-WHAT IS X.C.O.M-

Xtra Class Outside Mods is a series of mods I plan to release for both vanilla and WOTC XCOM2 and consist of soldier classes for the player to use. They will use no external assets apart from a simple class logo to ensure maximum compatibility with the base game files and those of other mods as well. The aim of the series is to add classes within XCOM 2 to give players variety within a very confined system, the soldiers will feel the same and use the same weapons and abilities however there will be more variation to said soldiers. Melee Snipers, Assault Medics, Grenadiers with Gremlins and more to give the game more vanilla flavouring. Each new class will have their own name, nicknames, progression speed, fluffy lore, short comings which need to be compensated and many roles to play on the field of battle. No ‘One man/woman/alien’ army soldiers. That wouldn’t be XCOM now would it?

-THE BLACKHAT-

A ‘BlackHat’ hacker in old world terms meant an individual who breaches cyber security systems for malicious or nefarious purposes, now these once criminal individuals have been given a home at XCOM on one condition, that they use their advanced technical knowledge to help the resistance in fighting ADVENT and their alien overlords. They are given Gremlin units as personal extensions of their abilities and can provide support to any squad members near enough anywhere on the field of battle.

They excel in breaching cyber based security so magnetic locks, robotic enemies and security towers are all but play things to the BlackHat and with enough promotions, can turn said things into assets for XCOM agents on missions. While not very combat centred nor able to use their Gremlin for medical purposes, they also specialise in keeping tabs on the battlefield, often acting as an overseer at high ground aided by their squad sight and scanning protocols. Coupled with abilities such as destroying cover, always being very hard to hit AND being able to stun most units,all while hacking the objective with everyone else busy.

BlackHat soldiers are a very valuable asset to literally any team, just don’t green light their requests to have access to public internet systems once again, old habits die hard…

-QUICK NOTE-

Given the time and hassle it took to set up the damn modding software, I have decided to use WOTC as my default output format and ONLY IF IN DEMAND, will I port a mod backwards to use in vanilla XCOM 2

-BUGS AND SUGGESTIONS-

If you manage to find any bugs or have a suggestion to improve my stuff, please do not hesitate to leave a comment, I enjoy reading through them 🙂
