Revision as of 13:45, 2 October 2012
Soldiers are your most important and valuable unit in Enemy Unknown 2012 and their death on the battlefield is permanent. Soldiers have distinct classes and their status can be checked at XCOM HQ's Barracks facility, where you can also hire new soldiers. They can be equipped with armor, weapons and other equipment as required and available at the Armory. Soldiers may also be assigned to the Officer Training School in order to progress in rank and gain specific squad abilities.
You may increase your combat troops through the following
- By hiring them through the Barracks facilities.
- By receiving soldiers of specific rank/class through the completion of specific combat missions. You get to select how they skill up.
- Finally there are also 'XCOM heroes' - those are beefed up soldiers you can unlock as an Easter Egg.
