Description
Commander, I am in awe at the amount of individuals touched psionically since the first war. Perhaps Dr. Vehlen's experiments in radiating every soldier she could find with psionic energy led to this. I do not believe she could have predicted this outcome...
- Dr. Richard Tygan

Author's Note: This mod has a decent number of reported discrepancies related to auto-pistol firing animations. Subscriber beware as a fix is unfortunately not planned at this time.

Introduces Templar Recruits for XCOM
Many of the amazing characters available on the workshop align closely to the combat style of a templar. However, due to the constraints of the faction system, you could potentially never see your favorite character recruited into your campaign. This aims to alleviate that concern in order to better celebrate a varied character pool.

New Content
  • Rookies can be trained as templars in the GTS.
  • Rookies can be naturally promoted to templars.
  • All abilities, skills, and weapons will be reflective of the traditional templar.
  • The Templar faction itself remains untouched.

Templar Animations have been implemented! All abilities and animations - even the Templar's stance and run - will align appropriately to the traditional Templar. (Please note, existing characters with this class will not be updated. A new campaign may be required.)

Please note, despite the above point - there are reported issues related to pistol and barracks animations. I apologize!

Additional Details
This will seamlessly integrate into a current or new campaign. I recommend using Use My Class to correctly pull from your character pool.

Please let me know if you encounter any bugs or discrepancies. I hope you enjoy!

I use this mod along with the other two for the other classes and they work great.

Some issue I have encountered:

- Some of recruits that level into these classes don't get a "free" skill from the level up, and instead have to pay using their ability points (or the communal one)

- I use the 'lost ability/melee/overwatch headshot' mods that give the 'headshot' ability (you gain one free action) when you kill a lost by any means. For some reason it sometimes doesn't work with these particular soldiers. From what I understand those mods check for the ability, not the class (As I know that these are technically new classes in the files) so as long as they abilities are named the same in the "Trainable Skirmisher/Templar/Reaper" they SHOULD work, however they just sometimes don't :/

Does anyone have a fix for either of the above? I can kind of deal with the first one, but I really want to find a fix for the second as I really enjoy that mod.

Thanks!

this mods are interesting but it creates a new templar/Skirmirsher/Reaper, not based on the base game that you run, specialy with the Long War od the Chosen.They use normal soldiers armor, the weapon doesnt show.

I do see the warning above, but am curious if the auto-pistol firing is the only issue with this mod?

https://gtm.steamproxy.vip/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2405138536 I casually leave this here for anyone who wants to fix there templars stances. This works with soldiers that have been promoted to templar so preloading is no longer needed.

@Soulwisher
Curious - does starting a new campaign fix the issue?

@horsepowerYT
Thank you for reporting !

@Inerael
Decent number of bugs associated with it - no plans at this time

So I removed this mod from the game but now when I promote a solider it won't give them any Class & it leaves it blanked. I've started new games without it but it keeps happening. I need help changing the files back to how they were before I put the mod in. If anyone can help me with that please do cause of right now I can't play the game

Here's another one for you to add on the bug list, Mental Focus no longer works for trained Templars. The ones given to you be the faction only start with the 1 focus. Bye~
Inerael 10 Apr, 2023 @ 10:31am 
will it be possible to remove the gun ?

The fix from Raven Frostborn does work.

@All
Sorry for the discrepancies folks. I've put at warning at the top of the description
