. Simply take either a rocket launcher or a bomb and simply make a new door, Works great against aliens all sights on one door and then they get blown up from behind.

Now reading back I see many people dont like building a lot of flying suits. I understand why as they are not only expensive in elerium they are annoying to move into the proper position and when in mid-air you dont get a lot of cover.

However there are plus points in being in the air. When equipped with a rocket launcher or any other high explosive when you fire from the air if you miss you usually hit the ground near the alien instead of a rocket swooshing by the alien and exploding far off into the distance.

Also in Base Attacks flying suits rule as there are loads of little places where you can use your suit to fly up and sneak up behind enemies. Especially usefull in hit and run tactics I use in bases now (Thanx Jman) to just sneak in and stun a few aliens, steal thier weapons and escape. I usually leave one alien alive so the base is still there for the next assault.

Flying suits are especially good in snakeman bases as chrysalids roam round the corridors and if your flying your quite safe while you can proceed to blow them up or stun em.

So whenever I assualt a base i give most of my troops flying armour but in normal missions I just give a few flying armour.

Hower if you know there is going to be a chrysalid in a terrorist attack then everyone gets flying armour just to be on the safe side.
