Ask the ThinMan for a fortune telling

I don't believe it.

I got a new Sergeant soldier via completing a mission only for the very next mission to spawn with low profile with that newbie being the only person I could send. Fucking hell

First for Hunter bantz.

I just want to be able to make a full squad of shadowrun badasses

Make your order now and get it 15% off

What's everyones wishlist for mods, big or small?

>more faces, male and female
>beaglerush voicepack
>Valkyria Chronicles ports (for those sweet sweet uniforms)
>elf ears
>ww2 weapons and props
>ports of the titanfall 2 multiplayer robot classes for having robutts in my squad

>>Valkyria Chronicles ports (for those sweet sweet uniforms)
This exists. It's only on Nexusmods.

Yeah, I was saying something similar last thread.

I want to be able to recreate her

>tusks on samurai mask
It just isn't the same.

>he's not pulling my leg
>sweet jesus christ, the mod I've been asking for since before release is finally here

user, I am actually crying a little right now, as hard as that is to believe.

The Hunter is a bitch and cannot match X-com's snipers.

sharpshooters? more like shitshooters cause they keep fucking missing

>Sharpsoothers
>soothers

A female version of XSoldier so that I can have Amazonian warrior women alongside my beefcake barbarians.

More clothes options, especially swimsuit-style ones (speedos, thongs, sling bikinis, etc) that would work with those mods.

Mods that bring back XCom 1 classes like the MEC pilot and enemies like the Seeker and Floater.

It's literally impossible to have more than 3 or 4 cosmetic mods installed simultaneously without shit like pic related happening...

Who needs arms anyway?

I'm using about ten and the only problems I've run into is some lag at loading screens.

That nipple is offensive as fuck.

You need to curate that shit. Any mod that adds invisible arms and legs is a no for me. The Halo armor mod also has weird compatibility restrictions and rules so I axed it.

...

Commence operation Ruby Comet.
Chosen Warcuck is hopefully getting rekt.

Its ok its a dude nip.

Where's my smug Warlock god damn it

What all did they do to make the SPARKs better in WOTC?

You DO play XCOM: The Board Game, don't you, /xcg/?

More tanky, better aim, and most importantly, they don't fatigue. If you can get them early game, they're life savers.

>Harder Chosen Strongholds
>LW mods ported
>Resistance Factions Overhaul (can lose rep with factions now and potentially make them hostile, new missions to help AI faction squads, unique missions for each faction like hacking into an Advent network and causing an uprising of defectors)

If I had friends I would.

/xcg/ boardgame night over tabletop sim when

What's the matter? Don't you want to dig up your greenest sweater and roleplay as Central?

Man being able to piss off the factions would be rad. Imagine using the Lost turn mechanic to have a Reapers be a 3rd party in a fight between you and ADVENT. The salt would be so real as everyone gets Remote Start-ed and shot from flanking concealment 2 tiles away.

>ywn help a female skirmisher overcome her autistic tomboy warrior nature and help her to discover the wonders of her femininity
>ywn turn her into a girly girl and hold hands

why even live bros

I'd like to see the Resistance and Chosen ideas expanded upon.

Also more faces.

>sharsoothers

?

> Tfw no Tsundere Reaper waifu
> Why are you XCOM operatives so terrible at aiming, look let me show you. Just aim like this, steady your rifle with both hands. Like this. W-what are you doing!? It's not like I like you or anything, I just can't have someone like you watching my back, you R-rookie!
Just to suffer.

ELENA! NO!

superior perception, superior scope, tracer rounds dark lance, death form above, serial

What is going on with those arms

i ship them

>using the mod pack that has like five cheytac interventions

This is some anime bullshit going on right here.

Is Alpha's Shock Trooper mod good? I want to werf flammen.

His arms just come out of his neck he has neither shoulder nor torso

There are only 3 good class mods, and that isn't one of them

>shouldermobilitylets
dyel?

CURSE YOU ELDERS!
CURSE YOU ADVENT!
CURSE YOU Jax-Hur Balladhur!

