Re: Wich are the uses for each corpse?

I am not aware of such a list, but you can check the tech tree, I guess. Also, the ufopedia shows what you need to build each item.

Officer Leadership Bonus questions

Leadership: This officer provides bonuses to will, dodge and infiltration to soldiers who have previously served under his or her command. These bonuses scale up the more missions they go on together. How big is that bonus? Can I see it somewhere? Does it, in your experience, justify putting a lot o...

Re: PSA use assaults for stealth missions you can't lose.

Did I get this right? beginning of turn objective in reach of 1 blue move. popp r&g, popp command first action, go next to objective (move) 2nd action, knock out vip/hack (non-move) pick up vip is a free action, correct? 3rd action run away with double move? I think this is not how run&gun s...

Re: Early missions with short timers, a failing strategy

Wait, that basically means, I can't avoid exploiting this bug, unless I take people with the same rank each mission, correct?

Re: Is roust bugged or I had rolled a 0.000000001 probability?

It has a really long range, very low damage, and a very low chance to set enemies on fire. In practice I mostly end up using Roust to trigger Burnout and finish off enemies on 1 HP. The forced move often hurts as much as it helps since the enemies are free to move to a better position. I'm unsure a...

Re: Where is the fun on the geoscape?

I think this results from the weakest point of the mod, how information about the mechanics is presented. You have to do some serious digging and reading to know how the mechanics work. Then it becomes fun, at least for me. I want to be able to manipulate advent strength in a region, the missions I ...

Re: How are people liberating regions so fast?

I've had bad luck most of the time too. SUPER tight patrol routes (Bonus points if there's 3 pods patrolling an area in one big chain) or setups where you have no choice but to break stealth (One side has only glass with no doors, the other side has a pod that's trapped in a doorless building), etc...

Re: How are people liberating regions so fast?

Well, to me it sounds, the getting spotted part was the important thing. IMO you need to open up by hacking. No reinforcements and you have 2 full turns to kill them, without cover or the need to be careful. I've been following this thread with a certain amount of bemusement. I've done I think thre...

Yeah, the whole advisor thing needs a QOL update. But AFAIK there is something planned for 1.3

Re: Is roust bugged or I had rolled a 0.000000001 probability?

I think, Xwynns complained about roust too, in his videos. Since he is like the master beta tester, I am sure they will look into it. Out fo experience though, usually when I feel cheated by RNG, I realize later, it was actually legit. Don't trust your memory. How about, you make a save, bevore ever...

Re: How are people liberating regions so fast?

Did a bunch of stealth missions last night on my second run. Got a good head start so far. No casualties yet. In fact, I'm really enjoying Shinobi/Specialist for those hacking missions. I immediately bought a scientist and an engineer from the Black Market, I have the AWC imminent (3 days), and I j...

Re: How are people liberating regions so fast?

... The problem to me is not the mission, the question is, how do you reach the tower mision with trength 3? If it is a secondary region we could pick one with strenth 1 and choose only liberation missions but in the first region on early we need do a lot of missions appart liberation, so I don't k...

Re: How are people liberating regions so fast?

Hmm, I only just did my first Network tower and it was a piece of cake. With standard guns, not even laser. Strength 3. Difficulty Veteran. How did you approach the mission? Here is what I did and propose: Take 1 stealth shinobi, a technical and basically whatever you like. I took a gunner, a ranger...

Re: Camera Stuck Under The Avenger

I have the same problem. I am happy to provide information, savegames etc. I am clueless about coding etc. though. I would need detailled instructions on what to present. So far: I had 0 problems with Vanilla Xcom2, even with mods. I started LW2 with several mods, and got this bug in about 2 out of ...
