Multiplayer (EU2012)
Game Options
- You can play a Ranked Match, Quick Match, or Custom Match.
- Games normally allow you to spend 10,000 points worth of units.
- Custom matches allow you to set the point limit to 7500, 10000, 20000, or Unlimited.
- Custom matches allow setting the turn timer to 45 seconds, 90s, 120s, or No Time Limit.
- You can choose from five maps, including Bar, Grand Cemetery, Police Station, Trainyard, or Boulevard.
Available Units
- You can select from a number of different human soldiers with a wide array of customization options, or any alien unit.
- You can have 1-6 units in your squad.
- Human soldiers get to choose a class and specialization, primary weapon, secondary weapon, armor, and item(s). You don't get to choose exactly what rank and abilities you desire. Instead, there's a few options for each class type of varying ranks, point costs, and suite of abilities.
- Aliens don't have any customization options, though you can choose from most aliens in the game. You cannot choose Outsiders or Sectopods. Ethereals are so costly they can only be used in custom games with higher than normally allowed point allocations.
Unit Stats
Units are essentially the same as units in the normal game difficulty.
- Humans are equipped with only the most basic weapons for their class and no items at all (not even Frag grenades).
- Melee attacks always hit.
- Hardened reduces critical chance by 60% against the target.
