There is a time limit. By the way, it's Meld.
Fair enough, It's my fault for poorly formulating my question. How long is the time limit?

Time limit is hidden, but you get a warning when it's about to expire.

So, can any of you experts tell me if there's a time limit on these malt canisters?

Hit: 65-30=35*0.7=24. Roll: 53. Miss!
What's the deal here? Is it because of flying?

Also, I'm starting to think I should have swapped armor plates out for a grenade...

You sure you want to shoot instead of falling back into an overwatch trap?  There's two viable pieces of cover where you're shooting from and four of them.  Don't expect me to be much help; I'm begging to be flanked.

Edit:  Plus, moving up to that other box can reveal more aliens.

I'm really thinking I should wait out of range of the fire since I have no cover all down that road from what I see.

Back in Arma  Czrnobyla you would be shot for cowardice right now. Plus aliens reveal themselves when they want, you don't have to stumble on them like in Vanilla (I never played EW, Long War, but I'm guessing same?)

Yes, and
Can someone (looking it up, it would seem like only Julio can do this) with a grenade throw one at them first? I'd much rather shoot whoever is left.

That'd require moving to N18, an action I consider suicidal.  I suppose, though, if both drones are killed (keep in mind you've got a 35% shot against them; hardly guaranteed) then that would be a safe spot; the sectoids can't move to flank that spot without being equally flanked.  That's a move the PC AI wouldn't make, though it's possible here on the forum they would.  Still, if a drone survives, Julio is a dead man.
