I think you don't really understand me. There wasn't really a question, the numbers seemed "off" to me for that mission compared to others and the lack of some information on the UFOpedia table ( http://www.ufopaedia.org/index.php/Missions_(LW2)#ADVENT_Activity last line "Rendezvous&q...

And you would rather have AP on your sharpshooters. Um, no, I would not. Not until they are high rank. Late game I'll take AP, sure, but at lower levels I want them landing hits. As often, i think there is no hard rule and absolute answer. If your sharpshooter already have great aim (72+ base) or w...

OK thanks. I know the mission but to me it was an "intel raid". Well yes missions were advent is actually the aggressor and XCom the defender have all advent on yellow which is normal as they are attacking you, so they know you are there. (usually you'll get 3+ of your rebels murdered beca...

Yes, but in the case of those Faceless missions, since the required intel of 2 is in the first table, it means it's compared to the full income of 5 for a lance corporal and not 1 as you suggested. If you want to report it on a 1 intel/day scale, it means the required intel to start detecting the mi...

If they were wiped out should it say region lost? Maybe not, but it means troubles for sure :o Now that they are gone how do I get more people there? If Advent vigilance is lower than 7, you can still get those Jailbreak missions where you get to free some rebels. Without any activity (as you don't...

Are those rounds 100% chance to apply their effect or less? In vanilla it wasn't guaranteed. If the effect is always applied they are indeed quite good, but if it's only a chance, less so. Poison effect can be countered by equipping a medikit with the added bonus of healing your comrades and so far ...

Actually it was "Never ever!"
Or maybe it was both in answer to different people.

I very much like the rocket side of the tree. I will agree that the Concussion Rocket is terible at doing its stated job, but it's fantastic as a general demolition tool, and you get it long before your grenadiers could get the job done. You can actually destroy cover with a concussion Rocket? Neve...

Looks like she spawned on a non walkable tile and this prevents you from moving.
I've observed something similar playing with additional mission types (before LW2) where dark VIP would sometimes spawn on tables and you couldn't knock them down (but you could still kill them)

Reason why I say that is because rebels on intel say 5 intel income, but ufopedia says it comes out to 1 per day. That is believable, because the 5 never said how often it comes. So in other words if you divide soldier income by 5 then it makes sense. From what i understood, they actually "nor...

And what about gunners with the combative perk. Do you counter each other till someone fails their roll?

Now that' a big investment for a haven advisor

Well, statistics have nothing to do with dice rolls so i expect a pod coming out of the fog to always shoot at me at least once and try to keep my soldiers in cover ;) But otherwise, yeah i rarely see more than 2 actions (apart from the occasional overwatch) Note that actions are not necessarily sho...

Exactly what i'd like to know!

A squaddie is rank 0, hence it would give 0 points, not 5. [1] is lance corporal, [7] is master sergeant. Hence squaddies shouldn't be able to detect faceless at all. There is no conflict to resolve. Oh, i thought rank 0 was a rookie. So those "out of the GTS soldiers" are useless as Face...

Something i haven't seen mentioned are tactical vests. The +4 health/+1 armor isn't horrible and easily compensates the lack of armor on an exo suit. This allows you to trade a grenade for the much better shredder gun without sacrificing your survivability. Obviously not for mass production but i fi...

What is data tap?

Also what happens to their accumulated intel towards faceless detection when you remove them? At best it won't grow, at worst it could be lost.

1.- What make a green pod turns into a yellow pod? Can we revert their status to green? Being loud (firing your weapons, using explosives, even breaking windows ...). The louder the sound, the greater the distance at which pods hear you. In addition, hacking an objective will turn all or maybe only...

When i first saw the class, i found the concept pretty cool. Then i had my rockets scatter everywere but where i wanted and almost dropped them. Then someone explained how scatter worked and i decided to test a high aim tech rocketeer. After dubious results, here is how i would spec a rocketeer and ...

Question to those using the Musashi mods? Since they are not made for LW2 but work with LW2, do they come with the right techs, are built LW style (1 at a time), how are their damage compared to the (stronger) swords? Do you have to ini-edit the stats to make them more in line with the rest of the L...

Add Musashi's Ninjato mod and things get REALLY interesting, -1 damage and all. <ignore>Is it this mod? http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=677573817 </ignore> Second time i hear of the "ninjato" mod but i don't see any ninjato mod in Musashi's workshop so i guess you ar...

Are you sure they are not simply equipped on soldiers currently doing infiltration which would prevent them from being available when you click "make weapons available"? I've never seen that but once i "lost" my advanced Arc Thrower (stungun) and couldn't get it back even after c...

Lots of questions. I'll try to answer to my best. Hopefully people with more knowledge will correct any mistake. So if I liberate a region, that won't be target for advent anymore? They won't make retaliations, but they might attempt to invade the region and re-take it. This will only happen if they...

And yet, someone else tested exactly the opposite. The armory don't show a difference, it's only on the tactical map that the items are added so you won't see the effect in the armory. When you tested it on the field, how much mobility did you have with both soldiers. I'm not talking about number of...
