It does not:

Code: [Select]

If we want to seriously increase our research speed, this is our best bet

I took the wrong word. After the pedia it increases research speed not the research time.
But obviously it houses only the brainers.

[Rince Wind]

Because you can reasearch more quickly with more brainers.

I need to research Human Powered Armor.

What are the requiremtents for this? In the tech tree isn`t written, what I need.

Need this to get the guardian armor.

We seriously need to fix this thing where the item name and Bootypedia article name don't match.

How is the enemies progress triggered in this mod? (Since SG and the factions don`t do research missions).

[Rince Wind]

Time and your research.

Encountered Silacoid (Rocky) for the first time. What is their vulnerability?

An strong and melee adept gal with an bardiche xD.

Warp damage basically. It is resistant against lot of things. High damage piercing weapons are good too. And explosives work wonders (low under armor), those grenades are going to be useful. It has high HP, so, use two or three for a "1 hit" kill.

Concussive and chemical damage. So, explosives, acids/chemical munitions (best to have something fast firing to wear down the armor because it's rated at 50 all around and chem munitions don't generally hit hard), or Hammer/Anchor.

EDIT: AP ammo will also work well. And Spears in the hands of a trained Gal should make short work of them.

What is your best way to deal with tanks?

I see the tank, I shot at it, it reaction fire me and I save scum, until it drops. But that is no fun.

[legionof1]

Dont shoot at it, unless your gun will one shot the tank or its already expended its TU and cant reaction fire. Throw timed explosives, or maneuver for melee attacks with concussive or cutting weapons(to avoid death explosion) Neither melee or timed explosives trigger reaction checks. Moving will but sprinting to melee range is often fewer TU then shooting the guns that can reliably dent tanks.

I'm not sure there's a "best" way to deal with anything, except maybe a BFG lol.  EMP grenades would probably be ideal, especially if you can toss them without being in line of sight, along that same thought, satchel charges work as well, range might be an issue since they're pretty heavy.  Rocket launchers work great, I'm a big fan of plasma rockets but explosive-DP or Mag rockets work too.  Panzerfausts work too, although I'm less of a fan since they switched to arcing instead of direct fire.  Melee works surprisingly well, I've had a Syn rip through 3 tanks in 1 round with a vibro axe.  Chaingun type weapons can work too but you'll probably need to hit the rear armor (not all chainguns, you'll need some AP like laser, or armor damaging like XG).  I'm sure it's possible to one shot a tank with other options but it would probably be less consistent.

[Ethereal_Medic]

Also mortar-fire and excess use of other grenade-types.
Hellerium Grenades should be enough to deal with most non-floating HWPs.

[LouisdeFuines]

Ok, I`ve come to the same conclusion with nades.

One thing about VIPs. How can I get them best aside from retialations?
