I know this is REALLY late, but thanks for the guide as it is still really helpful even in 2025.

It does if you’re actually flying. I don’t know, maybe when you wrote this there was a bug with it, but it gives you elevated bonus if your soldier is in the air.

great guide to XCOM, well written and not too complicated.

covers pretty much everything the tutorial left out and gives me a fighting chance of re-playing it on a harder level.
when i first started playing it on normal i was gutted, soon as i start the game my soldiers get killed and i lose the Russian funding.
restarted it on easy and still got my ass kicked but carried on.

well done on a great XCOM 101 Hentzau

Actually the research thing is interesting – in Civ, falling behind on research means that you’re beating tanks with pikemen. Here, where progress seems to be checkpointed, you suggest you’re almost better off taking your time. Certainly I have the problem where I have some cool kit on paper but no money to make it.

Could you do an update/extension that goes over what classes should be doing, what they should never be doing, etc.?
