[LWotC] Jeow’s Infantry Classes

1.) This mod REMOVES the 9 Soldier Classes in LWotC from the pool of Classes that are available for rookies to promote into. This should not affect soldiers who are already one of the LWotC classes, but it will mean no new soldiers will be promoted into normal LWotC classes until you uninstall this mod. If you’d still like to play with the original LWOTC Classes as well as mine; instructions are below in their own section.
2.) Install all required mods or this mod WILL NOT FUNCTION.
3.) This is my first mod. Any feedback is welcome and appreciated.

Jeow’s Infantry Classes mod replaces the Soldier Classes from LWotC with 5 Soldier Classes. Each has powerful skill trees that offer 15 main sub-archetypes (3 per soldier class). Each Specialization is intended to be followed relatively closely to maximize effect. The Specialization name indicates the kind of tactics should be capitalized on.

• 5x New Classes
• Stat Progression changes to suit each class
• Renames Ranks for each new class
• Officer Abilities included in Team Leader class

1.)LWotC
Majority of perks and systems are from LWOTC

2.) XCOM2: War of the Chosen DLC
Needed for LWotC

3.) All REQUIRED ITEMS for LWotC
I’ve added them to the REQURIED ITEMS list –>

Choose My Class
I highly recommend using this mod to ensure you don’t get multiple unwanted Team Leaders within the same squad. Part the fun of my mod is to pick your Soldiers Classes and build them how you think is best!

LWOTC uses code in their XComClassData.ini to remove the Vanilla Soldier Classes from showing up in the game as you Promote Soldiers. This mod does the same thing to the LWOTC Soldier Classes and is easily reverted if you’d like to use their classes too! Open the XComClassData.ini within this mod folder. Then follow the instructions under "LWOTC CLASS REMOVAL BLOCK START"

This mod is built off the LWotC mod and I’d like to tip the hat to the amazing work by their team. Truly inspired me to start coding, reading their work was very clear and intuitive for someone who is not well-practised in coding and I was impresside!

I’d like to thank L0rdr4t, Venator, Tedster, inukealot, Copyrite, Iridar and Zelfana for helping me to understand the process and produce my first mod. Your insight was invaluable.

A replacement for the Officer system provided in LWOTC, the Team Leader provides a range of benefits, buffs and aura’s to nearby friendly soldiers and is meant to be a less-violently-active force on the battlefield, but still has the capacity to deeply effect the flow of battle. Rank Names do no match certain Research, Upgrade and Mission requirements, but the Team Leader’s actual soldier level requirement is still met, so don’t fret if something requires a "Major", it just means it requires a Corporal (Normal Soldiers) or Master Gunnery Sergeant (Team Leader).

Specializations:

• Objective
• Offensive
• Defensive
• Tactics

The Rifleman is the bread-and-butter of the XCOM fighting force; a true grunt with the ability to specialize in either full-frontal assaulting, marksmanship or rendering medical aid. Essentially serves as 3 classes in one and will likely make up the majority of any fighting force.

Specializations:

• Assaulter
• Marksman
• Corpsman
• Grit

The Force Recon unit is ideal for covert operations, reconnaissance and sniping. Stealth, accuracy and raw-damage-output are the main tools at the Force Recon unit’s disposal.

Specializations:

• Sniper
• Spotter
• Scout
• Discipline

The Fire Support soldier is inflexible in equipment, but extremely flexible in battle tactics; either focussing on raw-firepower, exploiting flanks, or locking down the enemy under punishing supression and overwatch.

Specializations:

• Gunnery
• Flanking
• Fire Support
• Doctrine

The Combat Engineers express their flexibility through their equipment, having a wide rage of secondary equipment at their disposal. Explosives and close-quarters tactics are how they deal with their adversaries.

Specializations:

• Breacher
• Grenadier
• Demolitions
• Zeal
