Aw yes, Reflex Grips are such a huge game changer just because how much more flexible they allow you to be in your tactics. :getin:

Also, you should really look in to researching the Grey Phoenix Equipment when you have a chance; out of the three factions, they have what I feel is the best armor mod.

I'm glad he went to space got arrested, but I really respect the hustle of any enemy that decides "gently caress it I'll just casually throw this grenade three feet"

Even if the only reason they did it was because they probably knew they were three pixels outside of the blast radius. We all know a Muton would have thought it was the coolest poo poo even if it was risky.

Reflex grips are cool, but Verge's Principal Agent power is arguably the most broken ability in the game once you figure out exactly how it works under the hood.

Do tell? Verge already seems very strong when used properly as it is.

The Motile Inducer lets one of your squad members target another of your squad members and say, "Hey, you can now have a free full turn in the middle of my turn."

This is exactly as stupidly broken as it sounds. :getin:

Yeah, Regen Weave is the reason I suggested researching Grey Phoenix Equipment next. Costs 80 spacebucks, and heals the wearer for 2 HP at the end of their turn. Not necessarily the best armor mod, but definitely my favorite just for the amount of passive healing it puts out over the course of multi-part missions.

If you have Shelter recruited, when the Progeny's leader is revealed, he'll chime in with some extra dialogue, similar to how Cherub spoke up about being a clone of Bellus Mar when we learned he was the leader of Sacred Coil, and how Axiom talked about how the leaders of Grey Phoenix were using ship dialect as code names when they were revealed.

Also, yes, Regen Weave is good. Can't speak for Hell Weave or Overdrive Serum, but I definitely got my money's worth out of Regen Weave.

Every time you use Godmother I'm sad she's sat on the sidelines for most of the game. She feels like the hardest hitter on the team that includes a Muton and a psychic, that's impressive.

Godmother is basically a shotgun Ranger from XCOM2 with the close combat specialist skill from Enemy Unknown, and all the bursty damage potential that implies. She relies on teammates a bit more than Axiom, but her ceiling is higher. She can also get pretty good dodge at high levels.

Dan's been on some kind of hell-schedule at work. He and Grace always finish LPs as far as I've seen. Just might take them a while to circle back to it once they have the time. The XCOM2 LP had a hole of like six months in the middle, but they got it done!
