Flamethrower is so good
I just found out how incredibly powerful the flamethrower is.

It just trivialized a pretty hard boss encounter because boss mobs and xeno's won't travel through it.

On mission 5 at the end I used it to block two paths which forced the boss to walk around slowly and not charge my units. It made it so the boss and all enemy mobs would walk around a path and once they got near one path I just closed it off with the flame thrower.

I used to think the flamethrower would just do a lot of damage which is why I used it directly on enemy units but not targeting them with it and just using it to block ways off will stop them dead in their tracks. It's insane!

I prefer mines. A LOT of mines. They use CP and you can take your time just setting up a kill zone where a boss will be. Nothing quite as satisfying as seeing a Queen trip over a gaggle of your mines and get blown down below half life in just a few seconds.

In case you didn't know, you can drag the fire target zone to burn a larger area. Took me far too long to realise.
