Alien grenades

[Raffik]

Do the aliens use the grenades they have on them in the EA? I haven't noticed them to throw them at all, so I'm wondering, if that is only the EA and will be enabled in the future?

Not to my knowledge. And I do not know if I should sell them all or keep them for future use

I've been grenaded... once.

They do grenade your soldier to bits, but on occasion if they could not normally move and shoot at your soldier in a turn. A wraith once lobbed a grenade across a building just to turn my colonel into paste.

I think its for the best that they do not increase in frequency.

Aliens definitely have grenades, because I get them as loot! I rarely seem them use them (maybe just wraiths once in 2 play throughs), but that could be because I'm rarely offering a better target than they'd get from shooting. I can't recollect any other species using grenades.

I do believe the Alien's Grenade use is a matter of getting "x" number of your soldiers in the blast radius, as I'm paranoid for my own soldiers blowing the Throw of a grenade I very rarely have more than two next to each other (usually because need of using a med-kit)

That may change when the start doing the AI reworks so start expecting more use, like to remove your cover...
