Pun Soldiers CP (Base Game)

Description
Contains 105 lightly customized pun soldiers. If you don't like puns, this probably isn't for you.
-No required DLC, but CapnBubs Accessories were used and likely required to avoid errors.

War of the Chosen version here: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1135123226

"Cringe as everything bad that could happen hits Murphy Lawe;
Cry out as Mack Shotte misses that 100% shot;
Make car noises as Steve Walker sprints across the battlefield;
Laugh maniacly as Cate Astrophy sets off a destructive chain reaction;
Hold your breathe as Brick Wall tries to live up to his name;"
You get the idea by now... just adding some light-hearted fun.
(....and possibly saving your friends' lives...)

These soldiers' names sound out words or phrases in English, with some being better quality than others. I have strived to name them as closely to actual names as possible, although several have partially fictitious names. Additionally, some of the puns could be considered stretches. However, I am pleased with the overall results, especially the ones that are combinations of actual names. Some of the soldiers are also references to characters in other movies or games, and are generally signified by having a preset nickname.

I should note that I am unfamiliar with other languages' names, and so the majority of soldiers are from the US and other English-speaking countries. (If that is a concern, I recomend adding in some custom soldiers from various nations along side this)


Of course, you can edit and customize these soldiers to your liking after importing, creating your own versions of them.
Additionally, it will not override anything in the character pool, so you can combine multiple character packs.
-If by chance you want to publish your own version, I'd appreciate being given credit for the original work. :)

I hope you enjoy these soldiers as much as I enjoyed thinking up their names!

To "install":
-hit subscribe
-make sure the mod selection box is filled when launching
-go to Character Pool from the main menu
-select "import character"
-select "Pun Soldiers" (there may be a small hitch due to the number)
-hit "import entire selection" or specify the ones you want
-hit "import" and you're done!

Special Thanks to:

-PinkElephant for the CP uploading tutorial
-CapnBubs for the great accessories pack
-XCOM 2 developers for supporting mods
-Family and friends for bouncing ideas off of

Just the casual Gears of War references in there.

Thanks! :) I don't have the base XCOM 2 SDK installed anymore due to hardrive space, so I won't be directly updating this version. I'll keep the "Pun directory" updated with any new names however, so they can be added manually. If it stops working due to an update or some such though, I'll try to redownload it, (I doubt that happens due to the nature of the mod, but who knows).
