does this work with amalgamations?

@Joe
Then do you actually need to install it?
Joe 4 May @ 9:49am 
I don't understand a single thing of what this mod do.

@Just Monika: No, no WOTC-mods work without WOTC....or shouldn't actually no 100% sure on voi. Anyway, here's the non-WOTC version: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=684929720
Just Monika 28 Feb @ 8:38pm 
Does this work if I don't have WOTC?
Matikanefukukitaru 13 Feb @ 8:15pm 
@GrimFantasma: This mod still works for me, did you delete your configs? Fresh install won't delete these, and mods tend to write stuff into them, some of which might have something leftover preventing it from working properly.
GrimFantasma 13 Feb @ 2:30pm 
Fresh install with no other mods, this mod doesn't work. Starting soldiers assigned classes that don't correspond with their saves. Actions in pinned discussion have no effect

updated, ill re-set soldier classes in the pool, after that in the new campaign soldiers started dropping everything in a row (normal behavior), apparently from the previous version of LWOTC (in which the pool was created), there were some changes due to which some soldiers did not drop into the roster

@mayrenise123
yes, it works, but for me personally:
-sometimes soldiers generated from scratch slip through
-not from the entire list of soldiers fall into recruitment ~90% (specifically in lwotc), perhaps there is a conflict with another mod
but overall the mod works in lwotc (now v1.2.0)
mayrenise123 17 Dec, 2024 @ 12:14pm 
does this mod work with Lwotc??
Epic Dovahkiin 22 Sep, 2024 @ 7:57am 
too bad this doesn't work with faction heroes it's so annoying when i have a standard reaper set in the pool and they end up being a reaper scythe
Dragon32 1 Feb, 2024 @ 11:16am 
@Kodaxmax
Oh, I understand. I guess as long as the original Character Pool class isn't completely disabled in your current campaign it'd work.
Kodaxmax 31 Jan, 2024 @ 10:55pm 
It does actually seem to work with RPGO.
Kodaxmax 31 Jan, 2024 @ 8:45pm 
Yes, i was wondering if this would still be able to force a chosen class, as they are still active in RPGO, but you obviously cant pick them.
anyway, i tried it yesterday and i think the answer is no. Which is to be expected. But a modder can dream.
Dragon32 31 Jan, 2024 @ 11:03am 
@Kodaxmax
All RPGO soldiers are the same class though.
Kodaxmax 30 Jan, 2024 @ 11:52pm 
does this work with RPGO?

@Beach Head B82
Have you read the pinned Discussion?
Beach Head B82 25 Jun, 2022 @ 7:32pm 
Man I'm sorry I can't get this to work to save my life. My guys are everything but what I want them too be (or need in many cases, so frustrating)
Leilani 23 Mar, 2022 @ 11:38pm 
Thank you for the clear instructions on how to check for the conflicts
Andrew 22 Mar, 2022 @ 9:30am 
This does not work with https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1136133582

The mod I listed allows you to fabricate HK-47, HK-51 and HK-55, they are built as a Squaddie. They are pulled from your character pool but it does not honor your selected class. I was hoping that this mod would lock the class but it does not.
Lachigan 19 Mar, 2022 @ 8:32am 
Yeah the problem is probably on my side, I don't know what happened, but if anyone else has trouble getting this mod to work I recommend trying the mod "Commander's Choice", more or less does the same thing
Dragon32 19 Mar, 2022 @ 8:13am 
@Lachigan
This mod's not changed since 2017 (see the top right)

Lachigan 19 Mar, 2022 @ 7:39am 
What changed? I was using this mod last week without any problem and now it doesn't work in my new campaign, I haven't added or removed any other mod, I tried deleting and recreating all my custom characters, with mods both enabled and disabled, I tried everything I could think of, played the intro mission 5 times now and every time the class promotions are random
krj12 (Ken)  [author] 7 Mar, 2022 @ 2:25pm 
yes. the "View as Soldier Class"
Malefic 7 Mar, 2022 @ 2:11pm 
when you say "assign" where is the option supposed to be? is it the "view as" bit?
Corporal_Jay 2 Jan, 2022 @ 5:25am 
@Dragon32: Cool, glad I was able to explain, take care now.
Dragon32 2 Jan, 2022 @ 5:23am 
@Dragon32
OK, I understand now. Thanks.
Corporal_Jay 2 Jan, 2022 @ 5:14am 
@Dragon32: What I mean by that is that the game tends to try to make sure you've gotten one of each class with your first promotion so that it can give you the tutorial on those classes (and to keep a balance of the classes too...).

