      The trick to this game is to understand the enemy AI and it's limitations. Once you do that you can literally run through the entire game with like 8 guys and never need any others. You don't need that many even, once you get Elena, that basically breaks the game.
      Using concealment with skill you can even complete the game just with 2 soldiers and Elena. Sectopods require line of sight, and can be destroyed using fall damage without alerting them. So many cool tricks in this game!

During that match I learned that sectoids are ridiculously strong, because as the enemy slapped me with max tier snipers, berserkers, and other ridiculousness, I floated over a mind control at their sniper, and then chained killed all of their team in one go with their own sniper. I suppose you could say that snipers are OP, but it never couldve happened without that one nekkid alien boy

    -Alternate using medics' grenades and Restoration ability to damage the codices, cloning them and then healing up
    -Finally follow up with a micromissiles from the MEC
    If done correctly you should have 24 1-health Codex after 3 turns or so.

      @@Thuhakman56 Well, it depends. The major problem is that in later levels the aliens with mind control can attempt to mind control across the whole map without vision(which leads to your troops to running around dropping their weapons or straight up murdering each other). And there is an exploit to use mind control to take over all the enemy soldiers in one turn. I did find a good mod for it that allows you to turn on line of sight mind control for the enemy(nerfs them to the point of laughability)

      @@Thuhakman56 Story wise, you don't miss anything besides the go to mars and save humanity thing. I guess you would miss out on the balls to the walls difficulty curve from the start, where you only have a few resources, later on you even get to defend your base. Oh, and the buttons on the bottom are kind of crap, some allow restricted movement so your scout doesn't get stuck in the middle of nowhere with an alien next to him, and others allow you to crouch.

      That's kind of the charm of XCOM2 MP, you get the guys looking for a laugh and the super-generals who think it's just like being in the army :D Both fun for different reasons!
      My favourite type of squad is : A shieldbearer, Two Rangers, Two snipers, and a Berserker. Versatile and powerful, get those shields up immediately and bum rush with your two rangers covering the berserker who runs in to trigger the ambush. Crossfire with your two snipers then after generating shields have the SB retreat to cover the snipers. Job done!
