About this mod
An inclusive character pool for use with the Military Camoflague Patterns mod, because actually setting up enough soldiers to use the camos took many hours, focus is mainly NATO because I prefer countries that have in game language or accent voices. Additionally there are characters in the pool from a few games, but their implementation is immersiv

This works with WOTC, however they changed the color scheme around and many of the military camouflage patterns look like booty in WOTC, If you use the mod Calmer colors (WOTC) it looks a little better. You would also need to get the (WTOC) version of Capnbub's accessory pack.
An inclusive character pool for use with the Military Camouflage Patterns mod, because actually setting up enough soldiers to use the camos took many hours, focus is mainly NATO because I prefer countries that have in game Language or accent voices. Additionally there are characters in the pool from the games Gears of War, Mass Effect, Overwatch, and Starcraft, but they have still been designed to look like realistic military characters and use their appropriate nation's camouflage, so they can be deleted or ignored without hurting immersion.
I have tested with a fresh install and confirmed that if you install the recommended mods first (and launch with the XCOM2 Alternative Launcher. You can download it here: https://github.com/X2CommunityCore/xcom2-launcher/releases/tag/v1.4.0) before downloading the character pool that the modded armor patterns, accessories, and voices will still be applied. I have uploaded an image of sticky notes showing the disposition of the gender and nationality of the 188 soldiers in the pool, it also shows the camouflage patterns from the camo mod I used and the corresponding primary and secondary colors. It is important to note that where there was only one camouflage for a country, I just typed that country's name or abbreviation, and when there was more than one I specified the country and camo name (if you use a different camo pattern for a country the colors will be off)
Mandatory mods (All on Steam Workshop)
Military Camouflage patterns: http://www.nexusmods.com/xcom2/mods/211/? (the whole point of this CP)
Calmer Colors - Armor (WoTC Compatible) (this mod fixed something that broke with the colors in WOTC))
Capnbub's accessory pack: http://www.nexusmods.com/xcom2/mods/116/? (absolutely necessary for a realistic military look, nearly 100% of characters in this pool use head accessories from this pack)
Vanilla Clothes as Kevlar: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=810911308 (used for a lot of the pants and sleeves, which camouflage fully applies to)

highly recommended mods (All on Steam Workshop)
[LW2 Cmp] XCom 2 International Voices Pack (if you want Russian, Polish, and a few others to use their native languages)
Medal of Honor Warfighter Multiplayer Voices - WTR: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=702201468 (adds voices used for male Norwegian, Polish, Russian, Swedish, and South Korean soldiers, a great value in one mod if you are obsessed with military and linguistic realism like I am!)
(if you miss these probably 5-10% of characters may have some missing armor that needs to be reassigned)

WOTC New Heads Pack
SECTION 9: MOTOKO PACK [WOTC]
PARAGON: Lt. Belica's Outfits [WOTC]
about the characters from games
if you are just here for the military realism, then this may turn you off, I only left it in because it's not hard to get rid of. a safe bet would be to simply delete every character with a set nickname and you'd get about 75% of them, if you are not familiar with the games then none of the names or character designs should be in any way remarkable to you, and if you are, then you will see that they are incorporated respectfully. I'm a bit obsessed with the idea of unique voices for the game and unique characters, so many of these are a perfect fit, especially Overwatch which like xcom is about a multinational coalition, and so I was able to add uniquely voiced French, German, Japanese and South Korean characters. (asian languages/accents are always the hardest to find) If you want these characters and voices in your pool, then no extra accessory mods are needed just the voice mods that I will list below
Optional Voice mods recommended, (all on steam workshop) Install these first and the characters will remember the right voices, if not it wouldn't be too much work to reapply them if you know the character names. If you skip this those characters will revert to default voices.
