With the heaters off it was easy locating the nest. I just wish it was going to be that easy to get out of this place. I don't know what I was expecting, but that incubation tube is unreal.
Objective : you must reach the red exit area in the west Loss if : sergeant Bratt is killed during the mission Enemies : Dec'Ther, Nor'Cyn Ammo boxes : 0 Equipment boxes : 0 Space marines : sergeant Bratt, West, Maxon, Casso, Lee, Bakee
Tips : - Move quickly to the wooden platforms, the green floor has a poison that weakens your units. - With bigger weapons you should be able to take out at least one of the incubation tubes by Nor'Cyn, the gigantic spider in the wall.
Commendations : yes
Before mission : Weapons : - Equipment : -
Strategic report : By Gades : I actually forgot to add another creature. The Nor'Cyn. This spider spews Dec'Ther out of the incubation tubes, and shoots some green stuff like the Cy'Coo. Otherwise, it's harmless. Back to the mission. This one's quite easy. Just shoot the Dec'Ther and continue on. The poison is actually gives you less fightingpower. Nothing serious. When you cross the goo, just keep shooting until you reach the red exit area, and use the canisters to your advantage. If you use the thrower to attack the tubes, he gets 5 experience points, which is quite essential.
By Troy : the important thing to remember here is that the slime on the floor will make your men lose battle fitness, the yellow number by the little figure. When that number reaches 2 or less the man will panic. This is normally not too big of a problem except that the mother alien keeps shooting at targets. If you guy does not move, he will probably get shot. Obviously you need to keep all your guy's moving, the pallets on the floor are safe so get onto those. Always leave at least one turn to move. The mother will only target one guy at a time but, it is slow to target so just move one square and you'll keep ahead of it. The big limbs of the mother can be "shot off", but it take a little while with most weapons. I usually only shoot the near one off, and leave the other. Once you get to the clear land the spider start pouring out of the complex in the back to be ready with a double fre machine gun and maybe some double fire guns. Something that will not overheat, or something that kills many with one shot like a mine-thrower. You will earn a commendation from this mission.
