Anticamo (drones), motion scanners (dogs qualify), incendiaries and large-radius explosives to flush them out. Incendiaries also panic them. More men and a tighter skirmish line. Bio-Exo suits have night vision (night equalises visibility vs BL quite a bit) and good resistances against ninja weapons.

Promo I is required to purchase the СКС rifle and M3 Greasegun. I don't have a Promo yet, but for some reason I can already buy this weapon... Is this a bug?

Well,

Code: [Select]
items:
  - type: STR_SKS
    requiresBuy:
      - STR_SKS_BUY

Code: [Select]
research:
  - name: STR_SKS_BUY
    dependencies:
      - STR_SKS
      - STR_NONSTANDARD_WEAPONS
      - STR_MILESTONE_1_SUMMARY

It's not possible to buy it without Promo 1.

Hmm... So I missed the message about Promo 1... Is there somewhere I can check my current Promo?

I have read the entire in-game wiki. This is very interesting and useful. But I don't remember that it says where you can see what my current Promo level is...
I remember that during the game it was somehow possible to see a large number of statistics on the game at the current moment, but I don’t remember how I did it ... maybe it was indicated there.

It's one of the very first articles, under Reports. If it's not there, you have not been promoted.

Indeed there is ... And it is marked as not new. Thank you, comrade!

I had trouble figuring out how
Spoiler:
Kyberism (to use cyber eyes, ets) works)
I tried installing the skull plate I believe, just couldn't grasp how it was done.

Was the patient an actual cyborg, or did you try to do this to some random agent? What was the trouble you ran into, anyway?

No it was an agent. Not an AI unit. I'm ready for cydonia mission. Even my top agents don't qualify.
Under transformation overview, I have materials needed but no agents qualify.

There's no such thing as skull plate. For what it's worth, at least a few implant installations have worked just fine for me (obviously must have med bay for any of them).

I arrived on a mission to meet with an agent, but they wrote to me that I was late and ambushed.
I wonder if I could have had time to meet with the agent, or was it originally intended?
