Long War of the Chosen Main Page

Initially developed to serve as less-than-lethal crowd control, the ADVENT Stun Lancer has been re-tasked in the face of the increasing XCOM threat as a brutal, close-quarters melee fighter.

Their high mobility and dangerous charge makes them important foes to lock down. Boasting an innate +10 Aim bonus, successful strikes with the Stun Lance can disorient, stun, or even knock a soldier unconscious!

As the campaign progresses, Advanced Stun Lancers arrive, capable of following up successful strikes with even deadlier attacks. Later still, Elite Lancers gain the ability to reposition after successful strikes, allowing for easier follow-ups.

Tips

  • The precise effect of a Stun Lance strike is dependent on a stat check, comparing the Stun Lancer's Strength against their target's Will.
  • Stun Lancers are very aggressive units and will always attempt to close in in order to attack. It's generally best to disable their Stun Lance via effects such as disorientation, or failing that, simply avoid it by being outside their movement range.
  • Stun Lancers will tend to target relatively healthy opponents. However, it is unwise to rely on this to bait attacks onto a more desirable target, as they are still fairly unpredictable.
