[WOTC] Iridar's Armor Overhaul 2.0

This mod makes armor grant Ablative HP instead of normal HP.

• Ablative HP is displayed as an orange bar above soldier's health bar.
  
• Taking damage to Ablative HP does not wound the soldier, but Ablative HP normally cannot be restored during a mission.
  
• Poison and Fall damage bypass Ablative HP and damage soldiers' health directly.
  
• Armor can be shredded even if the attack dealt only Ablative HP damage.
  
• When playing with Beta Strike second wave option, Ablative HP bonus is increased as if it was health.

Additionally, this mod smooths the armor upgrade progression by making armor upgrades weaker and cheaper, but also adding six additional Ablative Plating upgrades. Each upgrade provides a cumulative bonus of +1 Ablative HP to all armors.



The number of purchased upgrades is displayed on the armor icons by overlaying a shield icon with one or several chevrons. The total amount of Ablative HP granted by all your upgrades is displayed in the Armory on the right. See screenshots for more context.

The first couple of Ablative Plating upgrades can be purchased before researching Plated Armor, providing a much needed survivability boost during the early game, and also making techs other than Magnetic Weapons worth pursuing.


The overall goal of this mod is to make the increases in survivability of your soldiers more granular. Purchasing Predator Armor upgrade in vanilla nearly doubles your soldiers' health, making Tactical layer less challenging and less interesting.

With this mod, the total amount of bonus survivability you get from armor is larger compared to vanilla, but you also have to invest more resources if you want additional bonuses.


X2 WOTC Community Highlander v1.21 or higher is required.

Does not require a new campaign.


Out of the box, the mod is compatible with all Vanilla and DLC Armors, including SPARK Armor, as well as mod-added Armors that use the vanilla passive abilities for their stat bonuses.

In adition to that, the mod includes explicit support for these mod-added armors:

• Heavy And Light Kevlar Armors
  
• WotC] EU Psi Armor
  
• [WOTC] Playable Titan Armor
  
• [WoTC] Custodian Pack / [WoTC] Standalone Metion BattleSuit
  
• [WOTC] The Hive
  
• [WOTC] Prototype Armoury
  
• Cerberus Trooper
  
• Cerberus Centurion
  
• Cerberus Phantom
  
• Cerberus Engineer
  
• Cerberus Nemesis
  
• Cerberus Guardian
  
• CAT6 Sniper
  
• CAT6 Heavy
  
• CAT6 Specialist
  
• [WOTC] Superheavy Battlesuits
  
• [WOTC] Warhammer 40,000: Armours of the Imperium
  
• [WOTC] ADVENT Armor: Reverse-Engineering
  
• PROJECT EXVENT: Playable ADVENT Soldiers [v2.1]

All other Armors will not be affected by this mod, meaning they will still provide their full HP bonus and will not grant Ablative HP.

[WOTC] Iridar's Vest and Plating Overhaul (previously known as Defensive Items Overhaul) - compatible, but using both of them together will make your soldiers rather tanky.


The mod is entirely configurable through various configuration files in:

You can add more upgrade tiers, I have left some instructions for that in ReadMe.txt.
The only limitation is that if the total bonus is larger than 20 points, it will still be displayed in the armory on the right as only 20 points. I can potentially increase this limit if it becomes an actual issue for someone.
You can also replace the Ablative HP bonus with regular HP, if you wish.
