Tactics / Re: Your Tactics

I am using 2.1.
I use:
-4 flames
-4 laser rifles
I find that many weapons reaction fire does not work reliably. The reason why I use flamethrowers is that the reaction fire always works[plus the alien is always toast as long as multiple reaction fire is on].
My dilemma is that I have found many weapons to have extremely unreliable reaction fire. Is this normal?
Do the SMGs have good reaction fire?
As to general tactics:
I tend to lose a man or so every mission, but flamethrowers dont need high stats, they just need a gun and ammo. I secure the area and any large firing lines with my snipers, and then the flames sweep building by building. Nice and simple and quick. Lately, I have been augmenting the flames with stun rods, but they dont have solid reactions.
