Depends a bit on alien tech level, enemy density and the map itself. In long war rebalance you get a preview of which map you’ll play on before the mission starts.
Very early on 1-2 rocketeers can guarantee a victory thanks to the power of the rockets. They fall off in the mid game though. On swarming abductions I’d always bring a rocketeer because you’re bound to hit something and because you’re often under high pressure to immediately clear the area next to the landing zone before additional roaming pods patrol into you.
Too many games I’ve seen conflate being evil with being a jerk. Few games let you play the ‘long game’ where you are specifically nice and cooperative to deceive and manipulate. I think this partly due to decisions being made modular and point to point. Your overall morality then is calculated as some form of average of all the decisions you made. Mass effect series comes to mind.
But if you want to play as a scheming villain the opposite should be the case: you set your primary long term goal (eg taking over a country or institution) and then your actions are chosen in the vein of that goal. And those actions might in isolation actually be seen as beneficial or benign. But you ultimately do them to gain trust or deceive.
It’s appealing but I wish the black font for mountain names had an outline or something to make it more readable.
Ime it’s not only the quality/style of music but being compressed and transmitted over phone line (which is optimized for human voice) and also often being way too loud (sudden shock plus clipped dynamic range).
Law terminology specifically can seem pretty archaic because there’s a high need for terms to be stable over time. In other fields and everyday speech terms can change over time. There’s contracts signed decades or even centuries ago that are still binding today. So it’s practical in a sense if the words within and those used to discuss legal dealings don’t change over time.
Eternity on Android passes with flying colors.
Off topic but:

How do you study analog emails then? Print them out?
I’m the opposite of this picture. It’s like I have to relearn the game each time and fluid play takes a long time to return.
Funnily enough my muscle memory persists to some degree though. So for instance if a particularly tough enemy is charging me I might push a specific key without actually knowing what it does. Afterwards I have to reason and rediscover what I was trying to accomplish and bind that action to the key I pressed.
In my experience the big problem is not people self ascribing personality types but type casting others. When you expect others to have certain traits you also treat them accordingly.
I can’t believe she has trouble speaking in front of crowds, she’s a lion after all.
Then again horoscopes aren’t unified or anything and you can just cherry pick from different sources and cultures to believe anything.
