It has both of those things.

Well, okay, it has flamethrowers as a heavy weapon. You still can't turn your mortally wounded troops into humans-in-a-MEC-can though. Or cyborgs.

I had better show up in this one though :argh:

I feel like an idiot for missing this in the steam sale. Watching this LP will make it all better though! :madmax:

You still have 12 hours to get it for 40% off on the Humble Bundle though! Note that the DLCs are available in a separate season pass; the Digital Deluxe version (which includes the base game and Resistance DLC only) is also available.

Yup, totally fine, as long as i can figure out how to import 'em. I seem to remember it was really easy.

I think I included instructions in my email for where to put the file, but after that you just go to Character Pool, Import Character, select all the files you want to import from, select the characters to import, click OK.

Worst come to worst, you can always install the LW Toolbox, crank squad size up to max, and see if a squad of 10-12 rookies with base gear can take on a Very Difficult mission without all dying~

On supply raid missions, it's nice to have Phantom Rangers to act as forward spotters for my squadsight Snipers. Especially if I expect Alien Royalty to come calling. On missions with a time limit... well, a Phantom Ranger with an exoskeletal armor can wreck a beacon, cloak, and then hide while everyone else chills out in overwatch on a rooftop, and if you're evacuating a VIP it's nice to have someone who the enemies WON'T shoot at.

If you always advance your squad as a cohesive group, though, Phantom Rangers don't really work in that playstyle.

Dang, I go away for a bit and this happens. I suppose I missed the signup period, but if not let me know so I can die horribly while wearing a stupid hat. For some reason the game runs like rear end on my computer ever since the Anarchy's Children DLC came out, so it's good to have more XCOM.

Something that changes the base game but doesn't go to Long War levels of insane tweaking. I liked some of the things Long War did but it felt like they tried to do too much with one mod package and lost focus.

I'd probably check the XCOM 2 thread and ask. Numerical Health, Evac All, and LW Toolbox are pretty nice just off the top of my head, though.

Bit of a shame SPARKs are apparently completely robotic. Would have been nice if there was a feature to convert KIAs into SPARKS either cybernetic dreadnought style or uploading a mind/personality imprint thing.
