I personally recommend countries in Europe, Asia or NA. With these difference, choosing any country at the start affects your panic-dealing strategy less than Vanilla. And continent bonus is not offered at the outset.

Note that alien abductions occurs one country, not offering selection between three countries as in Vanilla. Some bonus offer juicy effect that you can never achive later, like Patriae Semper Vigilis in Agentina. Are you happy if you have choice of Tandem instead of Sprinter, and if an overwatcher doesn't have choice of opportunist? TR also disable stats bonuses attached with some perks, that is a big downside. Ability trees in LW is complicated so that if you turn on TR, possibly end up with being just messy.

This helps you to feel your squad more tactical and neat during missions, but above all this could help you deal with some special missions such as Friends In Low Places. This rule should remain until the time you would have squid size expansions in OTS without WeAreLegion.

To keep decent game balance, the two additional members are supposed to support troops, they are supposed to bring supporting equipments such as medikits, Motion Tracker, and HE grenades just for causing environmental damage, no-shooting, no-killing, Their other roles are to open a door or collecting melds. Note that, the effect of parameters are less than Vanilla XCOM in general Hidden Potential increace some paramaters slightly but decrease the other parameters in same degrees at the same time, for instance.īe careful that WeAreLegion just expand your squadsize by two from the outset.

You may have to install it before starting new campaing. Impossible of "Easy levels" is said to be easier than Normal in plain LW. Line-up of "Easy levels" might be equal (or close) difficulties as in Vanilla. "Normal" in LW are definitely harder than classic or even impossible in Vanilla, mostly due to air-management and increased number of missions.įor players who want to play with lesser effort, LW support additional "Easy levels" since Beta 15e. You can change difficulty while you are playing. "Normal" difficulty is recommended for your first playthrough, and even for the second or later.
