Alien Artifacts (LWR)

Back To Main Page

In General

An Alien Artifact is anything that your soldiers acquire from tactical missions.

Most artifacts can be sold on the Gray Market. It is often a difficult choice for the player who will have to consider the benefits of selling these resources for quick cash versus the possibility of their multitude of uses.
