Available Units

You can select from a number of different human soldiers or any alien unit.

Human soldiers get to choose a class and specialization, primary weapon, secondary weapon, armor, and item(s). You don't get to choose exactly what rank and abilities you desire. Instead, there's a few options for each class type of varying ranks, point costs, and selection of abilities.
Aliens don't have any customization options, though you can choose from most aliens in the game.
- You cannot choose Sectopods, and Ethereals are so costly they can only be used in custom games with higher than normally allowed point allocations.

Point Allocations

Games normally allow you to spend 10,000 points worth of units.

Units are essentially the same as units in the normal game difficulty.
