'''Missions'''
* Council - Extract Anna Sing
* Abduction

'''Map Dimensions'''
* Length: 56 tiles
* Width: 42 tiles
* Total map area: 9408 tiles

'''Notes'''
* Anna Sing is located exactly on the opposite side of the extraction zone by the road work signs.
* There are two versions of this map, one with European elements.
* Going through the middle does not provide good cover. The bus on the right side is decent high cover and keeps your troops from getting attacked from two sides.

Foundry (EU2012)

2013-01-31T11:16:48Z

Kurzum: /* Advanced Repair */

The foundry allows for squad wide upgrades similar to the Officer Training School. Unlike the OTS, Foundry projects take time to complete.

__TOC__

==Construction==
The foundry must be constructed in the Ant Farm in order to be accessed. Cost and Time are based off 5 Engineers on Classic difficulty.
Also note that all Foundry Improvements require the continued existence of the Foundry itself to be maintained, even after they were purchased.

*Cost: 3 Power, §75
*Time: 10 days
*Maintenance: $20/month

==Future Combat Bonus==
If the XCOM base is located in Asia or by providing Asia with full satellite coverage, commanders are granted the continent bonus "Future Combat." This bonus reduces most of the resource requirements for foundry projects by 50%. However, the requirements for Weapon Fragments, Corpses, Engineers, and base items to be improved upon (ie Alien Grenade) remain static.

==Foundry Projects==
List of foundry projects.

Unlike the OTS, foundry projects take time to complete similar to research projects. Additionally, several Foundry projects benefit from various Research Credits.

===Heavy Weapons Platform (SHIV)===
*Requirements: None
*Variable Cost: §70
*Fixed Cost: 5 Engineers
*Time: 7 days
*''The 'Super Heavy Infantry Vehicle' is an unmanned combat drone that could take the place of an XCOM soldier. Once this project is completed, we can begin building S.H.I.V. units in Engineering.''

===Alien Grenades===
*Requirements: Salvaged Alien Grenade
*Variable Cost: §75, 10x Elerium, 25x Alloys,
*Fixed Cost: 1x Alien Grenade, 20x Weapon Fragments, 20 Engineers
*Time: 7 days
*Alien grenades will become available in unlimited quantity, as the standard Frag Grenades.
*''We've had a look at the intact alien grenade you recovered, and with a small investment of resources and time we believe that we can upgrade all our current frag grenades...''
**This upgrade is often fairly irrelevant. Assuming you stun-capture a Muton, Heavy Floater, and a Muton Elite, you'll get three Alien Grenades, which is more than enough for most teams.

===Improved Medkit===
*Requirements: Thin Man Autopsy
*Variable Cost: §125
*Fixed Cost: 4x Thin Man Corpse, 20x Weapon Fragment, 26 Engineers
*Time: 14 days
* Healing delivered by a single medkit charge increased from 4 to 6.
*''The flexible physiology of the Thin Men has given us new ideas for improving our Medikits. We now believe we can increase by 50% the amount of healing delivered in a single charge.''

===Improved Arc Thrower===
*Requirements: Researched Arc Thrower and Elerium
*Variable Cost: §100, 20 Elerium, 20 Alloys
*Fixed Cost: 4x Drone Wreck, 20x Weapon Fragment, 10 Engineers
*Time: 14 days
*Increase Stun success rate. Before this upgrade: 3,2,1 hp -> 70,80,90% chance. After: 6,5,4,3,2,1 hp -> 70,80,90,95,95,95% chance.
*''By increasing the power of our Arc Throwers, we should increase the successful stun rate in combat.''

===Advanced Repair===
*Requirements: Heavy Floater Autopsy
*Variable Cost: §175, 5x Elerium, 15x Alloys
*Fixed Cost: 4x Heavy Floater Corpse, 20 Engineers
*?
*Time: 7 days
*Improves repair rate of SHIVs and aircraft.
*''As our understanding of alien materials grows, we believe that we can develop processes that would reduce the repair times of our fighter craft and S.H.I.V. units significantly.''

