Cult of Sirius: Difference between revisions

Latest revision as of 08:14, 22 November 2023

This bizarre cult has whipped up a religious frenzy following the appearance of the Dimension Gates. The cult has long believed in redemption of the human race by a superior Alien race. They believe the UFOs and Aliens to be harmless and are rapidly gaining credibility and recruits from the general population. This represents a considerable threat to X-COM because the cultists will do anything to assist the Aliens in their purpose, whatever that might be.  From: Apocalypse Ufopaedia

-''Extra info'' :Money pit.Period.Fast and repeatedly raiding the Cult Temples at the beginning of the game can yield in massive whoop-de-doo cash income and experience and stat boosting for agents and tactical points for XCOM evaluation.

-And the morons deserve it too,never learning that if it is Alien,one must shoot it,rather than worshipping it.
-HOWEVER: raiding the cultists can leave all your agents either very dead or very injured. Just remember that your using basic weaponry at the start of the game, and cultists are using large missile launchers, plasma pistols, mini launchers, and prox mines (as general explosives).

-That is sort of a good thing, as you can get stuff before you are supposed to. i grabbed a plasma pistol on day three from these guys.
-*Consider STUN GRAPPLE raids when starting off.

-*Consider raiding the gang '''slums''' (Psyke, Diablo, Osiron) for psi-clones. Once you get the hang of layouts available, you'll only ever have to 'defend' three exit points to stop the gang-bangers from running off with your precious loot.
