[WotC] Trooper Class

A 'generic soldier' class for XCOM 2 WotC that can make use of assault rifles, bullpups, vektor rifles in the main hand, and pistols or shields as secondary, as well as additional underbarrel grenades if you also subscribe to Iridar's underebarrel weapons mod.

The class is flexible, able to be equipped for the mission at hand - the durability of the shield or the Lost busting capability of the pistol. The accuracy at range of the Vektor or the close assault firepower of the bullpup. The choice is yours, Commander.

There have been many 'basic soldier' offerings on the mod workshop, but I have never really liked any of them, they usually had too much health, or too many attacks, or just something that I didint like. So I thought it was high time I created my own generic soldier mod that I wouldnt like. I hope you enjoy it.

As far as I know, the class works fine if you have not installed Iridar's mod for the underbarrel grenade launcher. You do require the balistics shield mod however, and be aware that the vektor rifle can not be equipped with the shield.

This class has no GTS perk, as I dont know how to get that to work. I make no warranty abut the bugginess or otherwise of this class. I am not a good enough modder for such things.

Thanks to all the good folk of the XCOM modding community for answering my cries for help.