===S.H.I.V. Laser===
*Requirements: SHIV Project, Researched Heavy Lasers
*Variable Cost: §100, 30x Alloys
*Fixed Cost: 15x Weapon Fragment, 10 Engineers
*Beam Weapon Research credit applies.
*Time: 7 days (4 days)
*Weapon Research Credit applies
*SHIV minigun replaced with laser cannon.
*''Now that we can produce high output laser weapons, we could swap out the conventional minigun our S.H.I.V. units currently use in favor of a laser cannon.''

===S.H.I.V. Plasma===
*Requirements: SHIV Project, Researched Heavy Plasma
*Variable Cost: §100, 15x Elerium, 22x Alloys
*Fixed Cost: 30x Weapon Fragments, 20x Engineers
*?
*Time: 2 days
*Weapon Research Credit applies
*SHIV minigun replaced with plasma cannon.
*''Now that we can produce heavy plasma weapons, we could adapt our S.H.I.V. units' armament with this technology and dramatically increase their firepower.''

===S.H.I.V. Repair===
*Requirements: SHIV Project, Researched Arc Thrower and EMP Cannon
*Variable Cost: §35(?), 7x Alloys
*Fixed Cost: 10x Engineers
*?
*Time: 4 days
*Allows soldiers to repair SHIV units with Arc Thrower.
*''As our understanding of alien materials grows, we believe that we can develop processes that would reduce the repair times of our fighter craft and S.H.I.V. units significantly.''

===Drone Capture===
*Requirements: Researched Arc Thrower, Drone Autopsy
*Variable Cost: §175
*Fixed Cost: 4x Drone Wreck, 20x Weapon Fragment, 10 Engineers
*Time: 7 days
* Allows Arc Thrower to capture Drones. Captured drone is controllable by the squad for the remainder of the mission (flying scout, 2 dmg weapon, repair S.H.I.V. and other drones, self-destruct). Still requires close proximity and consumes one use of an Arc Thrower.
*''We're confident that our Arc Throwers could be upgraded to allow the capture of enemy drones, giving us control of the flying drones for the remainder of the combat mission.''

===Ammo Conservation===
*Requirements: Muton Autopsy
*Variable Cost: §150, 90 Alloys
*Fixed Cost: 6x Muton Corpse, 20x Weapon Fragment, 15 Engineers
*Beam Weapon Research Credit Applies
*Time: 4 days (2 days) ; Normal+41eng=14d
*All weapons can be fired twice as many times before reloading.
*''Muton armor contains servomotors that function as automatic weapon loaders, allowing their weapons to carry more ammunition without requiring the soldier to pause for a full reload. We could apply some of the same techniques to our own weapons.''
**This is one of the single most important soldier upgrades you can buy from the Foundry, and perhaps in the game. As aliens get tougher and need more shots to put down, reloading puts you at more and more risk.

===Advanced Flight===
*Requirements: Researched Archangel Armor
*Variable Cost: §162(?), 25x Alloys
*Fixed Cost: 2x Heavy Floater Corpse, 2x Drone Wreck, 2x Cyberdisc Wreck, 25x Engineers
*Flight Research Credit applies.
*Time: 7 days
*Doubles fuel for Archangel Armor and Hover SHIV from 6 to 12.
*''We believe that we can improve the small system flight capabilities of the Archangel Armor and the Hover S.H.I.V. designs, considerably increasing their maximum flight time in combat.''

===Advanced Construction===
*Requirements: Sectopod Autopsy
*Variable Cost: §187(?), 25x Alloys
*Fixed Cost: 2x Sectopod wrecks, 20x Weapon Fragments, 30x Engineers
*?
*Time: 14 days
*Allows you to construct facilities in half time for double cost (toggled when facility is ordered, option will be named "Rush construction: ON/OFF")
*''Currently works on ANYTHING produced via engineering(even with a time of Immediate); may be bugged.''
*''The advanced fabrication processes that the aliens used to build this Sectopod could be repurposed to accelerate XCOM's vehicle and facility construction. At a significant cost, of course.''

