Do anybody else think the retraining time is too high?

I decided to retrain an officer sergeant and... 20 days! And it increases with the rank. Why the developers decided to do this way? I mean that in this way the AWC option becomes pointless. I thinked the retraining a tool to recover from unexpected dissasters, for example if we had a pair of bad dic...

Re: What are the effects of will on Long War 2?

It's just defense to psionics/panic. While it may influence bleed out chance, in LW2 bleed out is changed to look at how much "overkill" damage you take. This makes the "PCS: will" even weaker in comparisson with aim, defense or dodge. Any idea to not sell them all as soon as ma...

What are the effects of will on Long War 2?

As far as I know in Vanilla will serves as defense to psionics, as defense to panic and it gives a +1% chance of bleeding instead of dying for each point over 50.

Are these effects the same? are there new effects?

Re: Question about heaven management mechanics.

Then I see very importan focus on eliminating Faceless, as the mission is easy and the reward is high (corpses and a lot of rebel work). So, what are the ways to increase the chances of detecting a faceles? number of intel rebels, rank of advisor, class of advisor or what?

It would be great to have a button on to unload all addons fro all unequiped weapons on the preparing squad window. If not we must to load and unload several times, several weapons o change addons from some weapons to another ones.

Re: Question about heaven management mechanics.

I know the faceless can steal supplies. What other effects they have? And how much?

I mean for example: "A no hunted faceless make intell decrease in X%" or "a faceless makes the job of the fake rebel doesn't count"
