Early Counter-Terror: Field Surgeon, Rapid Reaction, Paramedic, Opportunist Field surgeon keeps the A-squad in action, RR for shotgun, paramedic so the squad doesn't slow down against mints, Opportunist rehabilitates the soldier for lategame. Can also go for council missions, you don't want to suppress thin men anyway.
Early Line Medic: Suppression, Rapid Reaction, Smoke Grenade, Dense Smoke The dense smoke rehabilitates late game suppression by allowing the medic to smoke himself before suppressing a dangerous target. RR vs S&M is arguable, the ability to kill 2 in overwatch is very useful earlygame even if it falls off quickly. Make them from high-aim low-will guys!
Late Line Medic: Steadfast, Smoke and Mirrors, Smoke grenade, Drugs, Sprinter, Extra Conditioning Psi, Versatile. Savior may replace EC depending on survivability.
Late Base Assault Medic: Steadfast, Revive, Smoke Grenade, Drugs, Bombard, Packmaster Lots of consumables, bombard to help throws in those nasty cover-deprived UFO corridors.

Do i want to buy the expansion ? At least, do the modders that worked on it get some of that money ?

ok just fuck me I give up
Noah Johnson
Quick question, does anyone know how to make xskin actually use a model to replace the lw smg?
Adam Garcia
nope
Dylan Morgan
You pretty much always need a dedicated armor shredder in the lategame, to deal with sectopods and especially gatekeepers.
I like to use rocket technicals with shredder rounds and the shredder perk (because concussion rocket is fucking useless anyway, why did Lump think it was a good idea to give smoke to your enemies?)
Then with one shot you remove 5 armor, then chainshot/rapid fire with bluescreen rounds, bye bye sectopod.
Jason Wright
Sectopods were worse in LW1. At least here you have heat grenades, shredder, etc.
Nicholas Powell
That's too early. I guess I'll just have to filter out all XCOM content for the last two weeks before release.

Hi guys

Don't make me do it user.
Gabriel Smith
Missions with haven recuits with shit weapons vs advent troops and faceless are the only fucking fun missions in LW2, what went so wrong?
Bentley Thompson
>the easiest and worst missions are the best Probably because you're dumb.
Alexander Lopez

Isaiah Reyes
>all these posts that WOTC was a mod is there proof?
Gavin Nguyen
PAID MODS FUCKING BETHESDA REEEEEEEE
James Powell
>is there proof? It's just your average bait.
Bentley Miller
it's a joke about how 50% of the content seems to be taken out of mods avalaible on the workshop, like bonding and new ADVENT units But seriously, i didn't inform myself that well recently, does the expansion fixes shit and adds interesting stuff ? In one sentence : is it worth it ?
Logan Foster
>bonding Based on firaxis choice
Jace Jones
>is it worth it ? yes. Much larger than the EW expansion
Jackson Martin
I prefer this to having the embargo lift only a day or so before launch.
Sebastian Gray
Shows at least there is some good faith in the industry.
Luis Green
In LW1, my Portent map seems to be bugged. I don't play with the DLC missions on, and whenever I get this map in the rotation, it only spawns with one pod of 3 on top of the close building.
This happens if I get the map for the very first mission of the campaign, and I just had it again on a Heavy Abduction. Is this a known bug and/or does anyone else have this happen?
Aaron Thomas
Any fixes for LW Toolbox resetting the squad size to four? I want to play with a squad size of six, since I enjoy playing with ABA 2 on Commander.
Andrew Nelson
What the fuck kind of gun is that?
John Kelly
A poorly drawn one
Landon Rodriguez
Sharpshooter's revolver.
Julian Hernandez
Are female archons on the steam workshop? I don't want to make an LL account.
Cooper Russell
Is beagle streaming tonight or not?
Kayden Thomas
You can probably edit the ini, but I usually would just deal with 4 men on gatecrasher.
Luke Sullivan
Just use a throwaway email. Or you can wait about a half hour until I get home and I'll mirror it on Dropbox for you.
Michael Jones
Thanks for confirming. Nah, its alright, I wasn't using that self-respect anyway.
Grayson Jenkins
>bonding Literally taken from firaxis' half baked code for that mod
Jace Russell
Yeah, don't use it. Use another squad mod that actually works.
Aaron Johnson
LW toolbox works fine, I've just been too lazy to fix it so gatecrasher doesn't start with four guys.
Kayden Wright
>Giant Gatekeeper flying towards you from above >I'm gonna shoot it! >I know, I'll target my feet!
Noah Price
Yes
Dylan Smith
luckier than I am then, doesn't seem to want to work for me most of the time with something always breaking.
Luis Cruz
I think we need to talk about the bonus situation.
Henry Ward
What happened to the porn industry with Advent in control?
Wouldn't bet on it for at least a month post release. They can't take momentum and hype away from the expac.
Zachary Adams

