I don't get it... Are you suggesting such a mission can't be done?
How would we finish the game then? :P

I don't know about you, but I just avoid Ethereal missions altogether. :P
-
I see. So you guys hate ethereal huh?
Anyway, the answer for my challenge is just turn off psionic and go all out. Simple huh? I didn't mention about messing around Advance/Mod rule, right? :P
Alright then let's change ethereal race to mixed race. But Psionic and ranged base accuracy must be turned on. No more crying. :P
-
No, no, I love the idea of the challenge. But in a full campaign there are certain missions I've decided I just won't do. :P
-
Well, the second stage of Cydonia is mostly Ethereals anyway, so... :)
-
Oh cmon. This is not too hard. Because no equipment restriction. Just avoid being spoted and blaster launcher all over the place. ;D
Now it's your turn. Give us a challenge. I can't wait to try. Please make a unique one. ;)

One man (or woman). One psi-Amp. Zero weapons.
Oh, and no alien tech researched. :P

Did you tried that already? Did you win? The problem with that setup is u must face at least 1 alien and that suicidal.
EDIT: Hmm that might work with strong psyguy and weak aliens so the mind control attempt always success. But that would be too easy i think.
So, same setup with "alone in the darkness" but weapon psi amp with no bombs except smoke grenade unlimited. Let's try that.

I see the lobsterman on any terror ship mission and I just get back into the Triton and leave. Same with Bio-Drones.
So when can we experience this with OXC? :P
