Yeah I just did that too... sent a squad out of the ranger first and
blanketed a semi-circle around the ranger with proxy grenades. Then I
sent all my people in one direction, toward the UFO lol

Indeed. But the rocket launcher isnt very cost-effective in terms of
lighting up. Autocannons with incendiary do a great job.
