Isn't this built into the game already? Train rookies as any class via GTS facility. There is even the ability to retrain perks already built in, again via AWC facility. If you want to, you could change the time it takes to train in the GTS to instant I guess.

The point of Commander's choice is being able to choose the class of rookies that get promoted naturally.

For example, without Commander's Choice, the 4 rookies that come from Gatecrasher will get random classes.

Any rookie deployed on Avenger Defense mission will get a random class as well after being promoted.

Then that seems like it's not just as simple as adding it in. The design for the GTS and AWC would need to be considered as well then IMO. Seems like a stand alone mod to me.

One of the best things about the original Long War is that it had Commander's Choice as an option. I know they tried to add something similar with the GTS but it just doesn't work as well as it should do. Yes, the build time for the GTS could be reduced to zero and the training time could also be reduced to zero, but that makes the GTS too powerful. It would be nice to have CC back as an option. If I said please, made it pretty and topped it off with a cherry, would you please see your way clear to adding it?

I have a stand-alone Commander's Choice mod that's compatible with the Long War Toolbox; it's just not very tested. It seems to work fine, but I don't know how it will interact with Hidden Potential.

It's split with permission from Second Wave Reborn. I'll put it up in a bit.

I think I'd rather not... I have a Commander's Choice mod already installed, and duplicates might break my game again. LW Toolbox is good as is.
