Never in a game have civilians becomes so utterly determined to get themselves killed than in that game lol I have vague memories of one level, where the NPC's i had to protect had gotten themselves killed (AGAIN) and i circumvented it by actually 'Persuading' the entire civilian population on the map, and moved them out of the bloody way with one of my agents, and then send the others in to get the job done... Took me bloody ages :p
