Gotcha decides they can't see me while the game decides they can. But I've been in situation where the enemies would see me despite the UI telling me they wouldn't. In most situations, you can solve this by approaching at least with one unit from an angle where you can see the full pod. Often you don't see the full pod and hence don't know which tiles might be dangerous to step on.

Now the General is this sad thing walking around slowly and never shooting. You just keep moving your shinobi to avoid being flanked. All he'll ever do is blue-move once and OW. But it's not unusual for 20 enemies to die and they get like 2 dice rolls total.Ĭase in point: the General in HQ missions is trivial (once you've killed everything else) if you have a Shadowstep + Low Profile shinobi hunker-tank him with Aid Protocol (2 specs to perpetually keep it up). Now sometimes I fuck up and the enemy gets to roll dice. If I can't deny the dice for a soldier, they shouldn't even be seen by the enemy.

Knowing exactly how much Aim the enemies have and Def my guys have is key to calculating when the AI won't even roll dice.

If snipers kill all the dangerous AoE and there's only 1 visible tank I need to look after, you can deny dice rolls to the AI. I don't do ironman, but I do 8-man GOp missions (from June onwards - you need a tech advantage). Is it just a guideline mentally to try and reduce rolling the dice or are you actually managing to play without rolling the dice at all? Are you an experienced ironman player? LoS blocking is effective but how often is that really an option and feasably doable? I used hunker a lot in XCom Enemy Unknown but here, almost never for several reasons like 1) Clock ticking, almost alwaysĪnd 2) Enemies exist that can still do stuff to you, like sectoids or just aoe.
