Supression Aim Debuff Doesn't Stack

This might just be incorrect text. Anyways, the text for suppression explicitly says, that the aim De buff stacks. It doesn't. Additional suppressions do not reduce aim.

I use

1.2 LW

Windows 10.

Advent Visions

I was under the impression Advent could lose vision of your troops. As long as they could see none of them. However After hiding all my units in fog, with no advent sight, I got rocketed with no advent forces seeing my units. Does advent retain vision of units for a turn or something after you hide ...

Supression Stacking

The aim penalty from multiple suppression does not stack. However the tool tip for suppression says it does. Is the tool tip wrong, or is suppression supposed to stack?

Re: Motion Sensor

Not really. I actually meant motion tracker, said wrong name. It was the 3 use item that showed units position 5 tiles or so past vision range. The reason I don't like the battle scanner for this, is its single use and stationary. LW 2 is so mobile with the turn timers and evac points, that battle s...

Motion Sensor

An Item I really liked from LW1 was the motion sensor. It really felt like it reduced the randomness and uncontrollably of the game. In LW 2 with civilians hiding 1 hex invisible behind high cover waiting to break your concealment, this sort of item would be even more helpful. Is there any plan to a...

Advent Strength

How is the strength of advent troops determined. I know that higher advent threat level, and dark events can increase stats/abilities of advent. Does anything else increase there strength. Like Do advent troops passively get stronger over time separate from the threat level in the region. Is there a...

Customization Options upon reaching Sergent

One of the tool tips says you get more customization options when your soldiers reach Sergent. But I'm not sure what this means, I don't see any changes? What are you able to customize ?

Some maps to Big

Something I've noticed is that maps can vary wildly in size, but the amount of time you get to accomplish the objective is fixed. This is especially noticeable on some rescue missions, where you lose all your units if you don't make it to the other side in time. On some maps it feels like you have t...

Overwatch, Hacking and Game intention Question

I had a couple more questions. 1. How is overwatch Aim calculated. When looking at the aim numbers after shots, it looks like there is usually no aim penalty, but some units when getting shot are less than full aim. Like some might be 70 but others say 50. Maybe dodge effects overwatch dunno? 2. The...

Do Soldiers get stat bonuses with some Abilties

In LW 1 many of the abilities you leveled up often came with small stat bonuses in addition to the base skill. Like the medic class, got extra aim with some of the overwatch abilities if you went for that route. Do any of the LW 2 skill's give stats as 2nddary benefits, not counting the few that exp...

Re: Haven Advisors and Grazing Fire Questions

I see, thanks for the replies, but I have a follow up for #2.

If Spy's are tied to a specific Haven, doesn't that mean you'd potentially have to assign soldiers to every Haven to until you rooted out them out. Since I Don't think there's any way to tell which Haven the spy is in.

Haven Advisors and Grazing Fire Questions

I was playing LW 2 and had some questions about mechanics. 1. Do haven Advisors give a static bonus to the respective area, or only increase the effectiveness of other recruits. IE does an engineer assigned just grant extra supply even if no supply missions assigned. 2. Are the spy's that steal mone...
