Among all the various targets to deploy your soldiers against to develop their skills, this particular race of aliens commanding a large craft might be the worst, since their slow movement extends the mission time and ironically makes it more difficult to seek and move them. Most of the time psionics can be used to get the upper hand, but in this case, there are nuances that may need to be worked out.

0:06 One can get a feel of how many alien bases there are
2:26 A UFO that's also going to answer our question about a base; should we rest more of our vets?
7:36 The squad is set, taking care of armor and equipment
10:13 To the landing site! One soldier doesn't want anything to do with fighting
13:52 Turn 1, hover tanks have no problem scaling rather unruly terrain
16:20 100 Psi strength, but still ways to go
20:18 Are we ready to bring out the big guns?
24:06 Entering the UFO, can we get the chain of control going? And make sure to check the engine room!
30:14 We get a foothold on the second and third level, with soldiers in close watch; some fortuitous encounters for us
36:44 Surveying the blast on the third level, how did enemy evade it all? Target practice starts
40:35 Slow moving aliens, to get them anywhere is exercise in directing traffic jam
44:03 The soldiers clamber out to greet the aliens at last
49:07 Enemy accounted and unaccounted for
51:00 Was it worth the effort?
53:07 Thankfully money doesn't occupy space in storage rooms; Most of the Earth is under Hyperwave eye
56:44 Tracking possible alien terror, getting prepared at Petunia base
58:42 On to another mission

1:02:30 Into the Laboratory, let's look at some of the physics available in X-Com
1:06:59 More attempts to demonstrate gravity, this time against an alien
1:08:12 The flammability of alien and its armor
1:10:06 Does gravity affect other inanimate objects?
1:12:40 Observing spread of fire and smoke
