I have gone years gametime without seeing the bands and usually they die to any interceptor I send. I wish the bogeys on some of the dark one missions carried them.

Thanks. I take it you mean a roving band of them? What vehicle do you use to engage them without destroying them?

Taking the El Fuego to the Temple of Sirius mission in the attached save causes a crash with the error message "no xcom units could be placed on the map".
Removing the custom unit deployment on the El Fuego (by removing and adding a unit in the crew select screen so that the Preview* button becomes Preview) seemed to "fix" the crash.
A custom unit deployment that is just a copy of the default deployment also crashes, so I do not think the actual placement of the units is the cause of the issue.

Some people in the Xpiratez bug report chat room reported that they were NOT able to reproduce the issue with the provided save. I downloaded a fresh copy of the latest Xpiratez (vN1.1) and was still able to reproduce the issue myself, so I don't believe any of my settings or file corruption is to blame.

I'll be happy to provide any other info or help with testing if needed

I had the same issue but was sending 2 Gnomes to the Highway Star bike mission underwater with a Blowfish.

Scavenging and Treasure Hunting.....How?

If you buy a Recon expedition from the Black Market, you can debrief etc. But I have no idea how to use the Treasure Hunting or get the items needed to do the Scavenge: Antarctica etc.
Any tips?
