Description
The Hive More is going to over time add much more to The Hive Mod.
This mod will NOT work on its own and requires The Hive base mod to work.


Right now, this adds new versions of existing missions that you'll have Hive show up in, in greater numbers.

Hive Ambush
During Ambush Missions, you can now have Chryssalids like Chameleons and Infectors show up stalking around the Abandoned Cities, looking for Lost or your soldiers to feed on.


Swarm Retaliation
In the Swarm Retaliation mission, you may now have to protect many Civies from a swarm of Hive that have attacked the Resistance Heaven. You still need to rescue only 6 to keep the territory but the more you save, the more you build monthly income for that territory. The more Civies you lose, the larger the Hive threat you need to deal with.

Hive Terror
Hive Terror missions work much like Retaliation missions only you do not have to directly move into a circle to save Civies. Its a pure SWEEP THE HIVE mission. The faster you kill all the Chrys, the faster you complete the mission. Allow them to kill Civies, and you'll be fighting longer or dying faster, up to you ;)

Extract Advent Crates
Now youll have a chance to run into a Swarm that has ambushed Resistance escorting Civies though the area and have stumbled onto the Advent Resource Depot. Get the crates and help protect the resistance and Civies in the area.

Chosen Base Defense
Like any other Chosen Base Defense, only this time the Chosen has brought a full Chryssalid hunting party with it. Many more Chryssalids will take part in this base defense. Extra pods added.

Avenger Base Defense
Like the base game Avenger Defense mission, only all of the initial starting enemies will be Hive. Be ready for a mad rush of Chryssalids!!

Gather survivors
Instead of Lost and Adv. Youll now have Lost and Hive Gestation Pits to deal with. These pits do not move but spawn many Chryssalids looking for a good meal. XCom, the Lost... does not matter.


Hive Ripper Swarm
In a Hive Ripper Swarm mission, you'll run into just that. A large Ripper Swarm. Early game it will be all Rippers so brings lots of bullets, fire and AOE weapons to take out large numbers quick. Mid to late game, you may have a Brood Mother or even a Hive Guard show up to see why you're squishing all the little Rippers ;) There is also now (just for this mission) a new type of Ripper called a Needle Ripper. Like the Ripper you can call in with the Brood Gauntlet that can be used as a living explosive, the Ripper Swarm can also have some of these mixed in. They can both make things harder or easier for you. If you can kill enough of them in close proximity of each other... you may set off a chain reaction killing multiple Rippers. These Needle Rippers have 1 more HP than other rippers (max 5) but a much higher defense and dodge factor. Cant have you killing them too easily now :)






IF ANYONE IS HAVING ISSUES NOT GETTING THE MISSIONS TO WORK RIGHT
delete mod, resub, clear config and start new game


NEW GAME START REQUIRED!!!

Does anyone know why alternate terror missions like the one in this mod are bugged to cause no civilians to spawn? The vanilla one works

I highly recommend for anyone trying this mod out to also download some other mod that buffs or overhauls the lost in one way or another, otherwise they become infinite bug food.

i never get any of the special mission asides from the survivor one and may the crates, but sometimes the survivor one crashes

I think I'll agree with Killerkitty641 too. Today, Advent did a lot of "explosive" things in one of my missions. Because of this, a bunch of Lost appeared on the map. They were killed by the Krissalids, which caused even more Krissalids to appear. As a result, it all ended with the fact that at some point the game completely crashed and the save can no longer load. And since I played in Terminator mode, I'll have to start all over again, but just in case without this mod. Be careful!

I agree with Killerkitty641 immediately below. Its too much when they spawn off of lost.

Not only is it the "because fuck you chump lol" style of difficulty, the massive number of units it produces will cause stability issues with running the program.
Killerkitty641 13 Feb @ 3:29pm 
Okay so I love this mod but there needs to be some tweaks, based on my recent experiences:

1 - Chryssalids should NOT be able to infect the lost. It makes very little sense given that they're literal rotten zombies. I get the base game Chryssalids can infect them with posion, but the infectors shouldn't be able to at least. They bloat in numbers super quick and make missions with the lost completely impossible.

2 - Units from gestation pools should not be able to act the same turn they spawn. Even advent reinforcements only get a movement/overwatch action, Chryssalids being able to spawn and attack in the same turn breaks the game flow.

I fixed the hive enemies being replaced, but now whenever I have a Mission related to this mod, there's no enemies whatsoever. Going to delete config folder again hoping it fixes it :)

For some reason when I encounter the "hive" I actually find mechs & common enemies taking it's place. So I find 10ish mechs & troopers pods. I believe it has something to do with ABA. Does anyone have a solution?

@Other users of The Hive More
Covert Infiltration provides the player with a lot more choice over what missions to accept. While I agree that some missions with both the Hive and lost are more than a little difficult, Covert Infiltration can alleviate the issue to some extent. If the mission does not have a remote evacuation zone, retreat, if necessary, is always an option. If the mission has large numbers of the Hive and a remote evacuation zone, then it is better to invest in a different mission. In Covert Infiltration few missions are required.

Damn, this makes stuff rather difficult. For sure recommend if you wanna feel pain, but dont use it if you're like me and get pissed easily.
