For this reason, it can be crucial to have at least two squads that can handle difficult missi


Engineers and Scientists are the most valuable rewards players can get in XCOM 2 and should be prioritized over any other. After unlocking the Black Market, it is important to check every month whether any can be purchased. These purchases cost Intel, which makes it a valuable resource in XCOM 2 . Scientists dramatically increase the speed of any research. Engineers are key to upgrade and maintain almost everything at HQ. Players should also aim to have at least one Engineer clearing debris for more rooms at all ti

Players of grand strategy games might have heard of Endless Legend. Moreover, it's perhaps one of the most interesting fantasy-science fiction 4X titles to have graced the PC. In this game, players end up as one of the many remnants of races in a changing Auriga. The game features 14 playable factions, with five others in expansi


Not meant to make War of the Chosen "harder," per se, but the enemy AI changes just tend to make missions more dynamic, allowing long-time players to notice some significant changes that can truly make a playthrough feel new again.
