Cult of Apocalypse is in mission where I should go wearing only regular clothes and armed with little pistols. And there's like twenty of them there, and they are armed with some weapons I never seen before. How am I supposed to win them, ffs? Even if use heliocoper, they still outgun me.

I assume this is very important mission, vital for driving of script of the game, so I must win. I just can't.

There's something with difficulty in this game, I reached a point when I lose every fight, Red Dawn or Cult of Apolcips soldiers never miss, have more advanced weapons than me, have grenades. While my agents have only kevlar vests, 44 magnum pistols and hunting rifles. And miss like 2/3 of shots.

And i play on lowest difficulty. Is this a bug or it supposed to be so?

Thanks.

It's quite stupid that I can't have grenades. Today was attack on Red Dawn outpost, helicopter landed right in front of their building and they were waiting. 4 red dawn soldiers in like 8 tiles from heli landing site. Half of my agents die on the first turn, from reaction fire. And one of them even had grenade! it was total catastrophe.

I bought a helicopter and there's a little circle over it on the World Map. What is it?

Symbols over the unconscious, the bleeding and sleeping I understand, but today was some new, that looked like ghost? What is the meaning of it?

Thanks, I will try shotguns.

Also, is there an other weapons apart from stun rod and taser to incapacitate enemies? Ranged of course. I must take some Red Lotus officers alive and it is hard, they keep killing me.

What is the best weapon to kill zombies? I keep swarmed by them, even with a van. Fat zombies are esp hard, it takes 5-6 shots from 44 Magnum to make them 'sleep'. Mp5 is even worse. Is there a solution to kill them fast?
