Explosives should be used with care, as they kill any civilian caught in the blast.Īlien units actively roam the area, killing any civilian they find. They do not, however, trigger alien reaction fire while fleeing. There is no need to individually rescue all of the civilians, as any that are still alive when the aliens have been eliminated and the mission ends are automatically counted as rescued. The civilian flees towards the Skyranger, potentially revealing alien pods along the way. Civilians can be rescued by moving a soldier close to them. Tactics Main article: Squad Tactics (XCOM: Enemy Unknown)Īt the start of the mission, there are 18 civilians spread across the map, whose survival influences the mission rating and panic reduction reward. Each enemy pod may consist of one to three aliens. The first Terror Site mission consists of 25-50% fewer enemies than usual, depending on the game difficulty. Due to civilian presence, these are also the only missions in which the player may encounter Zombies in abundance.Ī terror mission's difficulty rating is always "Very Difficult," and the number of aliens is determined by the game difficulty. Having soldiers equipped with grappling hooks via Skeleton Suit or Ghost Armor can be very helpful.ĭepending on the stage of the alien invasion, this mission type can feature many alien species, including: Berserkers, Chryssalids, Cyberdiscs, Drones (as escorts), Floaters, Heavy Floaters, Mutons (as escorts), Muton Elites, and Sectopods. Some maps also have multi-level buildings. This makes them good for mobility and flanking. Urban areas typically consist of tight spaces with a lot of cover and multiple obstructions. Some of the maps are also shared with Alien Abduction missions. The layout is randomly chosen from a predetermined pool of 9 maps (11 in XCOM: Enemy Within), which are all available regardless of the nation the mission occurs in. Terror Site missions take place in densely populated urban areas. When a terror event is detected, XCOM has 30 hours to start the mission before it is considered ignored and is no longer available. This mission type first appears during the second month and becomes active as part of the "random event pool" for each month of the game after that.
Approach civilians to enable evacuation.Failure will have severe political consequences for XCOM.
Strong civilian presence, take care to avoid civilian casualties.
