    Yes, HE grenades still remove cover, but you don't have to worry about stray shots taking down whole walls as much anymore. UFO walls are even tougher. There is a perk called Sapper for engineers that allows grenades to do more damage and take out heavy cover.

    So, I finally finish Season 4 and come here to Lurk, and I see my own video up here... That hits me right in the feel goods :p I can certainly say that the Long war Mod is amazing for Role Play purposes! It completely changes the game to make it even more tactical and thought provoking. The 8...
