Revision as of 09:38, 7 July 2014
A Medic is one of the middle tier Alien Ranks, and is not particularly commonly found even on the larger UFOs. Their role on board is presumably to support other Aliens and heal them when they get injured, in practise they do not seem to fill this task very well, if at all.
In combat a Medic is the only the equal of most other ranks in combat, with reasonable intelligence, but lowered aggression. In terms of equipment they may well be using less powerful weapons that some other ranks, but not always. They are among the easiest opponents you will run into on any given mission, although only Sectoids and Floaters bring Medics along on their missions.
They are the MOST likely of any given rank to carry Small Launchers and Stun Bombs. Later on, Medics will carry Small Launchers almost exclusively.

Captured Medics
Interrogating a captured medic will provide details of one of the 11 Alien species.
Terror From the Deep
Commanders in TFTD have similar roles and equipment to their EU equivalents. Aquatoids are the only race that deploys them, and they have almost identical stats to the Soldiers, save for higher intelligence, lower aggression, and slightly higher health and M.C. Strength.
Interrogating a Medic will reveal information about a random unknown type of Alien. However, note that getting info on, say, a Deep One corpse in this way is not the same thing as researching an actual Deep One corpse in your Lab, and will not unlock Aqua Plastics. See the Bug Avoidance Guide for more info.