===Improved Pistol I===
*Requirements: None
*Variable Cost: §75
*Fixed Cost: 5x Weapon Fragment, 5 Engineers
*Time: 4 days
*Weapon Research Credit applies
*Pistol Critical Chance increased by 10%.
*''One of our earliest developments in the Foundry, the Magnetic Ordnance Reduction System greatly reduces the recoil of our entire range of sidearms. Utilizing the latest in composite materials, this upgrade will significantly improve the odds of our soldiers scoring critical hits on their...''

===Improved Pistol II===
*Requirements: Researched Beam Weapons
*Variable Cost: §150 credits, 20 Alloys
*Fixed Cost: 25x Weapon Fragment, 10 Engineers
*Time: 2 days
*Weapon Research Credit applies
*Increases Pistol Aim by 10%
*''We've started testing an experimental cryogenic treatment for the barrels of our existing sidearm designs. This process will greatly reduce heat distortions caused by repeated firing, which should increase the aim of all soldiers using a pistol.''

===Improved Pistol III===
*Requirements: Researched Plasma Pistol
*Variable Cost: §250, 20x Elerium, 20x Alloys
*Fixed Cost: 50x Weapon Fragment, 20 Engineers
*Time: 4 days
*Weapon Research Credit applies
*Pistol damage increased by 1.
*''Having learned a great deal from the alien weapons recovered from the field, we think it should be possible to implement improvements across our entire range of side arms. At the very least, we can expect an increase in the maximum damage output of all of our pistols.''

===SHIV Suppression===
*Requirements: SHIV Project
*Variable Cost: §20
*Fixed Cost: 15 Engineers
*Time: (N+46) 7d
*''With a fairly extensive hardware and software upgrade, our S.H.I.V. units would be capable of suppressive fire, letting them pin enemy targets down under a hail of bullets.''

===Stealth Satellites===
*Requirements: Researched Alien Nav Computer
*Variable Cost: §150, 20 Elerium, 20 Alloys
*Fixed Cost: 3 UFO Flight Computer, 20 Engineers
*Time: 7 Days
*Makes satellites harder to detect by aliens.
*''By studying the communication signatures of the UFO nav computers we've recovered, we could update our satellite network to mimic the alien communications. This would make the satellites much harder to detect if the aliens were to go looking for them.''

===S.C.O.P.E. Upgrade===
*Requirements: Researched Weapon Fragments
*Variable Cost: §75
*Fixed Cost: 15 Weapon Fragments, 10 Engineers
*Time: 7 Days
*Beam Weapons research credit applies.
*Increase Critical Chance by 10%
*''The portable targeting module called 'S.C.O.P.E.' could be upgraded to highlight sensitive points on the enemy targets. We believe that the chance of critical shots would increase accordingly.''

Note: Weapon Fragments, Alloys, and Elerium are used to manufacture most items in the game. This is why their resale value is so low and why obtaining a precise number required for each project is so difficult - due to variances in the number of engineers, workshops, etc. Unless you are seriously strapped for cash, try selling something else instead.

Note: Weapon Fragments, Alloys, and Elerium are used to manufacture most items in the game. This is why their resale value is so low and why obtaining a precise number required for each project is so difficult - due to variances in the number of engineers, workshops, etc. Unless you are seriously strapped for cash, try selling something else instead.

Engineering (EU2012)

Kurzum: /* Workshops */

[[Image:DrShen.png|thumb|300px|right|Dr. Shen, XCOMs head of engineering.]]
''In XCOM Engineering you will manufacture items that improve your capacity to repel the alien invasion.''

