XPiratez / How to kill a blue-shielded hovertank?
« on: November 04, 2020, 04:25:28 pm »
I just faced a blue hovertank which ate 12 mortar shells, 4 rpg shells, and 6 grenades in a row and something like 10 plasma pistol rounds. I guess I screwed. Help.
Also: is there any good universal weapon/type against anything?

Sorry for this necroposting. But I wonder if it is smart thing to use chemicals against heavy armor. I am mostly thinking about the machine pistol which does 8 shots with x5 rounds using chemicals. Will such eventually melt a tank?
Also, what is the name of armor damage stat in the ANAL section? Does it have a different name for chemicals?

Do chemical bullet always apply their damage against armor? Or do they have to make it through first?

Sorry, there are lot of questions, but I will be happy about any answers. In general I just want to know what is the best anti-armor weapon and if there is the way to reduce armored enemy to zero with any sort of early game weapons.
1 So, what is the most effective way to damage armor?
2 What is the difference between chemical damage and armor piercing damage to armor?
3 Do lasers ignore armor?
4 Do fire ignore armor?
5 Are lasers, fire and the freeze gun for space capsules all the same thing with basically the same mechanic?
6 Do all armor piercing bullets damage armor?
7 Are there any real difference between machine guns and submachine guns/rifles?
8 Any general tips for handling heavy armored hostiles in general?
Thank you in advance for answers.

Thank you for the response.
1. I'm quite sure that I saw a giant robot mod mention somewhere. Now I wonder if it was for the 2012 line of games. I can't find it there either.
2. Thank you for the info about the game assets. I guess I'll try to do something next week.

So, hello OpenXcom forums, I'm new here and I am up to searching for some way to start making mods.
After playing for a few months in XPiratez I realised that XCOM of 1993 has some excelent capabilities of making such stuff. So, I want to make a mod about giant robots, but I believe I saw somebody posting about making such mod somewhere here, or at .io site. So, the questions I want to ask:
1. Is it still in progress, so I can join and help?
2. This one I probably has to search around, and I didn't yer, but I want to ask for any tips for a modder to start with, like what soft I need to make the mod.
Thank You.

Here I am, looking in disbelief at my Norlok girl surviving Cryssalid assault without an armor.
