So I've decided to challenge myself (should have known better), and have started a game on INSANE difficulty, with all the newer features turned on.

How in the world is it even remotely possible? I'm having a hard time believing even the best player can survive it. Even using cheats I'm barely able to scrape out a toehold in the game.

I set it up so that I have 7 IMP mercs with 99 in every stat. Even with that advantage, I'm getting destroyed. I have no idea how someone who isn't cheating stands a chance. I get overwhelmed by huge groups of enemies (routinely 20+ in numbers). Even with my best weapon I often miss easy shots. On the other hand, the enemy soldiers seem to casually point their weapons in my general direction and inflict devastating wounds with snapshots.

I just don't get it... how is it possible? Any tips to survive?

7? Thats enough for one squad. Use 2-3x times that for combat troops.

Also, enemies get a 50% bonus to accuracy...i always invert that to -50 so it's more like zerg rushes happy

Use Night Ops. I started with 6 IMP mercs, all with Night Ops. Also, use hit and run tactics - stay at the map edge, kill a bunch of the baddies, then withdraw to a safe sector. Wash, rinse, repeat.
