Kasrkin [WotC]

Description
This mod adds a new class "Kasrkin" to the game.

​“Commander, we recently received some new recruits that have some specialized skills and equipment for field combat. This brand of soldier goes by many names, Storm Trooper, Scion, Kasrkin, but they are all equipped for maximum damage to the enemy with their assault rifles and high explosives. These Kasrkin Troopers fight like your standard line infantry unit, with a few tricks here and there to turn them into a fearsome walking cannon. Properly supported, ADVENT won’t have time to react to the fusillade of fire these soldiers pour out onto the front lines.” -Bradford

Hello all, welcome to the next installment in a line of revamped and exciting Warhammer 40k-themed XCOM 2 soldier classes from RookieSlime! This class is the Kasrkin Trooper, inspired by what were called Inquisitorial Storm Troopers, Acolytes, and now Scions; this class is meant to be a line infantry unit with a bit of 40k flair to differentiate it from the many Assault-Rifle based classes currently in circulation. You’ll find some abilities in common with those classes, but others that are completely unique to the Kasrkin Trooper as well!

The Storm Trooper Tree focuses on dealing single-target damage with the assault rifle. Utilizing a heavily upgraded rifle with one of these guys, along with some support will deal some really heavy damage to even the toughest ADVENT units, but be warned some of their abilities have the potential to “Get hot!” and cause the Kasrkin to take aim and defense penalites!

The Commando Tree uses skills that upgrade a variety of general stats and the Kasrkin’s grenades, this makes it a great pool of skills to mix and match from with the Storm Trooper, or build a generalist class that supports your more close-range oriented front liners with a bit a reach.

I hope you enjoy this custom class! Feel free to report bugs and offer feedback here on the workshop. Thanks for checking out the mod!

Love this mod have been using it for years! I was just browsing over the details when I saw the hotshot and overcharge abilities are meant to have a cooldown? They’ve always had zero cooldown for me? Meltagun can’t remember if it’s one time use or not.. Great soldier class but with these abilities available every turn, even with heavily modded enemies they are rather op. If fixed as intended in description then I wouldn’t feel as guilty using them lol

This class with the Imperial Guard Armour mod + DOW Voice pack is just me drooling over my keyboard.. My Kasrkin soldier is soooo powerfull it's almost ridiculous. I love it though! Memento Mori surprisingly kills more often with the melee than with the gunshots in my game, because of execution triggering every damn time i use it. Glorious! FOR THE EMPEROR!