== Dr. Shen ==
Dr. Raymond Shen is the Chief Engineer of the XCOM Project. Dr. Shen has proven to be an invaluable asset with his decades of experience. The XCOM project is lucky to have such a brilliant, dedicated, world renowned, award winning engineer at its disposal. Please note: This artificial intelligence was created by Dr. Shen.

== Resources ==
'' Info on resources, cost & time''
* Credits
* Elerium
* Alloys

Manufactured items such as armour, weapons or vehicles have a base § cost, as well as a minimum number of engineers without which they cannot be built. If you have extra engineers above the minimum, this provides a cost discount. The rate of discount slows down as you have more and more engineers, and never goes above 50%.

The formula for the cost of a manufactured item is:

final cost = round down [ base cost x 0.5 x (1+ (engineers required / total engineers) ) ]

Other resource cost(corpses, etc) will not be discounted. NA continental bonus gives another 50% discount to aircraft and aircraft weapons. Asia continental bonus gives another 50% discount to SHIVs.

== Workshop and Bonus ==

Cost: 3 Power, 6 Engineers, §150 and §25/month upkeep

Adds 5 engineers to the pool.
Adjacency bonus: +7% refund on resources for building (equipment, vehicles, foundry projects and facilities).
So for a 3*3 square with 9 workshops, you will get 12 * 7% = 84% discount on building stuff.
(unconfimed) there is a minimum amount left (§1, 1 Alloy, 1 Elerium), which will not be refunded. Therefore, 14 adjacent workshops is nearly the maximum with 98% [http://gaming.stackexchange.com/questions/89098/what-is-the-perfect-base-layout source].

== The Foundry ==
The Foundry is one of two places you can research equipment upgrades.

== Build Facilities ==
Non-unique facilities require more manpower as more of the same are built. This increase does not apply to the power facilities.
After researching [[Foundry (EU2012)#Advanced_Construction|Advanced Construction]] in the Foundry it is possible to build facilities in rush mode. It requires twice as much of money, Elerium and Alloys but shortens time by 50%.

They would look better if I knew how to access the files directly from the game rather than having to take a screenshot and crop in Paint. [[User:Robbx213|Robbx213]] 18:49, 5 October 2012 (EDT)

== Soldier Status ==

While several of the status for soldiers make sense, I'm curious as to "Tired" and "Exhausted". Also curious about the difference between "Wounded" and "Gravely Wounded." Originally I thought that Wounded might mean you could still send the guy out at reduced capacity (ala UFO Afterblank) and Gravely Wounded meant he was too hurt to deploy, but that's clearly not the case... [[User:Arrow Quivershaft|Arrow Quivershaft]] 13:48, 9 October 2012 (EDT)
: The "Tired" and "Exhausted" are present in the game files but it seems that it isn't used, most likely a leftover from when the first game builds used TUs/Stamina before it was replaced with the Action system. [[User:Hobbes|Hobbes]] 10:26, 16 October 2012 (EDT)
Makes sense, but recently I had a soldier who was still deployable for missions that had "(1 day)" behind her name. She'd been deployed two or three times in less than five days. Perhaps this is "Tired" or "Exhausted"? Battle fatigue from repeated, close deployments? (Noone else was affected as the first mission was mostly B-team because most of my mains were in the hospital, but the latter two were with regular soldiers.) Unfortunately, I wasn't given an opportunity to deploy her in this status, and I haven't been able to replicate it, to it may only have been a bug. [[User:Arrow Quivershaft|Arrow Quivershaft]] 14:51, 16 October 2012 (EDT)

Further research seems to imply that "Wounded" and "Gravely Wounded" are differentiated by gross damage taken during a mission, with "Wounded" meaning "Took more damage than armor HP, but less than enough to kill them" and "Gravely Wounded" means "Took enough gross damage to be killed outright." Needless to say, the latter survived somehow, likely to do either Medikit intervention or getting a critical wound instead of just dying. (Don't Die On Me is AMAZING).

