Tech required to detain Aliens?

[BDG Jah Wibble]

Try as I might I can't find which tech is needed to put the buggers behind bars, if only so that I can have a decent chance of assassinating them. Anyone know?

Faction objections tell you the tech you need to eventually build the containment facility but in order to actually catch the bastards you need a counciller with 25 in investigation and a good bit of luck.

Also remember to investigate the alien fully (to show its loyalty) before your attempt. Good luck heh.

Thanks, yeah - according to my objectives it looks like I have to assassinate one to get the mission about making a containment facility. Have got a fully investigated target in Chicago but even with 23% assassinate chance I keep getting critical failure and having my best operative die :/

I think if you have another operative protect the operative doing the assassinating, they won't die.

Yeah, that works.

also, be sure you're ready to deal with increased alien attention after you kill one.

Like having them destroy all your Jovian installations you were happy about. The aliens dont ♥♥♥♥ around. Save scum a bit isnt for everybody but it helps lol.

Doing the assassination mission very early helps I think, get it done before you even have an alien alert meter and there's no retaliation
