Are sectopod reinforcements intended and if so, even on a 100%+ infil gop? Seems thematically broken as well as the reinforcement ship is smaller then a sectopod itself.

You're the 2nd person I've seen complain of this. Do you have a save file from before it happened?

IIRC the Sectopod folds up and is latched to the bottom of the dropship.

That sounds hilarious and terrifying. Air-dropped heavy automated mechanized weapon platforms... good god. :shock:

It also happened to me.

First pod drop and I got a Sectopod. I used autosave and saved before the pod dropped. It seems pretty consistent (always dropping the Sectopod). If this is considered a bug I can pass the save.

Luckily it dropped on the turn the evac dropped. Otherwise, I am pretty sure a Sectopod + other stuff in the middle of my squad would be pretty devastating.
