Mind War and Base Defence

[Green Legion]

Two things but figured I'd just bundle it into one discussion instead of making two.

Firstly, what does Mind War actually do? I dunno how to figure it out as I was never given the option to autopsy or interrogate the alien responsible for it.

Secondly, Base Defence Missions still feel too passive. The aliens only push maybe once or twice, then the remainder all camp in a room somewhere refusing to leave or advance.

For reference I'm on milestone 3, non experimental.

No idea about mind war.

Base def: The aliens on mine keep attacking my spawn place.
1 stuck on the room beside spawn, that's it.

Put 2 laser turrets on your base (or better yet 3) and the aliens won't even deploy troops on the base :P

That's the point, what does mind war actually do?

Right. It happens often but there seems to be no effect.
