1) Download and install XCOM 2 and the War of the Chosen expansion. 2) Go to XCOM 2 -> XCom2-WarOfTheChosen -> XComGame and add a new folder there. Call it "Mods". 3) Download the mods you wish to use (e.g. via Steam Workshop Downloader or Nexus) and put their folders into the "Mods" folder you have created. 4) Go to XCOM 2 -> XCom2-WarOfTheChosen -> XComGame -> Config and open "DefaultModOptions" with a text editor. 5) For each mod you wish to use, add a line that looks like this: ActivateMods="MODNAME" The name of the mod can always be found in the mod folder. For example, if the file is called "EvacAll_WOTC.XComMod", you need to write "ActivateMods=EvacAll_WOTC" (without the quotation marks). 6) Save the changed DefaultModOptions file and start the game. 7) If you wish to disable a mod, delete or change its line in the DefaultModOptions file. Just an amazing squad-based strategy game. Very addictive, especially with mods. I can't recommend it enough.

This is what I love about A Legionary's Life: - The writing really makes you think and feel the way a Roman legionary might have at the time of the Second Punic War. For anyone interested in Roman history or well-written RPGs, this is a gem. - The gameplay is great. It consists of camp sections, fights and random events. Very often you have to make choices which may have an impact on your reputation, give you certain rewards or put you into dangerous situations. During the camp sections you can train up your legionary's skills and stats, boost your morale or improve your reputation with certain activities, or you can buy better equipment. The turn-based combat is very well designed and rewards a tactical approach. If you fight cautiously, you will be able to hold the line even against superior forces. If you fight recklessly, you will die very quickly. The choices and random events give the game a lot of replay value. There is also a cool foraging minigame. - The game offers a true RPG experience. Your legionary simply won't be good at everything. Depending on his stats and skills, certain actions will be very likely to fail. There is also a morality system which allows you to roleplay either a ruthless or a virtuous legionary. This adds even more replay value. These are the things you may not like about the game (none of which bother me): - Due to the combat rolls, stat checks and random events there is a lot of RNG in the game. To me, this is a plus, but if you dislike RNG in video games, it may turn you off. - A lot of the game is entirely text-based and there is no voice acting. If you hate reading long texts (even if they are well-written), this may bother you. - Permadeath makes the game very intense, but each time you die, you will have to start over. - It's a small budget indie game. If you expect cinematic graphics or a huge variety of music, you will be disappointed. There is a free demo available online. Play it first if you are still unsure.
