Human commandos spawn about half of the time on escape tower mission. Mages and reverends can also tell you about them.

The mission itself is quite fun. I wouldn’t mind it at all if the score hit was lower.

This is somehting that needs to be implemented on the engine level. Jagged Alliance 2 v1.13 has ballistic features including bullet drop and overpenetration, you might try playing that instead. Overpenetration would be cool feature, the other ballistic effects are pointless in XCOM as only limited set of weapons should actually use them.

You get the most by enslaving human magic users.

The chinese dragon is only good for wiping out the ground forces on the ancient base where you get nuclear laser schematrics. It is an expensive overkill everywhere else.

Best shotgun? Mammoth is pretty good and available relatively early if you have somebody strong enough to use it.

Minilaunchers with EMP minibombs should do the trick, just don’t expect to one shot the thing.

Competent bugeye/slave soldier/peasant in human spacesuit with lasgun is enough to kill the droid. Of course heavier the gun the better. and always say in the cover.

Can someone post a piccy or two of the Officer's Outfit from the bootypedia?

Protip: If you start a quick battle, center mouse button click on an item lets you see its bootypedia page and from there you can leaf through the entire thing

Can you change the grav harness backpack from a horizontal 4 to a vertical 3?

Grav harness is supposed to have some serious drawbacks so you bother researching higher tier flying armors.

You can also keep setting a lobsterman on fire with WP ammo untill it roasts to death.

Even the rope works on lobstermen due to choking damage.

Death blossom is king of its class for most of the game, its only drawback being weight. Smartgun is not that good, I would take HMG instead for massive damage.
