@leman42x Sorry man, I sort of gave up on XCOM. Not that the game is bad, just the opposite in that I played it so much I'm kind of sick of it.

I don't think I'd have the patience to re-create all the Gallian characters over one by one.

Could you up date for War of the Chosen please?

This CP would go very well with this mod

I didn't get the dlc yet (short on cash) but it's just a character pool with no mods in it. I sort of assumed it would still work just fine?

Will there be updates for WOTC? <3

Sorry guys, but I've no plans for making voice packs to compliment this.

Not that it'd be a bad idea, but making voicepacks is just so, so, soooooo *boring*. Endless hours of dragging files and re-listening them and testing and repeating and repeating and repeating, and that's just for a single voice.

If I were to make a voice for each of the different characters, then by the gods I'd lose my mind.

So ya, I take my hat off for people who do voicepacks on a regular basis, but it's just not for me, y'know.

Oh yeah, with a voice pack, this mood will pass from super awsome to extra-super-extrem-2000 awsome ;)

I want a voice pack with some of the Japanese voicovers from the game so I can have my Japanese soldiers speak Nipponese!

Took me three days. Not full days, of course, but, huh, about 6 hours total I think.
TheRyderShotgun 17 Apr, 2016 @ 5:23am 
oh, man, exactly how long did it take you to make all of these guys? ive been chipping away at them for quite a while now and ive still got 33 more people to go.
TheRyderShotgun 15 Apr, 2016 @ 4:08pm 
personally i find spinning their bios pretty interesting, the part where i actually write them anyway, i pull out an ipad to look up their stories on the wiki, too, and xcom doesnt crash for me, so maybe ill end up doing it myself anyway. want the pool after im done?
Havelock Vetinari  [author] 15 Apr, 2016 @ 11:26am 
@TheRyderShotgun

Sorry, I probably won't end up doing that :/ Writing the bios was by far and large the most boring part of making the pool (I too forgot most of the character, so I had to go looking up each individual bio on google)

Plus XCOM 2 is crashing everytime I load a game, so I'm kind of pissed with it right now.
TheRyderShotgun 13 Apr, 2016 @ 7:27am 
I have a minor request, can you make a seperate pool that, basically, pretends Gallia, The Empire and The Federation were actual places, and they fought a war as seen in Valk Chron, with some minor tweaks so the people who died along the way didn't, and the alien invasion happened right after it was concluded, in their bios.

for example, this is my version of Alicia
"At the beginning of the Second Europan War, Alicia was a baker's assistant, an aspiring baker herself, and a member of the Bruhl Town Watch; at the end of it, she was a Valkyria, goddess of war, a hardened member of the Gallian Millitia, and love of her squad commander Welkin Gunther.

She joined XCOM in hopes of finding her love seperated from her during their retreat following the alien invasion and free the world from the alien's iron grip"

something like that.
i'd write them myself, but, as i'm shamed to admit, i kinda forgotten the stories of every character outside of Alicia, Welkin, Largo, Rosie and Isara.
TheRyderShotgun 12 Apr, 2016 @ 7:57pm 
yeah, i got it to work. for some reason the first time i started the game the pool wasnt showing up. its fine now.
Havelock Vetinari  [author] 12 Apr, 2016 @ 10:21am 
@TheRyderShotgun you'll also have to go to the charcter pool and click the "import character" buttom at the bottom of it
TheRyderShotgun 12 Apr, 2016 @ 8:40am 
all i have to do is press the subscribe button and activate the mod on startup, right? just in case its not a problem on my end

BADASS :steamhappy:
Commander789 25 Mar, 2016 @ 4:08pm 
I love it! Also, have you tried using the MEC Voice Pack on Selvaria? It makes her sound like she's in her Valkyrur form!
Perogi Palooka 23 Mar, 2016 @ 9:39am 
@VS7 Do you mind sharing that when you're done? Insterested to see how differently people interpret Reila and Imca.
Havelock Vetinari  [author] 23 Mar, 2016 @ 6:46am 
@Valk Thanks! I'll update the pool to include your flag as soon as I can

@VS7 good to hear! I never played to other games, and I'd love to have some extra guys as well
SaberVS7 23 Mar, 2016 @ 1:07am 
Of course I notice this just as I'm working on my own VC character pool.

