[WOTC] Land Reinforcements

Description
Adds ADVENT reinforcements coming from roads connecting to the map

How it works
ADVENT blew all their air support budget for the year, so by default there is a 50% chance a reinforcement group that would come with the airship will arrive on land instead. That land troop transport will spawn at a connecting road closest to XCOM squad.

Includes 3 new cutscenes:
  • Arrival with Van
  • Arrival with APC
  • Arrival on Foot
which support 3 MECs, 6 ADVENT humanoids, for total of 6 units in a cutscene

All packages are cooked, if you want uncooked files you can get them here[github.com]

Compatibility
Works on plots that have periphery road parcels in them (all of outdoor vanilla maps), modded maps work as long as they have those parcels included
Works with modded enemies (humanoids and MECs) that can arrive with the dropship
Should be OK to add to an existing campaign

I have to say, this is an impressively clever mod in how it fits into the game. Feels just like an 'obvious' part of what should have been in the base game but was somehow forgotten.

Very well done!

This is insane, and these animations are so smooth! You've got one good modding career ahead of you.

@Vaultwulf It should work with that, and if the map has no periphery road parcels reinforcements will drop normally with the dropship

Will this work with something like Universal Enemy Compatibility Patch and if a modded map does not have a periphery road parcel will reinforcements work normally?

BTW... those cuts scenes are very cool! What a great concept this is! :steamthumbsup: :steamthis:

Had a VERY cool reinforcement thing happen. Was playing a modded mission to hold out for a few waves in an Advent City. Had multiple Advent flairs pop and then had really great mixed reinforcements come in. Air Transport dropped in a Captain and 3 troopers. Then the next flair brought in a armored ground transport from behind me on the road where an Advent Bio Captain and 2 heavy Bio Assault Troopers get out to flank me. WAS SUPER COOL! These are the types of mods that you never expect to make the game feels very fresh again. Coming from a guy that has been modding this game for years... THANK YOU!!!

The spawn change got me by surprise, they can come behind your troops if theres a road. Really a nice surprise, now you will never be sure where they will come.
