Is your strategy against raids (especially sappers) retreating to the secondary wall and waiting for them? Id imagine a lot of collateral damage that way, or do you just send that pack of panteras and they slaughter everyone?
Pretty much. We had a lot of powerful psycaster women, so berserk pulse featured heavily, with the men taking out the enemies at range while they fought each other. At this point in the game we did not use the cougars much for combat, but they had been important earlier on.
Non-sapper/breach raids had to walk around to the north to get within the first wall, then all around the perimeter between the walls before entering the base, by which time they were very spread out. Sometimes we'd ambush them when they were half-way round between the walls.
