XCOM 2
Long War Toolbox
Expanding the mod
Perhaps it is not my place to ask, but I was wondering if there were any plans or if it might be possible to add more of the Second Wave options in or combine other peoples' utility mods with their permission of course. Things like Absolutely Critical, Aiming Angles, Total Loss, maybe War Weariness and Results Driven too. Utility mods like the Continue button in the main menu or Evac All and Overwatch All/Others would be neat too. The idea is to have all these common sense and widely regarded as pretty neat mods rolled into one package for perhaps increased compatability and efficiency.

I would second this. Also having a description of the map would be nice again. Like in Long War when it would tell you if you were on a bridge or there was a large structure to enter, having some idea of what kind of map you're going into would be handy (Uniforms Manager has a decent one, but it doesn't play nice with this mod).

And I would add that some of the quality of life mods would be really nice to have all rolled into one package as well maybe. Cost Based Ability Colours, Stop Wasting My Time (When he updates it), and Gotcha (Flank Preview Evolved) are some really nice mods.

It gets a bit overwhelming to have a ton of mods that do things that almost feel like they should have been in the game beforehand.
It would be nice and I know modders get tired of people asking them all to squish their mods into one or two things but I believe these simply quality of life type things could be nicely done up as a part of the Toolbox. The Toolbox can thus be an even more absolutely essential core mod for any player's list.

I personally believe that the mods so far released by Long War Studios can be combined and/or expanded to be the base of a modular overhaul of the game which, I'm sure to some degree, is the general idea.

I've often pondered that such a project, though rather ambitious, could be done in just six mods to cover six major areas of the game those being a Weapons & Items Pack (largely accomplished but could be expanded), a Classes & Perks Pack (also accomplished but could also be expanded), Gameplay & Missions Pack, Enemies Pack (on the way), Customization, and of course the Toolbox.

Largely wishful thinking, but a nice idea of a wish nonetheless.
