Wasteland 3 - Cornered Rats |

In Wasteland 3 you take command of a squad of Desert Rangers, lawmen and women in a post-nuclear world, trying to rebuild society from the ashes. More than a century after the bombs fell, you’re fighting a losing battle to keep your beloved Arizona alive. Then the self-proclaimed Patriarch of Colorado radios, promising aid if you'll do a job he can only entrust to an outsider-rescue his land from the ambitions of his three bloodthirsty children.

Engagement for the -Machine God- *algorithm*

I was about to comment when you said it, I'm quite surprised you don't have a sniper in the mix. Don't know what difficulty you're playing on, but you really need a stealthy long-rannge instigator for those later encounters.

[@20MG]

Right? I have all this close combat and not a single sniper or DM. That has got to change lol. Rookie move.

[@dakunssd]

@@20MG it's unfortunate and very typical for this kind of CRPG that you can lock yourself out of content and/or mess up your combat success with early decisions. There are a bunch of build templates out there for optimal characters but it feels so rules-lawyery and meta that you have to go to a seperate medium to "properly play" the game.
I get that inXile was going for that unforgiving old-school "scrub out till you get it" kind of difficulty, but you do have quite some time investment to restart if you have to, not like a rogue-like where death and restart is quick and built into the game mechanics.

I'm finding this interesting; an RPG using XCOM - like rules would certainly scratch an itch.
Wonder if you might not be moving a little too far, amd should retain more APs for fire.

[@20MG]

I should. I'm playing pretty aggressively
