LWOTC? I need this version or LW2?

Thanks for making WOTC compatible!

Finally updated a WOTC version. There was more to change than i thought. Thanks for being so patient. Merry Christmas!

@bot/Ai MP hater: SRY to say, but then stopping to use mods would be very advisable, unless you stop being a crybaby and just TRY to learn it at least...google the stuff Arkhangel said, one of them is a Steam-Functionality(the verification).

even if u say dat im sucker with files,caches and dat so yeah im not aproud of it but unforetanately
its who i am and my f***ing knowledge and brain

@Bot: you know, might wanna try two basic things before you freak out like that. clear your Cache, and Verify Your Game. both are something you should do every time you download a mod, and every time you remove one.

hello i am not sure how i can help you, but this mod is not compatible with WOTC. See the troubleshooting guide. There are useful informations for mod conflicts.

i downloaded lots of mods and when i tried launching it kept saying the same crash msg and then i tried removing the mods i thought wer the cause,when i finally have the remaining mods i used bfore the lots of mods downloaded it stil giving the same bullcrap only by deselecting all the wotc mods was i able 2 launch the game,i xit selected my usual mods and it gave me the same shit so i finally decided 2 uninstal and then installing it again if this doesnt work goodbye wotc 4 the rest of my life!

new campaign?

@Acorns: he literally just said he's working on it. be patient.

WOTC version?

Great to hear you are updating it. Still no front line classes, and I am sorely missing them for bigger squad sizes and enemy amounts to take fire.

He Phantom, I will be super happy to have some Tank class for my next WotC play, whenever that should be. I greatly enjoyed it in LW2. Thanks for working toward update!

Thanks, glad you're confirming that. Looking forward to what updates this version will get along with the WotC-version being made.

Dont worry i will not delete this :D I make a WOTC version yes and on my way doing it i can update this version too.

@Phantom: I don't think you'll do it, but you're not gonna kill this old version with doing that, yes? In other words, will you upload the WotC-version as different mod?

Yes i will update but do not expect it in the next days.

Update for WOTC?

does this class work with other secondary weaponry

Hello! New LW2 tank class version is out. Have Fun!

thanks added the lines!

@frizzeldian:
i try to change this by default for my next update but this may take longer. in the meantime you can do it yourself. Add these lines to the config file from tactical rigging.

+AbilityUnlocksGrenadePocket=TankProtectionProtocol ; Tank Grenade
+AbilityUnlocksAmmoPocket=TankProtectionProtocol ; Tank Ammo

@dragonus: thanks for the report thats currently broken you will only get the hack bonus not the ability. I try to fix in the next update thanks

will you please make this compatible with tactical rigging?? THanks

Uhm...I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong here but the Haywire Protocal is not doing anything. Twice now, I've tried to hack a MEC and nothing happens. No animation, nothing happening in the background to tell me if it failed or anything; it just puts the ability on cooldown...Is that not working? Oh, I just noticed the Bug Report board...let me check that...

do not use this mod together with the LW Tank class. (choose from one)

yes but you will only get two perks per rank (this is for players who play without long war). i recommend you my Long war version you can find the link in description or workshop under soldier class. Thanks

Does this work with LW2?

yes all vests also custom vests(mods).

For the purposes of the ballistic vests ability does hellweave count as a vest?

Glad there's still class mods that aren't forced into integrating with LWPP. I like the idea of extra perk choices in the LWPP, but I don't actually want the classes from it.

Hello! Sry for the long delay but finally the standalone tank class is up to date! Enjoy!

Class-own-symbol? Always nice to see. ^^

New Update avaiable :D

@Phantom: Thanks for making a seperate version for that (imho; because LWS shits on compatability) crappy LWPerk-Pack, instead of making this version rely on it.

Hello i will update this mod soon with some changes. If you want to play the newest version with the Long War Perk Pack you can check out the LW Tank Class Mod.

This note so you know I'm enjoying the fruit of your efforts. Thanks for sharing thid mod. It is greatly appreciated.

