Never attempt to catch a grenade, it will explode even if you do grab it.

Instead try to shoot it out of their hand or in mid air.

Actually, if you're fast enough you can even throw it back at them. The grenade, that is.

Yeah try soloing zombie cave with just a brainbot and blue bombs, it's fun.

NEVER Let the AI return a delivery rocket after it has delivered your brainbot! there's a mighty good chance your brain'll get cooked.

Never Let the AI loose in Gold Digger Mode with a Harvester.

Yea, I set an actor to gold digger and gave him a digger... He dug a tunnel from 3rd floor down to the brain on the 1st floor.

A tip with use of weapons, I sometimes shoot someone's gun off if they're a browncoat, and then headshot with a RULAS from SAW mod. That works better if I face a SAW heavy in my skirmish I made

Don't fight with honor!
You can always kill an enemy in a cheap way.

Facing a dreadnought head-on is almost always suicide.

What. No. You must always fight with honor, sometimes it works very well.
One time, my brain unit was stuck at the end of a corridor, with about 11 enemy troops on the other end, he was only armed with a heavy pistol. I then decided to attack them instead of trying to get away, shot once at them, the bullet from the gun skipped directly on their helmets, took out 4 all in one shot. I then charged at them with my jetpack while I was reloading, and killed the rest of the with only minor wounds. Really, minor wounds.

EDIT: However, I must test this strategy with a dreadnought, I'll be back.

spoilers: dreadnoughts can't shoot you if you hit them from the top

Dreadnought's best friends are holes in the terrain. Big, deep holes.

That holds true for zombies as well, I dug a big hole in control chip hunt and just stood at one end and watched the zombies tumble into the pit in a desperate bid to reach me.

If your actor doesn't have a jetpack, shoot holes in walls and use them as a ladder.

Even better:
Do not give too much weaponry to any soldier. It will give him the same effect of not having a jetpack.
