That's not a bad idea, changing their name. It could be just a suffix added to the existing name, like -A, -B, etc which is ties to a particular officer (say, the first initial of their nickname?). Thanks, I'll give it a try.

I know there is a list that you get with the button on the officer's display, what I was looking for was something that graphically displayed which soldiers in the Soldier View list had served under which officer. Something to make it easier to determine who to pick when making up a squad.

I looked through the Workshop and didn't see this, so I'm asking here. Is there a mod that makes it easy to see which soldier served under which officer? I know that if I look at each officer I can see a list of who served under him/her, but it's not easy to use to set up squads once you have jumble...

Oh, so it's really the reverse where I would see an effect; if I didn't fight the retaliation my operations would be hindered. Great, thanks!

I just finished a Retaliation mission which said that the reward was "Unhindered Operations". What's that mean in game terms? Thanks!

Thank you!

If I might be so bold, I would suggest that might be helpful if you qualify the "Warning: There are SPOILERS below" statement here and in other places. Someone who doesn't want anything spoiled would pass up this article, but so too might someone who never reads it because he thinks it mig...

Hello, I hope I am doing this right :roll: I posed the question over on the regular LW2 forum, if there was a mod that would allow me to sort the soldier list by nickname. I didn't get any responses, I'm assuming there isn't one. I looked in the Steam Workshop and didn't see one either. In my last c...

I thought this is no longer true. I've disabled mods and the save game still loads, just with a warning.

I think this is the concept that I wasn't grasping myself. So that milestone "Monthly Supply Drop" in the queue now just gives a summary?

Thanks, the info is a big help!

I've read a lot of suggestions on how and why to adjust the jobs of the resistance members during the campaign, but I'm a little baffled for what to do at the very beginning when I have just one haven and I'm just starting out. I know the logic of setting all of them to Intel to gain the best infilt...

It takes like an hour to upload to the Nexus. It's at 46%, but I gotta run to the store and will make it live after I get back, assuming it's all in before we have to go down to Denver for lunch and the Star Wars costumes exhibit. Where are you guys based? I used to live in Colorado Springs and wor...

Hmm, good question. I played a lot of vanilla XCOM 2 before LW2, but I'd have to say that LW2 can stand on it's own. You are going to have to learn a lot of tactics, tricks, etc, to get good at LW2 but frankly I'm having to unlearn stuff I picked up in vanilla that works different in LW2. So I'd say...

The path to my config folder is different than yours, mine is C:\Users\[user name]\Documents\My Games\XCOM2\XComGame\Config

I had to go to the folder "My Games" to get to the XCOM2 folder. Just FYI. Maybe it's a Windows 7 thing.

Is there some way to get a list of mods currently active via some ini or config file? I was trying to see if there is an easier way than taking screenshots of the starting mods menu and doing cut and paste or copying them over to a scratch pad. I want to do this so I can post to my local forum what ...

I now have lots of soldiers and I don't really remember them by last name, I remember them by their nicknames. Is there some way to change the soldier "Name" column to sort by nickname? Is there a mod (I looked, but no joy)? Should I request a mod?

Thanks, that will be good info when I start a new campaign after the 1.1 update release.

This might have been discussed before but I missed it. I'm deep in an LW2 campaign and woefully short of supplies after building the Proving Grounds after AWC, GTS and Workshop plus a Power Relay. And now I'm thinking maybe I didn't need to be in such a hurry to get to the Proving Grounds, I only ha...

Thanks, it's a bit of knowledge to keep in my back pocket. I have noticed the difference in the types of aliens I've met at AS4 versus AS2. Strength Two doesn't scare me as much

I attacked an Advent column and the Advent Strength in my region went from 4 to 2. I'm just wondering if that is a halving of the previous value or just a -2 effect. The question becomes more pertinent when talking about Advent Strengths of 6 or 7. Thanks!

What mod is that? I'm always on the lookout for a good UI mod

A Shinobi but fore purely narrative lore reasons lol. Ranger would be my typical choice though, or medic. My Shinobi don't last long enough to be considered for officer training. I just had a mission to destroy a relay. Enemy force was too tough so I ended up sending the Shinobi on a forlorn hope r...

#2 is faceless missions are GOOD for you. Not only do they combat the curse of the faceless thieves, but the mission itself rewards you corpses and loot and is pretty darn easy even as time goes on. Combat curse + gain loot? Why the hell not. Just for folks who haven't experienced it, in my "f...
