[WotC] More Mission Types

— Full credit for mod goes to Coyotekins (Fireborn) —

This mod adds in a total of 8 new mission types to offer exciting new challenges and increase gameplay variety!

The mission types are as follows:

Skyranger Down: On the way to the objective the skyranger is shot down. This can result in a variety of intense missions that you will have to get through.

–Skyranger Down Dark Event: Also included is a new dark event ‘Skyranger Down’ which increases the chances of the skyranger being shot down and this tough mission type showing up.

Gateway Battle: You are defending a resistance base against an onslaught of ADVENT forces. Over time both ADVENT and resistance forces will reinforce both teams positions until one side is victorious.

Outpost Distress Beacon: A resistance outpost has sent out a distress signal. It is up to you to find this outpost which can start a range of various events.

Advent Activity: It is up to you to wipe out an ADVENT force. This time however, you are tactically situated where you can take all the time in the world to fulfill your objective.

Resistance Support: A group of resistance soldiers needs your help. Assist them by killing enemies, firing upon ADVENT troops, and drawing fire away from them.

Convoy Escort: A resistance group has been able to capture an ADVENT tank, but needs help delivering it back to their base. You are requested to help guide the tank while defending against ADVENT troops.

Resistance Fortress: A major resistance base is under assault. It is your objective to defend the base from waves of reinforcing enemies.

Covert Ops Ambush Variant: Instead of traversing across the map, you can now also be required to hold your position for a set amount of time.

Along with the new mission types, this mod adds in a new hack reward and item to help make getting through these missions a little easier!

Reinforcements: For 400 supplies you can purchase a new resistance beacon which will call down a group of ai controlled soldiers to assist you. Additionally there is a new hack reward which can call friendly resistance soldiers to help you complete your objectives! All of these new soldiers come with a new and improved AI system which is also compatible with the range of other AI mods out there!

There are have been reports of crashing while using Quick Soldier Info with the Enable Tactical Photo setting on.

If playing with the lost and abandoned story mission enabled, the game could also crash on the global map at the start of the campaign.

8/4/2019: Attempt to fix Convoy Escort tank pathing issues. This should hopefully resolve any problems with the tank getting stuck on this mission. If you do still have problems with this mission on a new game, with a cleaned out config folder, and are positive you are updated to the latest version of the mod, post your issue over at the nexus here[www.nexusmods.com].

Balance changes to increase the strength and aim of friendly resistance soldiers as well as increasing friendly tank aim. This should assist in overcoming some of the harder missions in this mod. (Note: these changes only alter the resistance soldiers added in this mod, not the resistance soldiers form the base game).
