[Poll] Radiation sickness effect

New mechanic i am creating: radiation effect of some weapons, that will cause incremental effect through battle.
This will anyway add days in hospital, but i think it needs to do more harm. Something useful against aliens, maybe. So what do you think?

Random apply 1 of the three effects you've mentioned seems good to me..

As for effects on aliens (and other enemies) I think all enemy types should be defined with resistances, vulnerabilities & other strange reactions to various attack/damage types (like EMP might have a 5% chance to outright KO a robot but an electric attack might have a 5% chance to buff it, enrage it, make it malfunction or switch allegiance for a turn, etc)
