I keep my whole squad together and to use johndramey's terms, do it A->C->B order. I've often found that if there are no knights by a TP then the enemy mostly leaves it alone. If they start attacking it, I'll drop a few structural upgrades on it, but those almost always last until I can complete the level. |

I've recently started making a Headshot scout for when I know he won't be moving much (like defending a TP) and have been amazed at the amount of damage they can put out. Forget about slowing the xenos just kill them in one shot.

"Dominating!" ... "ETC!"  |

Forget about slowing the xenos just kill them in one shot. Yeah, man! In my recent run through of the game, I had my level 20 scout built out for headshot, piercing fire, and field of focus. I was landing 200+p damage hits on the Narvidians and it was amazing. |

Bringing my Hydra squad through this, something I've been dreading. I seriously am having issues with this level... the amount of Xeno this map spawns is out of control! Would there be any way to highlight the secondary TPs? Plotting a route is difficult at best on this one, so a shade more transparency would be crazy helpful. I understand if this gets vetoed, but I'm looking at yet another wipe and don't know what to do differently  |

Click objectives, click on the row that includes the TP of interest. The destination is shown and highlighted. |
