The ADVENT General is the commander of all ADVENT legions in a region. Their importance to ADVENT's chain of command keeps them from being seen in the front lines, only being encountered when XCOM brings the fight to an ADVENT regional HQ.
Tactically, ADVENT Generals boast massive health pools and thick armor, as well as deadly aim and damage values, but posses no special combat abilities, instead having perks that enhance other ADVENT units nearby, which will always be put to good use, as Generals are always accompanied by a large squad of both ADVENT infantry and mechanical units. The Generals' units alone are reason enough to train and bring rocket-specialized Technicals to HQ raids.
ADVENT Generals are distinguishable from regular ADVENT Officers by their lack of a helmet.

Tips
- Like most flankable units, they will ideally try to find reasonable cover whenever flanked. This can be taken advantage of if you want to force enemies to move. For officers in particular, they tend to mark targets when they have allies so this can be taken advantage of by forcing them to move while also not making other actions more incentivizing such as becoming flanked yourself in order to have them mark and not take a turn to fire. The best way to take advantage of this is to also disable their allies such that they are unable to utilize the mark and thus effectively gaining a turn to clear the engagement.
- Like most units with AOE moves, you ideally want to spread your soldiers out in order to greatly dissuade them from ever using them.
- The General not only grants bonuses to nearby allies but they are also a massive threat themselves. It is best to try and disable the General in order to allow room to defeat their allies first as the General themselves are also very durable. Attempting to isolate them can also be helpful but this may bring issues on its own if you get caught off guard.
