The Sectoids are a small, grey alien race. Every Sectoid is a perfect genetic copy but some are chosen to command the pack with deadly psionic abilities. They are augmented with cybernetic implants to support their frail physiques in combat situations. They are usually the first alien species encountered in combat by XCOM's ground forces. Within the alien army the Sectoids fill the role of scientists and abductors. You will usually find them experimenting on humans during abduction missions.
Sectoids are physically feeble. They cannot move very far and their lack of accuracy hints to their inability to handle recoil effectively. However, these little grey aliens are proficient in the use of deadly psionic powers. They use these psionic abilities to make their kinsmen more deadly in combat or even to turn your soldiers into slaves to their will. This race prefers the use of wrist mounted Plasma Pistols.
