really nice 6 range of helis LOL
even the tactical one has is own range 5 and it is blatantly noticeable.:p
on one thing they are good though, to built something from scratch. and there is no doubt about that.

that looks cool! It will certainly level up the player involvement during the battles.
my questions:

1. can we have a detachment without a commander? Cause we want our generals to draw missile silo fire. So these 3 and mercs are destined to form their own detachment.

2. when we use normal rally, will it affect all troops and detachments or just those troops that do not belong to detachments?

3. when we use detachment rally, will it have the same properties of normal rally and cool down period? Can we use normal rally, then after 8" detachment rally A ? Or even consecutive?

4. The troop bar, will it be adjustable by us? Will that bring more control over where the buttons are? Like move tactics to the far left corner or air units to the middle?

thx in advance @Harlems369th

You'll have to come back next week when the full reveal of Detachments in our Update notes releases. :)

Thank you, I believe this will be a great update!

A quick question, would it be possible for the developers to work on the coordination between the troops within each detachment?

For example, in the video, one of the detachments had a wall breacher and saboteurs. The idea of this combination was for the wall breacher to create a direct way for the saboteurs to get behind enemy lines. In the video however, the saboteurs completely ignored the wall breacher and took the long way around which defeats the whole purpose of this combination.

So I guess my question is, after players come up with different troop combinations, would it be possible for you guys to work on optimizing some of the common ones? Thank you!

Like in the video, you'll want to work on coordinating the Detachments with their individual rallys.

From the video it looks like each detachment Rally has its own cooldown (which is good).

I'm getting excited about this new development... all the chipmunks in my brain are churning that hamster wheel at the same time...

Would anyone care to share their detachment composition ideas before launch?
Do you anticipate three roughly similar detachments or specialized detachments comprised of one type of troop?

@Harlems369th ...
Will we be able to load in other already grouped units like Mercenaries?

There's a save button on the Detachments screen...
Is that for just one particular battle or will we be able to save Detachment "Loadouts" for future use?

Will regular units be able to take the "Leader" spot?
Which would, in effect, allow four types of units in a Detachment.

I appreciate and have seen all the excitement!

You will have all your answers next week when the full reveal goes live.

I will say, since we don't quite touch on this in full detail:
  • Mercenaries cannot be put into a Detachment, they're kind of a detachment of their own.
  • Detachments won't work like loadouts, but if you retrain, your Detachments will fill back up with those troops. If you change up your army after a battle, you'll need to rebuild your Detachments. You can even assign troops to Detachments while they're training but they can't be used until they're finished training.
