how to access Kaos Engines content?

[caphe_boda]

Hello everyone, on my second playthrough, enabled Kaos Engines DLC (I am pretty sure) but can't seem to access any of it. I read that there is a Marketplace, but I don't seem to see one in my game nor does there seem to be a Mission that might lead to it...?

MarketPlace is hidden behind one of random explorable Points of Interest.
You're supposed to just stumble on it accidentally. But it's always (at least in my experience) somewhere in the vicinity of your starting base. In Satelites range as well, if i were to guess.
So keep exploring until you find it. Mind you - those bastards will sell you ♥♥♥♥ for outrageous prices until you complete their series of special missions that not only will unlock new gear from them, but most importantly - give you a discount.
There's 4 missions total (one per vehicle) and IMHO i wouldn't start buying from them until at least 3rd mission and optimally all 4.

Hint: their missions always end up being one of the random [?] POIs in the vicity, usually the closest ones they can find.
They basically decide "♥♥♥♥ this one" and forcefully turn a POI into a mission even if your plane was mid-investigating it. So you can play a 4D chess with them and leave some POIs around the markeplace unexplored so that you could access and beat their mission as quick as you can.
1st mission is piss-easy, 2nd is kinda problematic because of the hostile NJ soldiers present AS WELL as pandorans (you can kinda let them buckle it out, although NJ will get overwhelmed in some 4-5 turns), 3rd is piss-easy again and 4th one is 50/50 (the map is too big and can take a while to beat without someone or something real fast).

Cool, will take a look. Thanks!

Indeed I've found the marketplace and did the first mission quite early, but then the second is just awfully hard and undoable in early game, the NJ guys just add to the Pandorans roster as they're mindfragged easily...
Really badly balanced
