Things have sure changed with version 0.14 with regards to combat. After researching the flamethrower, only the large aliens could stand up to it before. Now, no matter how overmatched the flamethrower unit is versus the alien, the alien almost always wins. Almost impossible to defeat the hives anymore. Between the queens and being unable to defeat the xenomorphs and spitters all I do is send out units to die. Send out stack of five or six units and I'm lucky if they can kill two aliens in a hive before they all die. What ever you tweeked, it really changed the balance in the game versus the aliens.

Let me know if it's still weird with 0.14.1. If it is, a description of the circumstances and a save game would be most appreciated.
