i've made units without spawn points spawn next to their kin, instead of not at all on superhuman.

With flat vanilla explosion it's the most safe formation for cyberdiscs. Not to explode each other. Not to be an obstacle to each other. Really smart.

oh shit, it's true!


Anyway I think that lots of smoke and a bit of luck can save you form this circumstance.

I noticed a similar placement of 3 cyberdiscs in my current game (superhuman) on terror mission 1, I thought this was just a random fluke of ai placement. My poor mortar tank took some pasting coming off the ramp, thankfully I use improved ground tanks and usually have explosion height @ 3 as less than 3 doesn't make sense to me by the laws of physics! In a sense with explosion height variable in the advanced options this really is a major exploit u can take advantage of.

Or a couple of decent psychics to mind control a couple of the discs.
