Avenger Defense unbeatably difficult
Even on the lowest difficulty, the very first pod of enemies is always almost a dozen strong with a General who has comparable hit points to a Chosen. The Chosen initiating the assault also spawns near the first pod instead of near the gun like they do in vanilla. I've had two games end brutally overwhelmed on one of these when I've only barely reached Mag weapons, is it supposed to be this difficult? This is the only mission I've been having absurd difficulty with, nothing else has been giving me this much trouble. As far as I'm aware I don't have any other mods that increase enemy numbers or difficulty.

I'm with you on concern, I was working on a game run (regular difficulty) where I think enemy was on 16ish tech level, which was pretty hard in general, but the avenger defense map came up and it was comical with like 20+ units including a chosen leader, 2 sectopods and some mega sized Chryssalid. All enemies with crazy health and armor stats. I quit, but with invincibility on it would probably have taken an hour+ to complete lol.

I had the same issue, and I really had to tweak the ini files for some weapons. I also boosted my characters to have at least 10 HP each lol. I have a jedi class mod which I use and tweaked the settings, gave my' jedi the ability to 100% deflect attacks and back to the atttacker with good damage. I could get it to solo by themselves. I am having the problem of the game crashing during the 2nd pod waves.
