Re: Who's your favourite alien?

My favourite used to be the Chryssalids, but now it's a toss-up between the Floater and Snakeman... I just think they both look cool :(

Out of the terror agents though, I like the Silacoid because its appearance is very deceiving, and the Celatid because of its cool acid spit ;)

So, really, I can't pick... It's one of those 4 :)

And to top it off the Cyberdisks can fly, making them very dangerous.

Y'know, I don't think I've ever seen a Cyberdisc ever leave the ground level ;)

You've just been lucky, then. You can't even hope to hit someone else by accident if you're shooting up at a disk. And you don't catch as many sectoids in the explosion. See my post in the "ouch my butt hurts" thread for an encounter at a sectoid base.

Floater. For several reasons. They're good enough to provide a challenge when they appear fairly early on, and they're not too bad later in the game. They're soft, but half-decent shots. Plus, they can fly, and sometimes manage the odd surprise.
