I have been playing for a few hours now, around 10 missions or so.
What I find interesting is how varied they have been.
- I have had missions where i took my time and setup a great ambush, to kill a mnuton in one turn.
I have had missions where I have had so sneak along the adges, kill one group, rescued the VIP and then boogies
I have had a mission where I was uverwhelmed, send in a specialist to free the VIP, who then ran from cover to cover an miraculously made it to extraction. The poor specialist didn't.
Ive had a few missions where my xcom2 vanilla habits got me killed - after a reload i discovered that it was far better to dig in and have a prolonged firefight - no need to alphastrike everything.
