I am an old fan of xcom in general and long war in particular. Though long war totally spoiled me, in a good way, so I never even played the vanilla version after getting a taste of LW. So I am just playing WotC right now and damn its good. I really enjoy all these new things introduced, especially ...

Honestly, I just dunno what am I doing wrong, but in like 3 commander difficulty playthrough I lost to avatar project, because not once I found a facility lead.
