	Heavy Floaters are hulking monsters, with a ton of health and a powerful degree of firepower to match. Flank attacks from these hovering horrors usually end in a tough fight and a lot of corpses. If these corpses turn out to belong to the Aliens or XCOM soldiers is up to the XCOM Commander and a little bit of luck.

	While ordinary [[Floater (EU2012)\|Floaters]] may seem dumb or reckless and are easily dealt with, these larger counterparts are smarter, tougher to kill and will coordinate their attacks better against your soldiers. At higher [[Difficulty (EU2012)\|difficulty]] levels these aliens are ~~literally~~ addicted to using [[Alien Grenade (EU2012)\|alien grenades]] to blow up your soldiers' cover. And if your units are behind indestructible cover they'll just keep lobbying grenades, so be aware.
