Hello,
Situation: Daylight terror mission (Sebilians and Reapers). Insane difficulty. No mods.
After reading around on the forums I see that this issue has been around for a while... Unfortunately it still happens to me in the latest mainstream patch. I have tried loading earlier saves of the same mission, but after a number of turns, the same issue happens, even if I start from the beginning. I also tried reloading just before I sent out the strike team to the mission site, to generate another mission. That was also Sebilian+Reaper. Also bugged.
I also checked integrity on Steam, did not help.
Edit: Task Manager shows the game as "running" when it is frozen.

Any ideas on how I can get around this problem? I'm not too keen on ignoring a terror mission, but if that's the only way, so be it. But I'm kinda worried that this problem will come up on any future terror missions with the same enemy configurations.
