Hahaha Bladestorm procs even if your ranger is unconscious.  Stun lancer just ran up, knocked my guy out cold, guy then proceeded to get up and kill the poo poo out of the lancer before slumping over in an unconscious heap again.

Did they remove the thing where your troops would get scars sometimes when badly wounded? It happened a lot in my old playthroughs but I haven't seen it happen once since WoTC.

RBA Starblade posted:Here's something that sucks: the Archon King is resistant to frost bombs now. It only lasts 1 action according to the frozen timer. Also Rend, Momentum, and Bladestorm counts as three if combined (even if you haven't done anything with Momentum yet) so the pinions are impossible to dodge. Have fun! Best trick I found for avoiding the pinions was stasis.

Tae posted:I think my plan for the archon king next time is to put him in Statis, surround him, then overwatch everyone before initiating the turn. Get the most damage with the least action. Would that work though? The stasis lasts until the start of your next turn, at which point all your overwatch will be removed.

Magni posted:If you play with integrated DLC, do the Rulers appear in their normal sequence or a random one in their respective facilities? Just asking because I'm not sure wether I hosed up remembering the sequence in which they popped up. In related news, I'm still on mag weapons and just unleashed the Archon King. I think they spawn at facilities as you discover them in the standard order (viper, berserker, archon), but when you encounter them depends on which facilities you hit. I just finished my first WoTC campaign and never saw the Viper, for example.

TeaJay posted:Is there a bug or something in WoTC with Advent trooper corpses? I have not sold any as far as I can remember, and the game won't let me make Predator armor since I only have 5/6. Is it connected with the kind of missions I do, where a run & gun mission won't let me take corpses with me, but rather I need a "kill everything" type of clean-up mission to get some corpses? Any mission where you evac at the end won't give you any corpses.

Taear posted:And maybe Templars were an afterthought added in later? It'd make sense. Apparently there was a 4th Android faction and a 4th grenadier type Chosen that were cut pretty early on, so presumably we'd have got another story mission that introduced the other two factions.

Anonymous Robot posted:I tried to give XCOM2 another shake with the expansion pack installed, and while it seems to have improved the game in a huge number of ways and added a lot, the first mission it generated me had a 4-turn timer, and I did nothing but double-move my squad straight for the objective, and managed to encounter no pods, and was still a solid 2 double moves away from the marker. You sure that wasn't one where you have to shoot the little psionic relays as you go to gain extra turns? Pretty sure those are the only missions that start with such a low turn timer.

Has anyone ever had some of their soldiers start the mission with depleted ammo? Occasionally a couple of my guys will start with half or less ammo. I dunno if a mod would cause it but I really only use cosmetic and QOL stuff like evac-all and the like.

Light Gun Man posted:I'm pretty sure just GOING on a covert OP unequips soldiers, doesn't it? Nope they take whatever they’ve got equipped at the time, which is handy when they get ambushed cos they’ll actually have decent gear, but not so handy when you forget you left your WAR suit and disruptor rifle on someone right before a mission pops up.

I am considering installing the one that only starts countdowns upon reveal but I could be convinced to keep things more vanilla. Evac-all, target/flank preview, black market usage and numerical health values are the ones that come to mind.

marshmallow creep posted:I just got to that point and came here to post exactly this. Wait ‘till you find out what the artefact you have to recover in the final mission is.  Holy moly this DLC was great, I expected to just blast through a couple of boring missions to unlock some cool toys for the campaign, but the missions were legitimately fun and the ridiculous amount of new fluff and backstory made them even better. Going through the whole progression of gear and enemies in a few missions was really satisfying.

Backhand posted:So.... weird thing. I was on mission 3 of DJ's campaign and things took a turn for the very bad. Like, not-recoverable bad. Out of pure frustrated annoyance, I decided to see what actually happened when you outright lost a legacy op - I know you lose the 5000 points for restarting, but I'd never outright failed a mission. Yeah I had a similar thing happen where Tygan died accidentally on like turn 2 in his mission in the last campaign, it let me restart with no points lost and I still got the gold medal for that campaign.

Basic Chunnel posted:Here’s a question: at what point do you unlock the new map types for the WOTC campaign mode? You don't technically get any of the hand built EW-remake maps in campaign, but a few new modules get added to the procedural generation pool, so you can get the police station or petrol station etc show up in your maps. They're added just by owning the DLC I'm pretty sure, no completion requirements like the gear/attitudes.
