General Information
The aliens need humans for slaves, mutation, and genetic material. To this end, the aliens created the Thermal Shok Launcher. Firing a thermal bomb that radiates a powerful blast of cold, it is extremely effective against humans, able to reliably allow capture in a single shot by inducing severe hypothermia and a low-energy state in the target as the body reflexively attempts to survive.
Fortunately for us, it works just as well on them.
The Thermal Shok Launcher is a rather good replacement for the Thermal Tazer. Surpassing it in power, it's also much safer to stun someone with a ranged weapon rather than poke them with a stick. As damage is quadrupled on Large(2x2) units, it works quite well as a Terror unit-buster. It also has an impressive accuracy in both modes, making snapshots from this weapon still fairly accurate. A soldier armed with a Thermal Shok Launcher in each hand can fire both in one turn, provided he does nothing else; this combo can often drop even the toughest aliens you'll encounter.
This weapon appears in Terror from the Deep. For the UFO: Enemy Unknown equivalent, refer to the Small Launcher.
