Seems quiet on the board, so I thought I'd ask about my favorite request. Could the main campaigns be added to the skirmish menu so we can play or replay them with our established squads? I know game balance has been cited as a problem, but let's face it, the skirmish campaigns aren't balanced for our assault gun packing, void armor wearing 'A' teams anyway.
Thoughts? It should be trivial to program, who else wants to play the campaign games with senior squadrons?

hathaway - you've got a point about the balance being out of whack as your squad gets mightier and mightier. If you have a assault gun packing, void armor totin' A squid, then the next skirmish campaign is going to give you a run for your money. Request noted. Let's see what the others have to say.

I definitely want my vote added to unlock campaigns in Skirmish modes once you have achieved them using the Campaign teams. Think of it as "you've done the mission, now the tech-heads back at Templar HQ have converted all of the telemetry into their battle-sim and it's all set to go on the ole Holodeck for review/training purposes".

OK, we'll make it happen. Also planning to address the other undercurrent of this discussion, the lack of balance / levels / unlocks

Oh oh ... as an added feature request for this type of topic, is there any way we can recruit new members (or replace existing members) of a Skirmish squad? I have favorite captains, but they were created back when Hydra's and Incinerators were just a dream within a dream. I'd love to be able to add new recruits to my existing squads to help vary gameplay, but still allow me to taking my captain out each time |

slayernz - awesome request. We are in progress of adding Recruit capability, though the Honor cost will be very high. However, you will able to grow a squad up to the size of a Battle Force if you want, replace the unfortunate lost warriors, or recruit new elite soldiers types such as Neptune and Hydra.

Awesome ... however, I accidentally deleted my favorite captain ... aaaaargh (tired playing = bad judgement calls). I wish I could bring her back from the dead ... oops I was away from TA for some time, and coming back to it again, I miss some of the earlier more simple levels (you know "hold this spot" or "kill 25 aliens"). Ahh, those were the days Oh .. for the longest time i couldn't find how to go off to the skirmish ... I didn't realise "to battle" is the one to click on. it should be marked in green or sumfink |

Good advice -- the default option should always be the most obvious one. I'll chat with Andrew about that |
