Game become more easier with Danforth

[VOLAND]

@Rainer

it’s still possible to disarm your troops and run them at the siren and use them as WP bait if need be, both saving them and wasting Siren turns.

Another addition to the list of known exploits, next to healthcare obsession…

@Rainer

Most enemies are shredded apart in seconds by the basic assault rifles even on the 10th-20th missions.

That’s a bug introduced in Derleth… See here Laser Rifle armor shredding

@Rainer

Enemies just walk out into the open, expose themselves and often set up overwatch into areas that don’t even have the range to hit your units. They will often move to a good spot behind cover, then use up the rest of their AP to expose themselves for no reason before ending the turn.

You are right, there are occasionally some very odd behaviors from enemies, especially the Foresaken. I wonder if it has to do with the short range of their weapons? So at the time of evaluating their move they consider closing the distance to the player as a bad move because they can’t attack on the same turn and it will leave them more exposed?

Sometimes they do behave adequately - at least close the distance.

@Rainer

Also why do I have to then run around and collect all of these crates for 10 turns with no opposition?

This must be a bug/missing feature, same as with the ambush missions. I don’t recall ever seeing the Pure or the Foresaken arriving off map (receiving reinforcements).
