The crash-recovery battlescape shows the orange UFO has lightly impacted the ground and slid westwards into a large hill. The trench is very narrow for such an immense craft. Access into the UFO is possible by a single double-height, two-wide door located underground within a sewer pipe network, whereas access to the pipe network is via two tunnels with entrances along the grassy slopes: north-middle area and south-east area.
Unconventional access for flying agents is possible via the broken window on the west-middle edge of the UFO (see insert, top-right of overhead battlescape image).
Battlescape Combat
The crash recovery battlescape is nine levels high.
The Battleship has translucent windows.
The door entry area of the UFO is a small cylindrical room with the grav-lift in the center. Aliens directly above, from multiple levels, may throw or drop explosives and due to the limited entry space, may result in heavy X-Com casualties. The central grav-lift allows access to all levels within the UFO but also allows easy ambush from all directions for any agent moving upwards.
Research
A succesfully recovered Battleship allows progress towards the best hybrid X-Com craft and will also provide weapons, devices, and sub-systems for further research or to sell.
