![]() ![]() If you take a shot, move a soldier, even reload your gun, the alien ruler will get to take an action as well. They have a special ability called "Ruler Reaction" that allows them to react after every action you take. What’s a "tick"? Well, you know how enemy soldiers always wait until you are finished taking your turn before taking theirs? Yeah, the alien rulers don’t play by those rules. ![]() Like other Vipers, he can use Tongue Pull to bind a soldier but his version has a 50% chance to knock that soldier unconscious with every tick. He has a ton of health (44 on Rookie and 69 on Legend) and some very strong abilities. He is weaker than the other alien rulers but far more powerful than an ordinary Viper. The Viper King is the first of the three alien rulers. The first alien ruler appears at the end of this mission (see Viper Vanquisher). From there, they can show up in later missions randomly but any damage you do is carried over to the next encounter. They will attempt to flee from battle after a few turns or after taking enough damage. There are only three of them but they are extremely powerful and have a much bigger health pool than anything you have seen in the main game. The mission itself isn't difficult, as most of the enemies are weak (Vipers and lesser forms of Vipers) but completing this mission allows the alien rulers to show up in your game at any time. You can scan the icon at any time (it never disappears) but you should not begin the mission until you are fully prepared. You will know this happens when a new icon appears on the Geoscape. You will gain access to the Alien Hunters DLC mission early in the main campaign. ![]() Investigate the Abandoned Research Facility ![]()
