Notes
- Starting Location
- Notable Locations
- This mission will be given in the month after rescuing Zhang (if Friends in Low Places is successfuly completed in the first month, it will be in the second).
- To complete the mission, all that is required is to place the 4 transmitters, and get 1 soldier into the conductor's cabin at the front of the train: aliens can still be onscreen, and will dissapear once a soldier is in the hilighted area. You can take advantage of this by having your trooper with the highest move be ready to make a dash for it before placing the last transmitter.
- Thin Men will be in pre-seeded locations (as well as drop-spawns), while Mutons will teleport in on a beam of light (possibly refrencing the opening animation of the 1994 game), and immediatley go into Overwatch. Capturing/interrogating one can thus get you an early lead on Plasma Weapons research.
- The Mutons will most often teleport in within line-of-sight, but if you manage to make forward progress without triggering their overwatch, and get out of sight, they seem not to give chase.
- This mission has a 10 round limit (7 for the acheivement), and placing a transmitter does NOT increase the limit.
- Thusly: just running, and Hunkering or Overwatching, may be the best option instead of standing and fighting. Either way, be careful to not let soldiers get flanked from either side.
