** The first mission of the ''Slingshot'' [=DLC=] has you escort and extract Shaojie Zhang, a member of the Triads who wants to defect and is carrying some vital intel with him. Bradford will warn you that both the aliens and Zhang's former superiors will want to come after him at the start of the mission, but human enemies wouldn't get introduced until ''Enemy Within'', meaning all you face are the aliens. Zhang becomes a permanent member of XCOM if the mission is successful, but the remaining two ''Slingshot'' missions deal with the threat of an alien battleship, while the Triads never get mentioned again.
