Great info, thanks! I think I'll avoid any place with Advent Strength of seven

I just thought of something. Would it be possible to lower the Advent Strength by putting my rebels in hiding and moving the Avenger to another region and doing missions there? I guess it's something I can try, but there might be other factors that cloud the issue. I'm just thinking how miserable it...

I just got a lesson in the increased activity. I did a lone wolf VIP escort mission. I had done this in an Advent Strength One region and was able to outfox the what turned out to be eight soldiers looking for me. However, this time as a Lone Wolf VIP escort in an Advent Strength Three region, I had...

I'm currently working on liberating my second area. I just notice that the Advent strength has increased to three. In my first region it was pretty much one all the time. In this new region with Advent Strength 3, is there anything I should be doing differently, say in how I assign the resistance or...

Great, thanks!

I have one that indicates what corpses/items are useful for (very nice to avoid selling those drone wrecks you might want for making gremlins) and that's about it. Would you please post a link to this mod? It sounds very useful. I looked through the Steam Workshop but there are so many mods now :sh...

Thanks Arcalane, that is a nice simple way to remember it.

Is there any pop-up notification of losses or do you just have to keep a list of numbers of recruits per region?

FWIW, unless you absolutely need the infiltration speed bonus from a two-man crew then the minimum you want to be taking is 3; XP split is capped such that you are effectively wasting a third of the total XP. Might as well get dude #3 some free XP, even if all they're doing is staying on the opposi...

I actually hunker down quite a bit (enemies rarely run your overwatch traps unless you are literally out of their range, and even then sometimes they just overwatch themselves); they would rather stand behind high cover and shoot at you). So what this means is with the assault class I advance him a...

I'd like to know this as well, since I've just liberated my first region too. And the mission took four hours...

Thanks for posting this. I've been copying and pasting items like these and putting them into documents for the convenience of the folks on the forum where I hang out. It really is imperative that folks read through these archive updates before they get themselves too frustrated. And that they start...

Great information! Thanks for posting it, I have a better idea now of what I am trying to achieve.

I do have a question about when you contact a second region. I still have my first region set to all six rebels gathering Intel. Should I do the same on this new area? I'm going to be spread thin covering all the missions. I guess I'm not understanding the overall picture of Havens. Have I made cont...

I just ran my first mission using the suggestions I've been picking up here in the forum. I had a "hack the hidden resistance computer" mission, so I assigned four speed 15 folks (one being a specialist) and loaded them with SMG and removed all their utility items, resulting in Speed 18 fo...

Current Enemy Activity: Extremely Light... Enemy Readiness: Vulnerable... Are these the best conditions I can get before launching a mission? So far I haven't seen better. My current Infiltration is 157% and I know that if I get higher the evac time is reduced by one or two turns, but otherwise is t...

Evac timers are the big reason to go over 100% infil - 150% and 190% reduce them by 1 each (200% for the second one after 1.1 patch). You also get smaller detection radii and less enemies, though the enemy count doesn't decrease as fast as it does before 100%. 200% is the max. No benefits beyond th...
