Our research is progressing nicely and in time, both the secrets of psionics and how to construct new aircraft will be ours. We need to get an alien commander to interrogate but I’m not quite ready for that yet and while that means leaving the alien base where it is, we’re easily countering any positive the aliens are accruing from that by shooting down every UFO we see. We wouldn’t be able to do this without the hyperwave decoder, one of the most important things to research in my opinion. Since we’ve had those we’ve had a much easier time of things, as the aliens can’t gain score if we stop their missions before they can land.

It’s a good situation to be in but we can’t rest on our laurels. We still can’t take on battleships and we’re missing important research that’d help us out, but the latter is becoming an increasingly shorter list. We still have plenty of things we can research but a lot of it is minor in impact at this point, which is why I’m focusing on more essential topics. Once we’ve done all of them, I might scale back the number of scientists I have and replace them with soldiers or engineers, but we’re still a ways off that choice. For now, X-COM continue to protect Earth from the aliens while we inch ever closer to figuring out the more advanced pieces of research.
