One of the first games I've ever played when we got our first PC was X-COM: Apocalypse, published by Microprose. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=InUQ1TebMGk
It's been over 2 decades by now but I still fucking hate Poppers and Hyperworms. Seriously, fuck those things.
At the start of a new game I used to equip as many agents as I could with Megapol Autocannons loaded with explosive ammo. Missions inside munitions factories were incredibly entertaining, the owners (Marsec, I think?) were always really mad at me for ruining the place because a single stray shot could set the whole floor on fire, and there were a lot of stray shots because why would I take aimed shots? My guy has a handheld Gatling gun and EXPLOSIVE AMMUNITION!
Also I never actually finished the game, because after a while you can research Toxiguns, which are amazingly effective against aliens, but they don't cause explosions or incredible civilian casualties, and that's just boring. They're basically hi-tech blowguns.
I solved the problem of "one last alien" by equippling people with unlimited ammo alien guns and sawing through all of the building supports until the whole thing came down