New Updates avaiable :)

yes thats true

How does melee work? The class doesn't have a sword, are you using the Beat Down animation for subueing enemy VIPs?

Or yknow. Tank Class
That'd be a solid name for this

yes and also without shield it is a strong combination with will to survive and shock absorbant armor you have 58% damage reduction

Then it's most likely I take Shock Absorbment Armor over Threat Resistance.

Shield Protocol
Shield Hit
Here I Am
Will To Survive
Shock Absorbment Armor
Ever Safe
Survival Training

Shield goes up all the time when I full move; it can melee and stun Stun Lancers; drawing all fire with Here I Am, but laughing it all off with Will To Survive, Shock Absorbment Armor, Ever Safe making sure I have a shield at all times, Survival Training helps me get some hits back. I'm so putting a Superior Dodge PCS on this dude.

Hello sorry i am a little busy at the moment. threat resistance only kicks if you activate it. It comes on my list. Thank you

In short:

EVER SAFE: make a full move, Shield Protocol kicks in
THREAT RESISTANCE: gives you a free Covering Fire shot if activated as the last action on my turn

So, the Tank would just wait until everbody has set up and all, then just fully dash out in front, kicking in Ever Safe, giving me a Shield Protocol.

Does Threat Resistance then notice that the Shield Protocol was "activated" as the last action, giving me Covering Fire?

With Here I am, he's going to always draw the fire and let my squad take care of the rest.

Okay, now that said, I've been contemplating:

Shield Protocol
Shield Hit
Here I am
Will To Survive
Threat Resistance (works with Ever Safe?)
Ever Safe (works with Threat Resistance?)
Survival Training

Basically, I'm seeing this guy as a...Tank. He's going to be drawing fire constantly turn after turn, especially if all I have to do is just make a full yellow move to kick in Ever Safe that gives me a Shield Protocol since I only moved. But thanks to Threat Resistance, it should kick up after I use Ever Safe? Or do I have to physically choose the Threat Resistance perk for it to work?

Survival Training is the ice on the cake; he'll just regenerate back the health and run right back into battle.

My crux is Ever Safe + Threat Resistance. If they don't work together, I'd rather grab Shock Absorbent Armor over Threat Resistance.

Any comment would be appreciated!

BTW, the way you have your trees behind spoilers and listed by sides is confusing. This will clean this up:

SQUADDIE: Shield Protocol
CORPORAL: Self Control + Shield Hit
SERGEANT: Here I Am + Challenge
LIEUTENANT: Wlll To Survive + Masochist
CAPTAIN: Shock Absorbent Armor + Threat Resistance
MAJOR: Ever Safe + Untouchable
COLONEL: Survival Training + Last Chance

Yeah, I kind of expected some sort of Shield HP...like the Shieldbearers, but only for himself and a low HP, at that...1 perhaps. I mean, he's dodging, and reducing damage already, so 1 shield kind of makes sense.

It also seems that most of the abilities here are passive...as in there' s no actual perk we would choose to enable except for the Shield...which is awesome.

I'm thinking:

Squaddie: Shield Protocol
Corporal: Shield Hit
Sergeant: Here I am
Lieutenant: Will To Survive
Captain: Threat Resistance
Major: Ever Safe
Colonel: Survival Training

Plesae tell me EVER SAFE is compatitible with THREAT RESISTANCE!!!

All I'd ever have to do is full move him into full cover and I'd get:

Covering Fire, Shield Hit, Here I am, Will To Survive while taunting enemies to hit him and he'd just regen that back through Survival Training.

AWC, I'd probably pick Shock Absorbent Armor or Low Profile to make low cover count as high cover...

Thoughts?

Yes the tank gets stronger with each level but on the next update he will recieve shield hp so he is more useful early.

Okay, I need to learn how to use this class. This guy seems weak early on, but build him up, he should be frontlining the squad and tanking/dodging/missing shots, yes?
