War of the Chosen Guide
Understand resistance factions, Chosen enemies and expansion-specific features.
Before you start
Use a legitimate Windows installation and back up your current saves. Record the game edition, launcher, graphics driver and any installed modifications.
Step-by-step approach
- Start with the base game and default configuration.
- Understand resistance factions, Chosen enemies and expansion-specific features.
- Test the same mission or launch process after each change.
- Restore your previous configuration if the result is worse.
Compatibility and safety
Windows 10 and 11 behavior depends on hardware and the installed edition. Avoid unknown executable patches and do not disable security protections permanently. Community mods may require expansion-specific versions.
How the expansion changes campaign decisions
War of the Chosen introduces recurring threats that reward a deeper roster and flexible mission planning. Instead of relying on one elite squad, train backup soldiers so you can respond when experienced personnel are unavailable. Resistance factions bring distinctive tactical roles, and the Chosen make information gathering valuable.
The best strategic order varies with the campaign state. Prioritize the immediate mission and available resources rather than following an inflexible universal build order.
