Holy fucking shit, why do lancers suck so much? Their movement is abysmal, and are the most susceptible to enemy fire, if not snipers.

Use scouts for destroying tanks from behind. Actually, use scouts for everything.
>>
You usually only bring one into combat, two if the enemy has a fuckton of tanks. They're definitely the lowest priority class to have.

Xp is determined purely by how many turns it takes to finish the mission.

Put all xp into scouts.
Buy the extra activation order from the graveyard.
Buy the movement speed order.
Win maps in one turn.
Level up other classes.
Give lancer a grenade launcher

>>333471756
late game only scouts are worth using anyway

for the first half of the game it's pretty balanced and you can play as is. don't be gay
>>
On a related note, were the sequels ever any good? Any way to play them in English?

Hope they eventually return to the Western aesthetic.

this. scouts are fucking op in this game. Susie for best scout.
>>
>>333472735
ignore 2. play 3 if you want more.
>>
Use cheat engine to get max levels on all classes. Never see another lancer die ever again.

Demolition order makes lancers obsolete

Stormtroopers are nice but they're still inferior to scouts, which is a shame as stormtroopers are badass and fun

Engineers are only required if there are mines or if the edelweiss needs to tank lots of lancer fire

Avoid wasting orders on your tanks unless you can get a good shot with the cannon or need that smoke

Snipers are useful for picking off enemy leaders or priority targets like lancers and enemy snipers. Marina is the only sniper you need
>>
Lancers were supposed to be mandatory to blow up tanks

But the devs didn't make tank grates bulletproof, so you ended up with Scouts and even Shock Troops being able to wreck an enemy tank.

Lancers ended up mostly being an enemy unit dangerous to the Edelweiss, so you needed them dead or you'd swallow an Auto-Lose for Welkin getting btfo.
