-[[Supply ship]]s en route established [[Alien Base|alien base]] may offer an extremely easy way to earn both [[elerium]] and money. Letting the right alien base live, rather then storming it, will result in a steady elerium supply ranging from 150 to 900 elerium/month, and some money.

-==Race considerations==
-Naturally you want the weakest race around, which is [[Floater]]s. [[Sectoid]]s are decent choice in early game, but later on their [[commander]]s are utilizing [[mind control]] which spoils the fun. [[Snakemen]] seem to have very good reactions. The other races are disqualified - [[Mutton]]s are far too tough, not to mention [[Ethereal]]s.

-==[[Terrain]] considerations==
-The best choices are flat and level [[Desert Terrain|desert]]s and [[Arctic Terrain|arctic]] terrain. [[Farm Terrain|Farm]]s are acceptable, though you'll have to deal with the barns and stables. [[Jungle Terrain|Jungle]]s, [[Forest Terrain|forest]]s and [[Mountain Terrain|mountain]]s are to be avoided.
-Know the different appearance of sub types of terrains. Deserts may be flat or hilly. Arctic terrain may be solid or puddly:

-Unless you have [[flying suit]]s, the puddly ice may present serious obstacles. Then again, if you do have the elerium to make flying suits it's unlikely that you're in short supply.
-In farms don't bother with barn-to-stable combat. Use plenty of rockets to level the area. Take the lower floor of barns/stables before before the 2nd level - this way you will avoid destroying precious alien bodies and equipment.
-==Grab and run vs. Kill'em all==
