ThoseDeafMutes Posted June 22, 2014 Share Posted June 22, 2014 I'm an X-Com vet but I'm having trouble finding an Alien Leader. How do I tell when I've found one? Officers are clearly different, do they just look like Officers but a different colour or something? Do I have to raid a base to find them? I thought I did capture a base leader alive but it wound up being an officer I'm feeling pretty F'ing stupid that I can't seem to work it out. And just to clarify, are electro grenades working properly? I notice they also do some real damage and I'm worried I might be killing people rather than capturing.

Max_Caine Posted June 22, 2014 Share Posted June 22, 2014 My Lore+ mod would help you here, but if you'd prefer not to install anything, all the images from mine and a333's Alien Class Analysis mod will tell you what to look for in pictorial form!

ThoseDeafMutes Posted June 22, 2014 Author Share Posted June 22, 2014 Thanks. So it's only two races that get Leaders. I'm pretty sure I've blasted one of those before without realizing it was any different. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Max_Caine Posted June 22, 2014 Share Posted June 22, 2014 Caesan leaders have two of the most dreaded psychic abilities - hallucinate and mind control. If you're geting hit by either of those two powers (thankfully there's only ONE leader on a map at any time!) you know you have a leader on your hands.

ThoseDeafMutes Posted June 22, 2014 Author Share Posted June 22, 2014 ARRRG. I come to this mission kitted out in full capture gear. There is a tooltip at the start of the mission "woah there's a leader!" Storm the ship. Leader corpse is already lying on the ground. >_> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
