Great mod, but the small bug where it uses human soldier animations instead of MEC ones during reinforcement cutscenes is a bit uncanny. Would this be a fix in the config or more than that?

@mayrenise123
They start appearing at FL18, spawn weight is about the same as an ADVENT Trooper. More enemy-adding mods will decrease the chance though

what Force Level can I expect these guys? and how common would you see them throughout the entire campaign?

would you consider moving the gatling cannon to the other shoulder so it doesn't clip with the shotgun during the animation? thx great mod

Had this mod for ages and it never spawned in until an avenger defence mission on a campaign I was getting my ass kicked on. FIrst pod was lead by it, wiped pretty much everyone. Credits rolled. 10/10

@shroseman
Use something that works instead of 2K's effort: https://github.com/X2CommunityCore/xcom2-launcher/wiki/Installation

I subscribed to the mod, but I don't know why it doesn't appear in the mod management window.

This guy is a nightmare. I only saw him once and my ass ran to evac.

Looks like a Thunderbolt from Battletech.

can it work with full override so appear as a haven reward if you can hack it ?

the MEC it's invisible and broken using the Buidable Units mod, how i can fix it?

can we get the shoulder gatling for our own spark?

any way to turn off the no cover bonus? I guess since I only play on higher difficulties the thought of fighting one of these where every one of their shots is a flanking shot kind of deters me

in the mod manager what ifor the launcher what is this mod called?

Sorry Typo. can they be hacked?

Question. they be hacked? Like most of advents mechanical units.

MACROWAVE MEC!!!

This mod has a low humming noise whenever an assault mec is in the map. I have a subwoofer that I can't turn off... which means that I have to turn off the sound whenever an assault mec shows up, or the hum is so loud it's enough to make you deaf. It's just one of those tones that subwoofers pick up on and amplify. Hoping I can just delete the audio file, whatever it is.

soo, it works on a running campaign and was even able to use it's custom intro too! :D
I feel that my only complaint is that it doesn't have its' own corpse and/or tech to go with it, but I also fully understand why that is the case so I don't judge it too hard for that. (would be cool tho)

Having an issue where it doesn't spawn

how to force it through the console

Damn it intemidating af... wish only it had black or red paintjob akin to regular ADVENT troops (or elite MECs/ADVENT officers/rewamped General)

@flapjaw They use shotguns so it's not like they're unfightable.

So I just did an autopsy for one of these in an LWOTC campaign, the text said something about adapting similar shotguns for SPARKS and MEC Troopers but nothing was added. Do i need to also have mag weapons or is it simply ont a thing yet?

@william
They drop ADVENT Mec corpses.

is thier a autopsy option for the mech?

No problem!

thanks for that!

Yes, if you use Mod Jam.

will this work in lwotc?

@Don Willyon
Weird place to ask, but:

I just played Xcom for the first time in two years and now all my mods aren't working. How do I fix this?

If this didn't bypass cover bonuses I'd be all for it, but at least it looks cool.

Question if i want to add perks to this, should i add it in +EquivalentAbilities=

good

They spawn without guns for me and just run around doing nothing.

Does this come with their appearances for Sparks, or is that separate?

any way we can tweak the sound of this unit. it sounds like an old tv's white noise

ngl the vid/pic gives me a mix of zaku/leo and some hard sci-fi power suits. neat

what happens if you take it apart what item do you get

Yeah, this is better than the Sectopod and that gatlin gun perfect, looks like a Tony Stark creation.

Just modded these to appear from level 1, - all it takes to kill one is 6 grenades and 8 shots from my spark. The spark was killed by there second shot. Back to the drawing board!

Any chance you could do a lower-tier human enemy mod? I like the idea of MOCX but it's pretty buggy. Something like pods of ADVENT Loyalists that gradually scale.

I've also added support for these guys to my Buildable Units mod. Note that if you don't run Mod Jam, you'll need to do some config work (switching the required autopsy/corpse to a different one).

Blew up the droids, blew up the factory...nearly blew up the planet.

I'll give this a mod a go, I loved the Muton Harrier mod, so this'll be awesome ^_^

This mec is far better than the Sectopod....

How do these guys Rank difficulty wise? I'm hesitant to add enemies after a battle with an ethereal

@ubagon8 I just updated Mod Jam with support for this mod earlier today.

does this mod come with a spark shotgun to equip to your spark units
