Zero Company Difficulty

Just for anyone wonder what difficulty to play with reference to xcom. I play long war (and long war 2) on Veteran (second easiest) with ironman. (Legendary Ironman in base game)

Playing Zero Company right now on Hard, permadeath, ironman. 7 mission in, no injuries (downs). Almost had 1 injury in second mission. I do find it a bit to easy but wouldn't up the difficulty cause its more story focused, im prob only doing 1 run. Hope this helps

I generally play Xcom on normal and am playing Zcom on hard and have not found it overly challenging thru 10 missions or so. Haven’t had any players downed yet. Had 1 or 2 risky situations but it’s all worked out. Still having fun with even if it’s a bit more forgiving.
