The Officer Training School, or OCS, allows you to enhance the abilities of your squad and expand the size of your unit.

Upgrades[edit]

Squad Size 1[edit]

Squad Size 1 does just as it sounds and expands upon the size of your available squad. You will now be able to take five characters into battle instead of just four. Only available after at least one of your soldiers has reached Sergeant rank.

Squad Size 2[edit]

Again, this increases the size of your squad by one, this time up to six. Requires Squad Size 1 and a soldier in the barracks of Captain rank or higher.

Rapid Recovery[edit]

Allows a soldier to heal from wounds in half the normal time.

Wet Work[edit]

Getting kills grants your soldiers extra experience

Iron Will[edit]

The Will gained from a promotion is increased, making it less and less likely that your soldiers will enter a panicked state.

New Guy[edit]

New recruits begin at the Squaddie rank and a specialist class.

Don't Die on Me[edit]

High-ranked troops are more likely to be critically wounded instead of killed during a battle.

Psionic Tests[edit]

After you construct the Psi Labs Facility, you can use the OTS to perform Psi Tests. Ten days of testing will bring the soldier off of the battlefield for a time, but return him as a Gifted, a psyonically enabled supersoldier with psychic powers.
