Live Alien Research
Researching live aliens gives different results depending on their rank. It is very important to take certain aliens alive to finish the game. Picking your aliens becomes easier with the Mind Probe and Small Launcher, although a well-applied Stun Rod early in the game can give your tech tree a big boost.
- Alien Soldier
- Alien missions (harvest, base, etc)
- Alien Medic
- Species information *1
- Alien Navigator
- Alien Engineer
- UFO stats (of that UFO)
- Alien Leader
- The Martian Solution
- Any Ethereal, or Sectoid Leader/Commander
- Psionics/Psi Lab, which leads to psi-amp and mind shield
- Alien Commander
- Cydonia or Bust *2
Notes
- 1 alien medics can give information on species other than their own
- 2 commander can be found in bases, or UFOs on Base missions, however, only commander from a base can be researched (?)
