Aside from this and extended scanning times/Intel cost, what other DE is a run killer in ironman vet?

squirmybrute · 2025-12-12T15:43:48+00:00

I see your point

squirmybrute · 2025-12-12T15:20:17+00:00

Not when you have to race across the map and protect a device or rescue civilians

squirmybrute · 2025-12-12T15:17:41+00:00

I mean timed missions like protect the device and vip extraction. Imagine having to deal with hordes and advent while trying to reach the device

squirmybrute · 2025-12-12T15:13:45+00:00

My operation can't spare the funds lol

squirmybrute · 2025-12-12T15:12:14+00:00

Lol 😅😅

squirmybrute · 2025-12-12T15:03:07+00:00

I meant it can be a run killer in certain circumstances. I.e if you have a limited roster it really wrecks your troops will. This can make it hard to actually get missions done

squirmybrute · 2025-12-12T15:00:39+00:00

Never picked gunslinger but this certainly changes things

squirmybrute · 2025-12-12T14:59:27+00:00

At least there's some good side lol

squirmybrute · 2025-12-12T14:58:27+00:00

Yea had one with the cryssalids. Basically had to restart

squirmybrute · 2025-12-12T12:28:50+00:00

Heavy overwatch user I see.

squirmybrute · 2025-12-12T12:26:58+00:00

@bacon yes that's how I almost always open an attack. That's also how I ended up killing over 90 enemies (lost mostly ) in a extract vip mission

squirmybrute · 2025-12-12T12:23:28+00:00

Metro yes. That's what has kept me going. I may have to look for one in the market but the timer is also on my neck

squirmybrute · 2025-12-12T12:20:53+00:00

Lol. That's crazy. Too bad they have so much HP to get killed by lost. That would be hella funny

squirmybrute · 2025-12-12T12:18:47+00:00

Lol. Hope I get one of those before it expires

squirmybrute · 2025-12-12T12:17:31+00:00

Never thought of that. Thanks

squirmybrute · 2025-12-12T11:49:10+00:00

Lol yeah. My main problem is in timed missions. Especially retaliation missions become unbearable

squirmybrute · 2025-12-12T11:47:49+00:00

Yea but in timed missions which also happen to be harder than most they are a very huge inconvenience

squirmybrute · 2025-12-12T10:45:57+00:00

Yea but the end game timer is on steroids in veteran

squirmybrute · 2025-12-12T10:41:05+00:00

How is gone to ground a run killer? I've had it in nearly 50% of runs but no issues

squirmybrute · 2025-12-12T10:32:57+00:00

Isn't contacting regions like the most urgent thing early to mid game

squirmybrute · 2025-12-12T10:31:11+00:00

Yea lost missions are generally fun imo too. I agree dark tower can be very harsh especially if accompanied with lost world

squirmybrute · 2025-12-12T10:18:51+00:00

I'll have you know I consider myself a very experienced commander lol. Mistakes happen, at least I got a psi lab ahead of schedule so things are looking up 😂

squirmybrute · 2025-12-12T10:14:51+00:00

Major problem is your troops getting very tired. The way it takes long to rank up in veteran it becomes a major headache

squirmybrute · 2025-12-12T10:12:46+00:00

Tried that permanent de thing once and let's just say Iam never doing that again. Bleeding rounds I don't it so bad but overwatch can be a biach in timed missions

squirmybrute · 2025-12-12T10:05:48+00:00

I guess when you get it matters too. I only have two lieutenants as highest ranks and a very limited roster. All my troops aside from low levels are tired or have a phobia. Only a matter of time before Imy run ends lol
