Ever have trouble ranking up your weaker troops far into the game? With this hint, you can rank up your troops fast. All special council missions that are called "Bomb Disposal" have only one type of enemy ever time; Thin Men. They only have 3 life, and can be taken down easily with laser weaponry, plasma weaponry, and even normal weaponry. Send in your weak troops and rank them up!
It is not necessary to kill the Zombie Civilians to finish a Terror mission that has evil Crysalid terrorists. As long as ALL Alien forces have been defeated the mission will end successfully.
