Always thought that Wargot ship is too easy? Looking for some fresh UFO:AS experience? Still think that gal/guy with katana shreds everything to pieces in his path?
Wait and look no more, get Digger Restoration Mod, look at screenshots and express your options and suggestions.
Think of this little mod as a small part of future Aftershock Unleashed Mod

edit: Now updated to 1.2b. Features Wargot Drones

Well it's, uh, large? What the heck is that supposed to be anyway? tongue.gif
Are you sure it's supposed to be a wargot creature? It looks a little like it could be a monster instead, those missions could use a bit more variety anyway.

Pretty sure. Check your localisation pack for 'Digger' entries. This is definitely wargot-only beast.
And please make no mistake, I didn't MAKE this thing. I ENABLED it. It's stats (base 15000 HP), attacks, glossary definition, all came from Altar. About the only things I needed to change were armor values (way to low for such beauty), its speed (1 change in subrace.txt) , and its attacks (hence changes in equipment.txt).
Of course, if you like it, it would be relatively simple thing to make it appear on mutant missions also (say, after Wargot arrival). This is exactly what I made in my homemod.

edit: and yes, I need playtesting to be done. I'm sure that in-house it works and doesn't break anything.

HOLY CRAP, that thing is awesome.

What a great addition to the game. What did it "shoot" to blow your guy away?

It's ranged attack. It also has melee one. Very easy beast, if you know its weaknesses, and hard one if you don't.

Nice job finding it and digging it out tongue.gif

Those screenshots made a funny cartoon when I previewed them - close-up, soldier spots digger, soldier dies biggrin.gif

I'm guessing from the name, and can't recall if someone posted it here a while back - but wasn't that creature unique to the wargot ships because it was used to create the tunnels the wargots use as a "base".

Time for some minor update. Cultists now get Cultist Hover Suicide Dron (aka Hover Dron). Spawns after Wargot arrival, in minor (well, I hope so) quantities. It's AI behaves somewhat erratic at times, so if anyone knows how to fix it - I'm open to your suggestions.
As always:
view this mod as a demonstration of Aftershock Unleashed Mod, that is to come in its full glory Very Soon ™.

PS. Very Soon ™ is a registered and a respected trademark of Blizzard North, inc

edit: Now Wargots have their heavy drones also. 2 autocannon ones and one hyperplasma one.