>Mox coping a feel
Jake knows what he was doing.

Post your favorite posters.

>having to give a sniper all that to make them not miss

>Want more Reapers because even with 2 they're usually Tired
>Getting any more of them would feel too cheesy

Personally my SPARKs have made Grenadiers redundant, they're just 2 gud. My highest Grenadier was CPL before I noticed and deliberately started trying to rank them up. Only mod I have for them is "Sparks can bond" and the one improvement mod that isn't as excessive as Metal Over Flesh.

Any good face paint mods for WotC?

Which ones are those?

No.

Post MEMES

>hold hands

degenerates like you need to be gassed

>Thin Men are actually Snake People

Weird
I liked the look of the thin men.

...

The MEGA mod repository mods work with WotC?

They're just a teeny bit off being super broken now.

Even giving them AP abilities and the capacity to accept breakthroughs makes them OP as fuck.

Tier 3 armor looks shit on everyone, but SPARKs get the worst of it.

...

Anyone know if there are any mods that backport WoTCs flank preview to LW2? I can't live without an actually useful preview of enemies I'll hit instead of trying to make sure they're on screen at all times like with Gotcha Again

I can deal with the shitty upper torso, what looks like shit is literally every pair of vanilla legs. I put EW legs on all my MECs.

T3 does not look protective at all

Will this lucky alpha legendary campaign descend into shit?

...

Armored Core tier customization for SPARKS.

I'm talkin' full-on
>Head
>Core
>Arms
>Legs
>Generator
>FCS
>Booster
>Radiator
>Internal
>L+R Shoulder
>L+R Arm
>Melee

But ultimately that much customization is pointless in XCOM, so id settle for just the parts for apperance.

Maybe I am just a min-maxing faggot but I wish I could break bonds, I want the best to only bond with the best.

Oh fuck me!

it's alien alloys, you don't need fifteen inch plates for it to be effective

>Tfw xcom breaks into your room at night and drags your best bud room mate off screaming into the night and assigns you the higher-up bitch who's always trying to outclass you

you need energy to break bonds

> tfw no Wanzer port and complete gameplay overhaul mod

These are my favorite. I didn't make them, though.

This give me an idea, what if his teammate had an "accident".

This is why I never bond people until I'm 100% certain it's who I want teamed up.

Generally speaking I do
>Spark with Spark, since if I deploy them I deploy SPARKs in teams of two anyways
>Grenadier with Specialist
>Sharpshooter with Reaper or Ranger (Squadsight memes)
>PSIops get bonded in teams of two, teamed with their Psi Training buddy since you make them at the same time anyways
>Templars and Skirmishers get fucked, whoever they seem to go with often I usually just slap them with (though I rarely use either)

mitochondria is the powerhouse of the cell

This one isn't bad for an automatic picture I didn't pose myself.

looks like a badly drawn Spurdo.

You deserve a squadwipe for being French.

they can use weapon mods

And that's the story of my 7th Legendary campaign restart. How was your day, /xcg/?

>using gaylo mods
die

...

>gaylo
Man, its like I'm really talking to a /v/irgin

sorry did I trigger you for liking the derivative overrated trash that is halo?

How does it feel to have shit taste my man

Well I clearly triggered you by posting it, so I'll continue.
>waaaaah stop liking what I don't like!

Dumb nigger, have you still not learned that Rooftops CANNOT be trusted.

Annoyed, new graphics card was a brick. Will probably need to wait another 3 weeks between shipping back the return and having a new one shipped. I will continue to endure medium settings for now.

And related WEBM from that mission

jokes on you I love halo

> ADVENT Pepsi or Sectoid Cola...

always sucks when shit comes in DoA

better luck with your RMA

Rooftops are fine, I'm convinced that it's solely the council missions that become the most terrible clusterfuck missions out of nowhere
God, damn it
If it had just been a guerrilla op, none of that would have happened and you can't tell me otherwise. That bald fuck has it out for me