== Rank bonuses ==

Are you sure about the table we have right now? I just started a new Classic game and got a Squaddie Assault (+1 HP, +6 Will, +5 Aim) and a Squaddie Heavy (+1 HP, +3 Will, +2 Aim). Three kills each on the first mission. I also just found out two equal rank units aren't the same, but maybe due to a hit in combat instead of on promotion? I have two Squaddie Snipers and they have different Will (45 vs. 42). [[User:Robbx213|Robbx213]] 18:22, 10 October 2012 (EDT)

: I rather suspect that like the original, this game has random starting stats (within an interval). Relevant data would then be: min-start, max-start & max-cap. We might have to scrap that table.
: The level-up stats might not be static either, but random or dependent on soldier actions in previous missions. --[[User:Kokkan|Kokkan]] 07:38, 11 October 2012 (EDT)
::Since the discrepancy applies only to the Will stat what I think is that the Will increase comes from the combat experience, and that should include a lot of factors, like firing, being fired at, etc. Your Assault squaddie got 1 HP, 5 Aim and 2 Will from promotion, plus 3 Will from combat experience. Your heavy only got 1 Will from combat experience. [[User:Hobbes|Hobbes]] 09:33, 11 October 2012 (EDT)

::: I also just saw a note last night in the pre-mission rotating shield that says Soldiers can permanently lose Will if they are hit (I think 'critically' hit) in combat. So probably some combination of Will gain for combat XP and Will loss for injury. We could always just leave the description generic (e.g., small Will increase) until/if we discover some kind of range or specific number from the code. It seems like there are a lot of instances in the game like this where they've built in some randomness and ranges to what happens or how the units level up. [[User:Robbx213|Robbx213]] 19:44, 12 October 2012 (EDT)

:::: I have also read that a unit that gets revived loses some will and that might be the difference between wounded and gravely wounded that was asked above. I have verified that all rookies start with the same stats with only health varying due to difficulty level, and the ranking chart seems correct for health and aim. Will must be unique in that various actions will cause you to gain/loss it as you play. I suggest we all start tracking the will numbers on our soldiers from each mission and maybe from each turn. All the factors are most likely going to be static values per event, I just hope the game doesn't deal in decimal values or figuring out these values might get tricky. [[User:Mavoc|Mavoc]] 06:11, 14 October 2012 (EDT)

::::: As I play more, I think you're right Mavoc. Will seems to be the only thing that random. Each class's health and aim does seem static, as in follows the table we have. So it seems at this point we don't know "how many" Will points are lost for a critical hit. I wonder if we lose Will permanently for being Mind Controlled, Intimidated, etc. Will have to track like you said. [[User:Robbx213|Robbx213]] 11:37, 15 October 2012 (EDT)

I just want to contribute, and point out that Iron Will bonus adds a randomised amount of Will on level up. The maximum amount of Will increase after a rank up is 12 Will, which is rare and require multiple reloads. This applies to Auto-levelled Squaddies who can get 52 Will right off the bat.--[[User:Vallen Chaos Valiant|Vallen Chaos Valiant]] 11:49, 15 October 2012 (EDT)

Just to add, after hiring and firing hundreds of squaddies, I am confident to report that the Iron Will Training School upgrade randomly increases the Will of a soldier being promoted by 2-10 on top of the default +2 increase. This is a big factor in randomising the Will of soldiers. This means a Colonel who never got revived after going critical and had full access to Iron Will, would still have maximum Will that varies between 68 and 124.--[[User:Vallen Chaos Valiant|Vallen Chaos Valiant]] 00:47, 16 October 2012 (EDT)

: this matches with my numbers of (1-5) + 2 without the Iron Will. Which seems to suggest that the level up will increase is 1d5+2 without iron will and 1d10+2 with it. i am assuming that it isn't 2d5+2 which would cause the numbers to be a bit more clustered in the middle. So far I have not seen any will increase outside of rank up. Now we need to verify that and try to identify what effects cause loss to will and how much for each. [[User:Mavoc|Mavoc]] 18:30, 16 October 2012 (EDT)

