Bandit Chase and rideable horses

The official announcement connects the horse addition to the Bandit Chase entry. It does not explain where to find a horse, how to mount it, or whether keeping one requires completing the chase. Do not treat a horse as a guaranteed event reward.

Are UFO Attack and Mothership Spawn the same event?

They are separate entries in the official list. There is no published connection in that description establishing that one triggers the other. Mothership Spawn is not identified there as a boss fight, so this page does not assign it boss health, a kill objective or boss drops.

What should you do if a UFO lifts you?

GameStratWiki reports that a UFO can lift a player and drain health; it advises shooting the UFO to be released. This is a reported response, not an escape method we have tested. Weapon requirements and damage thresholds remain unverified.

What happens during Mothership Spawn?

GameStratWiki describes a Mothership passing above the bus. That account does not establish a boarding route, combat objective or reward. We cannot turn this sighting into instructions to enter or defeat it.

When do random events happen?

No interval, route checkpoint or probability is stated. The announcement also does not say whether all six events can occur in both Normal and Nightmare Mode. Their position beside the Nightmare section does not establish a mode restriction.

Do random events award Tickets or Alien Tokens?

The event list promises no fixed currency payout. Separately, Update 2 confirms Alien Token offers in the Vault; that does not establish a reward for each UFO or Mothership encounter. Check an actual reward or offer before counting it toward a purchase.
