For Axiom: Use adrenalin rush more. It makes it so Smash does not end the turn, neither does psych up. You can have him punch alot more.

Also, to unlock the two person assembly you need level three tech field teams.

Also, you could've used Dragnet instead of Quarantine on Riverside; it would have prevented Unrest from rising and also given you about half of the reward that was listed.

This sounds bad, until you realize like Grace said you are blessed with both of these facts being true at the same time.

A fact quickly reinforced in the first mission.

Patchwork and Zephyr are both agents doomed to absolutely carry the squad in the environment they thrive, and then end up on permanent assembly/spec ops duty once the game moves on.

TBF, the category we're talking about is "people who can melt your brain in the middle of a crowded subway car without any bystanders noticing", which puts it a touch closer to being a legitimate police matter than having the wrong politics.

Yes, but the game also mentions "dampeners" which psionics wear and which, presumably, make it so that anything bad and psi-related can't be an accident but must be deliberate. This is akin to a gun control issue: there are plenty of responsible gun owners who have a good reason to own a gun, and then there are those who go around doing crimes with it. Only in this case the "gun" is someone's literal brain, while you can choose to not buy a gun you can't choose to not be a psionic.


e. Whooooops I made this reply before the game mentioned the dampeners are painful so that's egg on my face! Still, the point stands that you cannot discriminate an entire section of people (psionics, in this case) because of something they might do. There is, presumably, a law that says "do not use your psi powers on unwilling people," so. Yes, criminals don't respect laws, but then it's a case of "might as well not pass any laws ever then."
