Better Alien Ruler Rewards

Overhauls how Alien Ruler Rewards are implemented.

Hate how gaudy and out-of-place the Alien Ruler Armors look, but still want their fancy abilities? This mod replaces them with items that perform the same functions!

R.A.G.E Vest

• Utility Slot Item.
• Confers the Rage Strike ability.
• +2 HP.

Frost Hook

• Tactical Gadget Slot Item.
• Confers the Grapple and Frostbite abilities.

Icarus Jets

• Tactical Gadget Slot Item.
• Confers the Icarus Jump and Vault abilities.

This mod’s "XComBetterAlienRulerRewards" .ini configuration file allows you modify many aspects of these new items, including research time, costs, black market value, and enabled abilities.

• Any mods that change the Alien Ruler Armors will be made redundant, since you won’t be able to obtain them in normal play. Should otherwise be compatible w/ everything more-or-less.
• R.A.G.E Vest is compatible with WotC Vest Slot.

• None at the moment.

Visual only:

• Add unique research art.
• Have the Frost Hook and Icarus Jets show as 3D Models on the equipped soldier.
• Give the Frost Hook unique ice-themed grappling effects.

• Biography On Armory Screen
• Disable Old World Hero
• Heavy And Light Kevlar Armors
• Interchangeable Upgrades/PCS By Default
• XCOM Trinkets
• Remove TLP Items
• Better Hair Triggers
• Better Promotion Photos
• Tactical Gadget Slot

• Hot3looded for "Alien Ruler Accessories", which I used as a base, and research descriptions.
• nelVlesis for art assets.
• RustyDios for helping me address the Pending Game State issue.
