- Next comes the arming sequence. A total amount of cash is shown,
and you can either accept the default weapons (use the ``Next Unit"
icon, which looks like a tick, to see each unit's weapons) or choose
to buy your own. To keep the defaults, click the ``Quit" icon; to buy
weapons, click either of the two ``Buy" buttons.
- The squad's default weapons are usually round about what you could
buy at the Medium level of difficulty. The amount of cash you get at
each level is as follows:
Easy |
— |
250 per unit |
Medium |
— |
200 per unit |
Hard |
— |
175 per unit |
- If you do buy new weapons, the first button is ``Buy Weapon", the next
is ``Buy Ammo", the two arrow icons let you see the weapons and the
``Next Unit" button is used when you've finished arming that unit. You
can always go back to it, until you quit the arming.
- The cash shown is a total for your whole squad, try to divide weapons
fairly equally. It's always better to have, say, four men with Pulse
rifles rather than one man with a Plasma Cannon and tons of ammo.
- If you buy something, then decide you don't want it, you can sell it
back at no loss by clicking on the object's name in the inventory.
- Click on the Quit button (bottom right) when you've finished.
