Features
This specialization pack adds 4 additional specializations from James’s awesome TacFor Class Pack to Musashi’s absolutely fantastic mod RPG Overhaul. These specializations contain 28 perks from the TacFor classes, Long War 2, and the base game which were not previously available in RPG Overhaul.
The classes from the original mod had many more perks at their disposal than the ones that are contained in this mod. However, these other perks are either already part of the base RPGO specializations or available in other plugin mods for RPG Overhaul. This means that the specializations in this pack should not be treated as complete classes. They are meant to be combined with others to create new and powerful builds.

Known issues
- Some people have had problems when installing new RPG Overhaul plugins and adding them to existing campaigns, so do this at your own risk. To make sure the perk trees are updated correctly, I highly recommend using shiremct’s mod [WOTC] Additional Soldier Console Commands. To rebuild your soldier’s perk trees with this mod, go into their armory screen and use the console command "RebuildSelectedSoldiersClass" to refresh the perks and keep the soldier’s rank the same.
