Fuckin' hell mate, Elders were just trying to develop a cure for themselves.
I'd do the same if I was in their shoes desu.
We all fucking would.
>implying you wouldn't wipe out a planet of worthless imbeciles to develop a cure for disease that's wiping you, far more developed species, out

Why didnt they just covertly kidnap thousands for genetic experimentation?

when they started losing why not retreat its not like the rebels had the resources to chase you, take millions of the humans and fuck off.

That's exactly what they've been doing

It's superaids, you don't know how many more humans you will need, millions might not be enough

>Start new expansion.
>First mission goes off with only one soldier dead, classic difficulty.
>Next 25 or so missions have no issue, except for Elena getting murdered because using the objective with her in stealth both reveals her and ends her turn, getting her tag teamed by MECs.
>Finally reveal the chosen base, go in.
>Fighting a group of Crysalids, situation mostly under control.
>Ranger misses a 96% shot, no biggie, still got tons of other guys.
>Blows a hole in a wall.
>Reveals three mutons and a berserker.
>Grenades fly all over my guys like it's fucking Dresden.
>Mutons walk up and stab everyone to death without taking any casualties.

So I don't get to attempt the chosen's mission again and just have to deal with her bullshit from now on? What did I do to deserve this?

Human conflict has always been Us and Them

There's no greater Them than something that isn't Human

why didn't they just make a deal or whatever. You can't tell me china or other nations wouldn't disappear a bunch of people for space age tech.

Okay, being an advanced alien species does not make you God. It has never made you a god. That's such a lazy story convention.