Jack Flores
All you need to worry about is how to take them off. Stimulants for her very Thorough exams
Thomas Hall
Sorry, fuse
Asher Jones
Was it an ADVENT commando or something? I think those guys have evasive, which means the first damage tick is a nearly guaranteed dodge unless there's enough crit to promote the roll.
Oliver Diaz
>tfw you use blaster to destroy the rendezvous point half a map away to something much closer now this is pod racing
Easton Gutierrez
>now this is pod racing
No, 'pod racing' would just be trying to leg it past the enemy squads as fast as possible
Ryan Hernandez
/xcg/, a friend and I just figured out why Jake never fixes his game: because making a new game *is* Jake's game. He doesn't fix his game, he makes a new game for us to break. Jake is evil, making new things and not fixing his game.
Caleb Jones
>Jake is evil
Don't you dare talk about my husband like that.
Brayden Davis
>my husband You wish.
Me too. :(
Bentley Sanders
>200% >Swarming+++ send help
Charles Brown
HQ Assaults are almost always swarming. Infiltrating past 100% still helps, but they're never going to be easy fights. Fortunately they aren't timed, so you can overwatch crawl your heart out.
Alexander Ross
why the fuck did Lump make avatar facilities so hard to destroy
Owen Jenkins
I think they get nuked when you liberate a region, either that or doing so takes a block out.
Anyway I usually do a story mission when I need avatar knockdowns.
Connor Brown
Ok, if you could throw attachments on an ARC thrower, what in your opinions would be balanced?
Cooper Rivera
extentede mag (charge) Hair trigger Stock (1 dmg if you miss the stun)
Robert Jenkins
There's not really much you could do to them but scopes. And that is covered by extra aim from higher tier throwers.
I hardly use them anyway, they're a backup weapon.
Jeremiah Peterson
Oh and scope, but it extends stun range instead of better stun chance
Luke Myers
tell me about the Gunner's combat knife, /xcg/ literally what in the fuck is it supposed to do
Adam White
>not a single mention of beagle activity Guess bagleposter is ded.
Cameron Walker
at least we know he's gonna stream WotC I guess
Carson Anderson
Cannons have a close range penalty so the knife is supposed to help out in close quarters. Really good vs sectors and vibroblades are cheap.
Evan Anderson
whats the ideal distance for the cannon anyway? 5-7 tiles?
William James
>5-7 tiles? 5 is best
Aaron Lewis
How the fuck does sectoid get corrected but not vibroblades?
Jordan Peterson
People who write the autocorrect dictionaries are star wars nerds.
Leo Fisher
Hop into TNX, Angry Beags is back
Asher Gonzalez
elevation in EU was always fucky and Beags getting fucked over by it is not that surprising
Luis Richardson
Psshh nothin personnel
Owen Sullivan
This really is a new level of fuckery desu
Juan Gomez
>taking biggest booms over chain shot
Kayden Smith
>taking a larger area of effect for the only skill in the game that is 100% guaranteed to hit, vs taking a skill that only fires if a pretty terrible hit chance succeeds I don't see the problem.
Sebastian Parker
I thought this was the third week in a row so I assumed it was canceled
Jayden Cruz
volatile mix is not biggest booms
biggest booms is a 50% chance to deal +3 damage on grenades. chain shot gives you burst damage from your grenadiers that doesn't rely on consumables.
Lincoln Evans
Welp, you've got me. I played EU drastically more than I played X2, so I was misremembering the skill.
Jayden Gutierrez
well I'm also talking about long war
in vanilla biggest booms is a bonus perk from the GTS you can buy for all grenadiers, in long war it's part of the demolition tree
Liam Stewart
so is Beagle on a trap mission or did he just get really unlucky
