DESCRIPTION

TAKE CHARGE OF YOUR SQUAD

Your squad members follow your lead, but also actively respond to various situations themselves to effectively combat hostiles and follow police protocol. Make sure you issue the correct orders but also remember that you'll be right there in the middle of the action, performing many tasks yourself!

DEPLOY ON MISSIONS