I just hit an oddity, playing on normal with all colonels I should have snipers with 8 base health and the others with 9. Except I have one support with 10 base health. I infact have 2 supports with the same gear, rank, and abilities and one has 9 health and the other has 10. Float rounding error in my favor??? [[User:Mavoc|Mavoc]] 06:47, 20 October 2012 (EDT)
:::::There is supposedly a bug that made every new soldier you recruit to have Easy difficulty Base Health. I haven't confirmed it yet.--[[User:Vallen Chaos Valiant|Vallen Chaos Valiant]] 21:00, 21 October 2012 (EDT)

== Squad Leader ==

I noticed, that one of the soldiers in the squad have a yellow star on his icon. Looks like it indicates, that he is the leader. I also noticed, that he does more dmg, than other soldiers. My leader was a sniper, and could do around 2-3 more dmg to an enemy than my other sniper. Same weapon, normal shot. I'm gonna test this further.

: The soldier in front of all others in the pre-mission screen will be the leader. From what I've read it will really affect morale if it gets killed, but so far I haven't noticed any difference in stats. Let us know what you find :) [[User:Hobbes|Hobbes]] 10:26, 16 October 2012 (EDT)

:: Hobbes this is incorrect. The far right guy for me, which stands in the back, is my sniper and he is the one that gets the star. From my experience, the system keeps giving soldiers XP even at Colonel and the soldier with he most XP gets the star. [[User:Mavoc|Mavoc]] 18:34, 16 October 2012 (EDT)

::Also, you can find a small "+" next to a soldier's icon; testing has shown that this means the soldier has earned a (main class) promotion during the mission. So far, it appears soldiers are capped to one promotion per deployment, so consider moving this soldier to backfield covering duties, as any experience they gain will be 'wasted'. [[User:Arrow Quivershaft|Arrow Quivershaft]] 14:54, 16 October 2012 (EDT)

== Soldier stats ==

So far, I've seen four basic stats for soldiers, and I think we should probably cover this somewhere. Here's a basic overview to start; what do you think?

Health: The amount of damage a soldier can take before dying. This number can be raised by wearing armor, certain items, or gaining levels. If a soldier takes more (gross) damage in a mission than provided by Armor bonuses, the soldier will have to spend some time in the hospital to recover. (For example, a soldier wearing Carapace Armor and nanofiber vest can take 6 damage a mission without being actually 'hurt'. Note that using medikits to recover damage do NOT affect whether a soldier goes to the hospital. IOW, medikit healing just keeps you on your feet in the short term.)
Aim: The chance a soldier has to hit a target. Base stat can be raised by certain items, weapons or by gaining levels.
Will: The willpower of a soldier. Affects chance of having/using psi-abilities, and of panicking in combat. Base stat can be raised by certain items, armor, or gaining levels. A soldier who is critically wounded (Gravely Wounded, in post mission status) suffers a PERMANENT reduction to Will score.
Defense: The chance a soldier has to evade an attack. Base stat is 0, can be raised by certain armors, or terrain advantages. Defense applies as a penalty to an enemy's aim against you.

Feedback encouraged.

== Error in the experience calculations on c/i ==

Just played classic/ironman. Nobody got killed during the very first mission. After the table here: http://www.ufopaedia.org/index.php?title=Soldiers_%28EU2012%29#Earning_XPs that would be 60 for mission + 20 for no KIAs amounting to 80 which would mean all 4 soldiers should have been promoted (requiring 75) . I had the feeling, that any mission with no KIA in nomral mode, always seemed to lead to rookie promotion, so there is an indication that there is a penalty on XP in classic. Can someone confirm? [[User:Kurzum|Kurzum]] 04:41, 29 January 2013 (EST)
:Human error is always an easier explanation: I just checked the link and the value for promotion to squaddie is 75, not 90. I must have made a mistake, sorry. :) [[User:Hobbes|Hobbes]] 05:21, 29 January 2013 (EST)
