			: Same as with poppers, brainsuckers are neutralised somewhat by RT mode. They're still something of a threat to lone agents, but pretty much ''anything else'' is more likely to do you in then they are if you're playing that way.

			: I guess you could say that, since it's a starting weapon for the aliens, this gives some indication as to which mode the devs were expecting people to use. Brainsuckers may've been less of a threat in TB otherwise. - <span style="font-size:xx-small"> [[User:Bomb_Bloke\|Bomb Bloke]] ([[User_talk:Bomb_Bloke\|Talk]]/[[Special:Contributions/Bomb_Bloke\|Contribs]])</span> 06:29, 1 December 2012 (EST)

	Just busted apocalypse out again. In what universe is this the weakest weapon of the aliens? In TB I find it crazy powerful, since the aliens only have to throw a brainsucker pod somewhere within 10 squares of an agent and he's dead. Reaction fire is little defense since the hatched brainsuckers go last so you're likely to blow all your TUs on other aliens, then the brainsucker waltzes up unopposed. I find the game gets a lot easier when you don't see this weapon any more. [[User:Binkyuk\|Binkyuk]] 15:48, 30 November 2012 (EST)		Just busted apocalypse out again.

			Anyone tried to use them when raiding, to brain-suck enemy forces making them oppose each other?
