A tought that came to my head was that it could be fun to have defense/rescue missions after a chinook has been shot down. Such a mission should occur when your escort does fail to kill the attacking alien fighters, but distracted them long enough to get the chinook some time to emergency land/crash. You then have to defend the aliens which will come to finish the job. Another reason why i came to this idea is because at the moment an escort can be easily outgunned by alien attackers and loosing all your men is quite hard. Perhaps i just don't have the right strategy. Also i think it should be possible to send an escort with the C-17 transport machine. In later game stages alien ships pop up about every 2 hours and the transport of equipment to another base takes ages.

I have a few ideas to do with the drop ships within Xenonaughts. Idea 1) When Chinooks get shot down (They do, it happened to me) you should be able to do recovery missions. They would work similarly to the ground missions but there would be a downed Chinook instead of a UFO. Depending on the armor they were wearing and so on different soldiers would be injured at varying levels and some/most killed outright. Also depending on how long you leave it there will be more and more aliens, and they will kill the survivors off. Idea 2) This is more a question to be honest, can we buy a new one yet? Before now if you lost your Chinook you would have to load a save. Thanks for reading -Ed
