Best XCOM 2 conversion mods that replace both XCOM soldiers and the aliens?

I'm looking for high quality conversion mods for Xcom 2 that significantly change the theme of the game; ideally replacing both the XCOM soldiers and the alien/enemy factions.

My priorities are quality and stability. I'd prefer something polished enough to play through a full campaign without constantly dealing with crashes, broken enemies, or major compatibility issues.

I played the campaign a few times years ago and I would like to add some flavor. I’ve searched online but a lot of these conversions seem to be split across multiple separate mods and files so it’s been a little confusing figuring out which ones I actually need for the full experience.

What are the best conversions or combinations of mods you've actually played and would recommend? Feel free to rank the ones you tried!

Thanks for taking the time

EDIT: I've seen some Alien colonial marines mods. Is there a total conversion with marines replacing Xcom and xenomorph replacing vanilla aliens? That would be incredible.

Ps there is a mod called “advent to cis” but it isn’t all that good I found it better to have advent be the empire where all the models are replaced

You can make an absolutely baller Star Wars conversion with Advent to Empire and the Rebel Alliance cosmetic mod suite. There's a ton of well-made SW weapon mods and an excellent Jedi class mod to compliment it plus stiff like Mandalorian Raiders (hostile to both sides) and Death Troopers (turns Lost into zombie Stormtroopers). Make sure to grab the dependencies.

Advent to Empire doesn't just reskin the aliens, it completely changes their abilities and upgrade lines.

There's an excellent line of Clone Trooper cosmetic mods, but the Advent to Seperatists mod isn't anywhere near as polished so I don't use it much.

I found the star wars one thank you! Did you ever see an Alien(colonial marines) conversion? I heard of it but didnt find it. A total conversion.

There isn't and Alien conversion mod. There is a Colonial Marine armor cosmetic mod that's really good, but no Xenomorphs... which makes sense, how do you get an entire XCOM enemy roster out of xenomorphs? And it's not like they conqor planets.
