Fast answer
Read this firstBest short answer
Take positions behind durable cover and avoid unnecessary exposure. Track shots: count down to the empty/reload sequence.
Biggest mistakes
- •Standing in open lines: repeated ranged shots delete squishies before you stabilize.
- •Dragging the fight: destructible map removes cover and makes later turns strictly harder.
- •Misplaying ammo windows: failing to punish reload/empty timing turns a winnable fight into attrition.
How you actually win
- •You keep consistent cover/LOS breaks for the first ammo cycle.
- •You identify the empty/reload window and use it to reposition + focus damage safely.
- •You end before cover fully collapses.

Win conditions
- •You keep consistent cover/LOS breaks for the first ammo cycle.
- •You identify the empty/reload window and use it to reposition + focus damage safely.
- •You end before cover fully collapses.
Positioning rules
- •Default: end turns behind something that blocks shots (treat open tiles as unsafe).
- •Don’t bunch around a single piece of cover that can be destroyed—have a secondary fallback.
- •Use the reload turn to rotate your most threatened unit to safety, then collapse.
- •If you must cross open space, do it during the empty/reload window, not when ammo is full.
Tempo plan
Opener (rounds 1–2)
- •Take positions behind durable cover and avoid unnecessary exposure.
- •Track shots: count down to the empty/reload sequence.
Midfight (stabilize)
- •Pressure without overexposing: chip while maintaining LOS breaks.
- •When empty is confirmed, reposition aggressively to set up a safe focus turn.
Finisher (close safely)
- •Commit burst during reload/empty timing; avoid long chases after cover is gone.
- •If the map is crumbling, prioritize a decisive close over perfect efficiency.
