Much better to just not have your main squad die, it's not that hard if you don't take silly risks and have built them right. Once you get them in some decent armour and weapons and have a fair build, your soldiers will live unless you do something stupidOr the game bullshits on you by marching two Sectopods and their accompanying drones, Three Heavy Floaters, A mechtoid and his Acompanying Sectoid Commander on you at onceFuck you Xcom -.-

In a 30 hour campaign, count on XCOM bullshit happening, especially on Ironmode.

It's part of why you want 12-18 well trained soldiers rather than just one main squad, partly cause soldiers can die, partly because of xcom bullshit, and partly because of wound timers.

Make this 24-30 soldiers if using the Long War mod.
