Wanted to make a thread, because I'm going to be starting a few games but taking different paths on how I deploy my squads.
My current game bee-lined it to the Hydra, so I could have some area denial. My thought was that I would have a Hydra and a Turret Engineer lock down an entire crucial section while the remainder of the squad goes off and smashes elsewhere. However, this direct path to the Hydra left a slight void in the mobile offense that this Battleforce will require.
Thus enters the Berserker. I had great success with them in the Alpha, and I'm finding him to be INVALUABLE in the campaign so far. Most of the time he is at the head of my squad, bashing face and just being an absolute beat-stick. This allows me to use my Commander as a ranged specialist, and though he is proficient in combat, I'm upping his +mp talent and using him as a heavy skirmisher, to great effect.
My next game will go Paladin and Neptune, as I haven't gotten very far with either of them in the Alpha, though I'm sure they will be great.
Use this thread to discuss how you build your front lines, which Templars you find most useful, and the orders in which you unlock/train up your frontline fighters.
