The only weapons that do not suffer from this rule are the one handed weapons ie all of the pistol type weapons, grenades, etc. > 2.

I have done this on occasion and it seemed to me that it took just as long the second time around as it did if I had not interrupted their research. ] > 3. Somebody told me there's an 80 items limit on the skyranger. Does this > affect the amount of alien equipment recovered from a mission or not ? No. You return to base with everything that survived the ground mission. Alien weapons, artifacts, corpses etc are not included in the 80 item limit. The limit exists only for your troops when you go on missions, not on what you bring back. NOTE: The same 80 item limit also exists for the Avenger as well. What a bitch this is since the Avenger carries almost double the soldiers, so you have to carry weapons platforms since you do not have enough storage space on the Avenger to reasonably equip a 26 man squad. About a month ago I requested that the remake of UFO do away with this ridiculous limit. -----== Posted via Deja News, The Leader in Internet Discussion ==----- http://www.dejanews.com/rg_mkgrp.xp Create Your Own Free Member Forum
