Bounties (LWR)
In General
When killing aliens there are four resources you may acquire:
- Experience
- Corpses (only if not damaged by an explosive on or after death)
- Weapon Fragments
- Bounties
Bounties
All alien types (except Zombies) have an associated bounty (see: Aliens). Cyberdiscs, Mechtoids, Sectoid Commanders, Muton Elites, Sectopods, and Ethereals have large bounties and you'll see their bounties display in a popup when you kill them in the tactical game.
Bounties are modified by Campaign Length, so you can expect higher bounties if you enabled Not So Long War and lower bounties if you enabled Very Long War.
