I'm not sure this fixes it.
The basic question is if there are no corpses why wouldn't you stealth a mission? They payoff on the strategy layer is almost always bigger from stealth.

I've also seen it kill lots of advent when it targets corpses around where they are so works both ways...

I could live without 6-7 man mission if the larger missions were not so dull. I only ever seem to fight by sitting in a corner and waiting for waves of enemies to come to me. Moving-fighting-moving-fighting seems impossible. I can't remember the last time I've been able to take a flank shot without ...

The article on redit is a speculative piece about how to change the stealth mechanics. Is this right sub forum for that as it's not really a guide to the mod as it stands.

After sectopod break down and advanced grenades.

so by bring new baddies in earlier you increase the incentive for good players to do them as it opens up new research from the corpses earlier....

Saw the beserker queen on the blacksite.

Stunned it and killed it in one turn. It helped that it walked into the spot I had set up fire teams around the turn before to kill the the turbo bug.

I think it is an identified bug, I also think there is something in the 1.2 change log.

On my game I can build many, so not sure what triggers it.

I have had "missing" civs. They haven't actually been missing just very very hard to spot when the circles are gone. One time in three you'll spot them for the first time from the scorecard screen. Can they all just have crazy purple jumpers, or red shirts may be more fitting. Also where d...

Idea B please +1

the dude here takes 68 turns on legendary HQ with no rnf, so I'm not sure that is true

I continue to be amazed by the high standard of communication and dedication to quality that you guys demonstrate in the way you react to comments here *thumbs up*.

I think it can go down to 6 From above heavy ordinace also seems to have an effect therefore Start 13 less -3 for a grenade in each of the three utility slots less -1 for the grenade in the grendae only slot less -1 for the explosive grenade from HE less -1 for smoker less -1 for flashbanger End 6 I...

It is frustrating that this does not show in the UI at the squad select stage. Also frustrating that I've just put an AWC flashbanger on a high mobility shinobi thinking it was free. How extreme can this go, say we have a low mobiltiy guy with all the extras from grenadier incl full kit plus smoker ...

So liberating a less than strength 5 region can lead to under kill, i.e. str 4 - presumably only 4 die, which is less than the theoretical ideal.
Something to throw into the decision making mix next campaign.
Thanks for the answer.

I'm considering jumping into the pit. Can anyone help me with how the force level is calibrated. I understand it drives (but not exclusively) enemy types and am thinking about setting it back to 'just about to see archon levels'. Should this be 5,50,500? what is the typical numeric range and does it...

Strange, I did not get any rnf on the facilities. I thought the lead let you assult a facility in an un-contacted region. Revealing the faciliy on the map is a mystery to me, the log tells me doom is being added in western europe, but I've just contaced there and no facility. Presumably some other m...

Do liberations remove advent strength or just relocate it?
If I liberate a strength 5 region does global strength go down by 5?

(I know I can test this but my campaign in in a bit of a death spiral and I'm not liberating anything soon).

Am I right in thinking that the perks get assigned on character creation (rather than AWC level up) therefore the fix above won't impact existing characters?
Does that also apply to recruits before they become rookies? (i.e. a solider in the recruit screen has and already rolled AWC tree?)

sorry yes i did not intent to link to blank page but inadvertently left the last bracket off the last character of the link, apologies for that. http://www.ufopaedia.org/index.php/Difficulty_(LW2) the page should 4 columns one for each difficulty with the values that are different for each difficult...

If there is a cut off at 4 does that mean that a Haven with 3 supply, 3 intel, 3 recruit is functionally equivalent to a haven with everyone hiding? Therefore hiding is useful at the margin but not for everyone on the haven. Wish I knew this 3 game months ago when I put everyone into hiding at when ...

Given that the snapshot perk modifies the range penalties on the sniper rifle, could the other classes not have a base perk that increases the shotgun penalties at long range?

Thanks for the reply
Sorry by range I mean't radius, which I think is the same as AOE.

Is volatile mix the same as vanilla? as I think the perk was changed by a patch in vanilla to remove the radius increase.

There are a few perks that don't seem to work properly, in case you guys are interested in the feed back they are: Definitely broken: Easy to reproduce bugs. Savior : Heal more than the stated HP and seems to give multiple message in the combat log in the bottom right hand side of the screen, have s...