However, in my comment I had forgotten that it just keeps trying to keep the number of classes on units balanced even after the first of each class (ie The game will try to give you the same amount of Sharpshooters as any other class and same, pretty sure at least, as any other class)


Sorry for the long explanation, but if it is not understandable I can try to explain it better.
Dragon32 2 Jan, 2022 @ 3:30am 
@Corporal_Jay
What are "first troops"?
Corporal_Jay 1 Jan, 2022 @ 9:29pm 
Does it not work on first troops?
BroncoXeno2035 21 Nov, 2021 @ 6:23pm 
How does this work with All soldiers gain XP for rookies promoting while also using Commander's Choice?
Wolfnyr_OctoDude 8 Nov, 2021 @ 6:49am 
It was 25+ clone army classes mod
krj12 (Ken)  [author] 8 Nov, 2021 @ 5:04am 
not sure i understand, if you train someone in the psi lab, they're either already a psi or will become one after they learn the first skill.
Wolfnyr_OctoDude 7 Nov, 2021 @ 9:06pm 
How do you set them as a Psi operative in the pool?
I did sub to bad batch mod collection and no matter how much I train them in psi lab the game just choose other class randomly
krj12 (Ken)  [author] 7 Nov, 2021 @ 4:08pm 
No, just set them as a Psi operative in the pool. You just cant train them up until you get the Psi lab.
Wolfnyr_OctoDude 7 Nov, 2021 @ 10:41am 
So in order for me to get Psi operative I have to:
1. Get a psi lab
2. Name the rookie as Psi (first name) operative (last name) (or just Psi operative in last or first name?)
3. Then train them in psi lab?
BottomScorer 1 Oct, 2021 @ 2:16pm 
Please add new Steam tag "War of the Chosen" here.
Brynhildr 15 Sep, 2021 @ 11:12am 
does this mean if you set them as one of the hero classes, they will be the ones who appear when you get your second wave (1st if templar) of heroes?
Raflesia 12 Sep, 2021 @ 4:19am 
I love this mod, I just started using it and it works well, with the Steam launcher. I am on a Mac and so far no problems. I have few other mods, so let us see. Thanks a million!
FeeL 21 Aug, 2021 @ 5:11am 
Hey guys, I need some help, looks like mod is working fine for me, but i have problems when choosing class in character pool cuz it duplicates with like original classes....like there is two choises of ranger and specialist and i cant figure out wich one is correct cuz if i chose old one that class apears fucked up with wrong skills or even without them
Saber The ODST 18 Aug, 2021 @ 7:19am 
I'm experiencing the same thing, I have a majority of my character pool to use specific classes I chose for them, and it doesn't work.
RozeBomb 9 Aug, 2021 @ 2:27am 
So, IDK about anyone else, but this mod doesn't appear to be working anymore. It worked perfectly fine for a good long while, then it just...stopped working. Dunno why.
Dragon32 26 Apr, 2021 @ 4:45am 
@Peacemaker
A mod's unique ID is part of its Workshop URL - the id=1125727531 part
PeaceMaker 26 Apr, 2021 @ 3:33am 
By the way what is the ID of this mod?
PeaceMaker 26 Apr, 2021 @ 2:59am 
THANKYOU! Not being able to choose what class I want for my perfect team at the start has always bugged me.Until finally, I asked about and people led me here. Thanks.
Tamomomma 18 Feb, 2021 @ 6:36pm 
You can always use Commander's Choice for those really specific ones if they're still rookies.
krj12 (Ken)  [author] 18 Feb, 2021 @ 5:42am 
I think their intent was to give you a balance of unit types from the start. I don't think it ever occurred to them that the players would want character pool units assigned to specific unit types.
General Jack Ripper 17 Feb, 2021 @ 6:42am 
You would think the vanilla game would work this way.
Shaggoth (Ищезаяц) 1 Feb, 2021 @ 2:13pm 
looks like sometimes it fails. one soldier was promoted to biotic as expected, and then another preconfigured also as biotic, was promoted to sharpshooter
Dragon32 2 Oct, 2020 @ 6:17am 
@SirPrimrose
If that's "All Soldiers Gain XP - WotC" then try disabling its 'units can level up outside of missions' option
