Necromancer Class

War of the Chosen version available here:

(You can subscribe to it in the middle of your campaign with no ill effects)

New class with custom magic skills. Sorcerer and Necromancer (and Shaman if you use LongWar2) skill trees.

Lore: The demonstration of Psionics by some X-Com agents during the first alien invasion has convinced some people that supernatural abilities do exist. This resulted in renewed faith in the ancient magical studies of Earth. With the combination of ancient lore and the PsiAmps used by the original X-Com 20 years ago, the Necromancers have developed some very real magical abilities.

The class levels up like a normal soldier through missions. No need for a psi lab.

– Colonel: Insect Swarm: The Shaman summons a vicious swarm of insects to sting and bite the target. They go for the eyes or any opening in the armor and burrow into the flesh. Deals 2HP damage per turn and distracts the target so they can barely aim or move. (-50 aim, -10 defense, -10 dodge, -7 move speed. Hey, it’s Colonel level!)
