Can you reject Slingshot DLC mission first month and choose it next month

xcom-enemy-unknown

Slingshot DLC first mission is a bit hard for first month on Classic.

Chryssalid and huge amount of Thin Men with 100% hit poison

So on the screen with options Slingshot/Normal mission(random) I said normal expecting this question to appear next month again.

But it didn't. So should I start from the start to have Slingshot or these missions will appear at random again?

This information is so hard to come by so I'm posting here in response. The first quest comes very early in the game. I rejected the quest, and it never came back even after my whole squad is on end game armor.

Started another game, and this time I accepted and finished the first mission. And then for the 2nd and 3rd quest, these come ridiculously early as well and you probably won't beat it with your newbie squad with stick weapons, so skip them and do it later. The council SPAMS you with the quest, but there's no penalty whatsoever for not completing the quest when it shows up.

In short, don't skip the first mission, the following ones can be skipped.
