Re: Incoming Officer Skill

Too close to one another, not the MEC. But the ability is basically 'stun every MEC for one turn' as a free action. they always go for the missiles if they can hit like 2 targets, the missiles do no environmental damage so there's no risk of cover destruction, and the game throws enough MECs at you ...

Re: Suggestion: Allow Sharpshooters to equip rifles (SMGs)

(I assume it's probably possible to limit DfA to once per turn, but that's in the realm of 'actual effort' compared to just enabling extra weapons in the config file, so I'm not sure they'd be interested in dedicating the time to it.) It is actually possible to trigger DfA twice with Command giving...

Re: Intel packages do not reward scan sites

Well, I'm doing pretty ok tactically so if I can get a facility lead to one of the at least 2 facilites I know of in contacted regions that could be enough to tide me over until forge/gate, as I can probably live on coil and warden and dedicate my scientists to the shadow chamber. But not if I'm not...

Re: Intel packages do not reward scan sites

Three in a row now. Whatever it is, it's pretty consistent. Probably can't continue this campaign until it's fixed, at 3 pips left it might already be too late to find a facility lead, let alone when I have to risk troops and intel on doing baseline moderate+ hacking missions in stength 10 regions t...

Re: Balance of Double Tap (Sharpshooter)

My issue with double tap is that gunners, rangers, and at close range assaults are already all really good at putting lots of damage on a single target. Whereas serial offers something fairly unique -- a multitarget ability without any proximity requirements, the target area is the entire map. Espec...

Re: Why I stopped LW2 - but thanks for everything

I might lose my current game because I can't find any facility leads, but I got to fairly stable situation midgame with 2 regions liberated at ~10 avatar pips without ever doing a stealth guerilla op, on commander ironman. I've been sending in at least 5 people on them and killed pods as encountered...

Re: Intel packages do not reward scan sites

I have now completed 2 Intel Package reward missions in a row that did not reward anything but the base intel. As I really need a facility lead very soon, this is a campaign killing bug atm.

I do not have any of the dlc.

Re: Network Towers - What are you doing Right? What am I doing wrong?

Commander ironman, 2 towers so far with assault, technical, grenadier, ranger and gunner. The first in july, the second in august. 200% infiltration gave me light activity at advent strength 6, then just ran through one side of the map killing everything until the console was in run and gun range. o...

Iron Skin DE shows through fog of war/DE display as buff

Version 1.1, Windows 10, gotcha and health values as the only noncosmetic mods. The iron skin DE shows buff popups at the map start objective flyby, revealing the locations and number of mechanical enemies. In addition, it seems like a bug that the only tactical DE which shows as a buff (green chevr...

Re: Dark Events

I guess I was just almost wiped by 2 gunners who both got it at the time, but grazing fire feels on a whole different power level from most other upgrades. It's a lot weaker (but still good) on player gunners, since you tend to set up good shots anyway, and w/o red fog you're damaging an enemy only ...

Re: Dark Events

An issue I have with permanent tactical dark events vs LW1 navigator upgrades is that the latter came in a fixed order and could be balanced around that. Here I got grazing fire as literally my first tactical upgrade at the start of may. Remember all that stuff about LW decreasing the importance of ...

Re: Soldiers cannot jump through windows or low cover

Is the bugged part only the windows/low cover and grenade targeting, or are the distant spawns bugged as well? 9 full dashes and one blue move for 12 mob soldiers to make to it evac leaves just 2-3 turns to do anything other than run around the outside streets, at least before officers.

Re: Soldiers cannot jump through windows or low cover

Starting a new campaign in 1.1, three city extraction maps in a row were horribly broken. The only mods used were gotcha, show health values and capnbubs accessories. The first was a rebel rescue, the bugs I noticed were: 1. A soldier to be rescued started outside the prison building next to the cel...
