Awesome mod.

That being said, anyone wanting to try it, beware of the spawn point of the reinforcement. It's now a little bit more difficult.

This was an S tier mod. Then I saw the cutscene that uh, isn't showcased here. The hidden one. This is now an S+ tier mod.

@Eyesight Only ADVENT and MECs, alien reinforcements usually arrive with a psi-gate

That look really nice !
Does this include aliens or only advent unit?

Can confirm it works in LWOTC. Seen all three cutscenes with no issues, including some mod maps where roads are present. Great mod.

This is something I often wished was a feature in the base game. Thank you!

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.

This is so cool. Well done!

this mod goes sooo hard especially with modded unit , this aint leaving my load order

@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!

I love this

so goooooood

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.

holy shit, this is awesome

This looks really cool!

Can confirm that nothing LWotC did to the game prevents this mod from working. Just got a tank reinforcement with a MEC chasing it. Phenomenal stuff!

@Zoinho1 Location of the reinforcement spawner is changed the edge of the map where the road connecting to the map is

Fucking amazing. It's kind of "cosmetic", right? It won't change anything in gameplay.

This looks incredible. Instant sub for me too.

damn...
just dayum

It was humorous watching Advent walking in on a road into a City Center mission.

Yooooo, mod went too hard duuudeeeee

Well done. Instant sub.

This is really well done. The lack of working land vehicles was really noticeable in vanilla.

Fantastic mod

Woah

This is great. Good work yo.

This is one of those mods that you'll install and forget that it's not part of the base game.

Excellent work.

I hope you do more of these because they are incredible.

This is sick

Ooo that is actually cool, I always wondered why this wasn't in the base game.

@Furu… I would absolutely love to see a few animations for Lost when new pods show up. Rather than just the puff of smoke and they are there.

"oh my god im in LOVE!"

>[WOTC] Land Reinforcements in nine months 🤰

this should of been in the game, oh my god im in LOVE!

Will we be able to do this soon? Kinda funny we can just fly a ship into a public city and not have all of Advent on our asses

it works in LWOTC (in a existing save), so far I saw 1 cutscene with 2 LWOTC troopers and 1 shieldbearer arriving on foot on a supply mission.
Really hope to see some custom cutscenes for XCOM too.

This is amazing, I've always wondered why there wasn't many animation mods all the way back when the drone animation was first introduced; One small thing I'd like to mention is regarding the arrival on foot, I think the camera should be around the sides or editing the one from the back to slowly be moving up to capture the entire column as they come in.

awesome idea

This right here is a new must-have for my load order

This is never leaving my load order! thank you very much for this wonderful mod!

This is absolutely sick!!! Immediately A tier:)

@clw6 It should be safe to add to an existing campaign

This is class A+ content. Great job!

Presumably this is safe to install mid campaign? Provided you load a save on the Avenger. Don't see why it shouldn't be. What a great idea this is.

Props to ADVENT drivers for strictly following the traffic rules.

Alright all I needed to hear,subbing,thanks for that!

@Soul It defaults to a dropship cutscene when it can't find a place to put a land transport cutscene to. There's a config variable for a chance to switch a dropship arrival to a land transport, by default its 50%

Just to know a bit more about the modded maps,if you know ofc,if theres no periphery road parcel,will it default to a dropship cutscene then or just bug out?
Also is there something that determine if its a road drop or air drop? Like a % chance maybe?
