My last 2 campaigns (1.4, L/H) have come to a screeching halt due to the 'UFO hunts the Avenger' dark event. Foremost, I didn't think it was worth skipping every mission to keep my best soldiers available for an unknown amount of time until the UFO popped, so I was using a B squad each time. By turn 2 there are 15-20 ayys in front of the ramp, and few cover options for my squad. Even with smoke and CC, 20 shots at 25% make my squad look like swiss cheese pretty fast.
What are your tactics for Avenger defense?

Re: Avenger Defense Tactics
Lots of shredder guns, or even better shredstorm cannons. The way the map is organized, all the aliens come from one direction, and there is a ridiculous number of them, so shredders become incredibly efficient. I've killed like 25 enemies in a turn on the UFO defense.