Jokes on you though, because I'm going for a full series character pool, including Azure Revolution.

As promised, a flag pack for all your "overthrowing Ayydolf Schmidtler" needs.
Havelock Vetinari  [author] 22 Mar, 2016 @ 4:18am 
I guess that's destiny to you.
Shinji117 22 Mar, 2016 @ 4:10am 
Jesus Christ, did you do something to the AI and Isara? Like, make her have the priority of a mimic beacon or something? Every mission she's been brought on, every enemy who has survived long enough to shoot has gone for Isara. I even had Gregor stand flanked against a wall (a la firing squad) and the enemy still went after full cover Isara.

I'd be horrified if it weren't so funny.
Havelock Vetinari  [author] 22 Mar, 2016 @ 3:03am 
@Haghog
I only put the class as a requiremente because the pool sets the scouts from the game as "Rogues" by default. I think it should work just fine without it - they just would be defaulted to another class. If there's any problem on your end, I could always re-set everyone to be rookies.
Or, wait, are you unable to download it? It didn't occur to me that Steam would forbid people from downloading the mod due to requirements.


@TheRyderShotgun
See my answer for the Haghog. If the pool doesn't work for you without the class, I'll fix it as soon as I can.


@Valk
I would love it! Would have done it myself if I knew how to, really.
TheRyderShotgun 21 Mar, 2016 @ 11:41pm 
Also, I prefer to not need modded classes for this one, though I guess it's not exactly mandatory for character pool guys
TheRyderShotgun 21 Mar, 2016 @ 11:38pm 
So it, Valk! I personally made Welkin, Alicia, Rosie, Largo and Isara, and I wanted to make everyone, but I didn't have the patience to do it, so thanks! The uniform manager'll come in handy now if the uniforms are not to my liking.
Valk 21 Mar, 2016 @ 10:42pm 
You want a flag/nationality mod to go with this? God knows I'm deep enough in Valkyria Chronicles hell that I can set aside an hour to get it done tomorrow.
The Peasant 21 Mar, 2016 @ 8:30pm 
Really nice, mixing my 2 favorite permadeath games!
Haghog 21 Mar, 2016 @ 8:00pm 
Are you able to make a version which doesn't require the extra class mod? I'd rather avoid playing with any but stil have the characters
xf100t 21 Mar, 2016 @ 6:13pm 
Nice work.
Perogi Palooka 21 Mar, 2016 @ 4:14pm 
Now we need voice mods and we'd be set.
Cynath 21 Mar, 2016 @ 3:39pm 
cool, thanks man!
Havelock Vetinari  [author] 21 Mar, 2016 @ 1:27pm 
@backrow It's the MGS4 Frog Trooper outfit. You can find the link to it on the right side of the page.

Honestly the highest quality armor mod out there, IMO. And not just because of dem thighs.
Cynath 21 Mar, 2016 @ 1:04pm 
nice! was just playing some VC last night. what's this cool armour Selvaria is wearing?
rio 21 Mar, 2016 @ 12:03pm 
I'd download one for the sequel
Havelock Vetinari  [author] 21 Mar, 2016 @ 11:10am 
Example screenshots of a few characters uploaded.
BE02-Raziel 21 Mar, 2016 @ 10:52am 
Now only if there were voice packs for them...
Sgt.Parker 21 Mar, 2016 @ 10:33am 
Sounds intresting but would be nice to see some of thay pics like how thay look and small bit of thay storys.
Ser Lancelot 21 Mar, 2016 @ 10:26am 
Nice! One of my favorite games. However, pics of characters?
