The various '''Squads''' from [[Into The Breach]].
 
   
  +
'''Squads''' in ''[[Into The Breach]]'' determine the [[Mechs]] you can take with you onto the battlefield.
==Description==
 
   
  +
You start with the Rift Walkers squad. Additional squads are unlocked by completing [[Achievements]]. Each completed achivement earns 1 coin.
==List Of Squads==
 
  +
; [[Rough Riders|Rift Walkers]] - These were the very first Mechs to fight against the Vek. They are efficient and reliable.
 
  +
Each squad has a custom paint job. Unlocked mech colors can be applied to other squads.
: [[Combat]], [[Tank|Cannon]], [[Artillery]]
 
  +
; [[Robotic Judoka|Steel Judoka]] - These Mechs specialize in positional manipulation to turn the Vek against each other.

  +
A Custom Squad allows for the selection of any Mechs that have been unlocked, including multiple of the same class as well as multiple of the same Mech.
; [[Flame Behemoths]] - Invincible to flames, these Mechs aim to burn any threat to ashes.

  +
* The '''Balanced Roll''' option selects three unique Mechs from three of the five different classes (Prime, Brute, Ranged, Science, and Cyborg). The balanced squad won't have more than 4 weapons so this prevents the Flame Mech, Rocket Mech, Defense Mech, Gravity Mech, and Nano Mech from appearing together in a balanced squad.
:
 
  +
* The '''Chaos Roll''' option has no restrictions on class, weaponry, or Mech combinations so you get a truly random squad.
; [[Frozen Death|Frozen Titans]] - These Titans rely on the Cryo Launcher, a powerful weapon that takes an experienced Pilot to master.

All of the Squads

Squads in Into The Breach determine the Mechs you can take with you onto the battlefield.

You start with the Rift Walkers squad. Additional squads are unlocked by completing Achievements. Each completed achivement earns 1 coin.

Each squad has a custom paint job. Unlocked mech colors can be applied to other squads.

Random Squads and Custom Squads

Once a second squad is acquired, the option to create a randomized squad or a customized squad opens up.

A Custom Squad allows for the selection of any Mechs that have been unlocked, including multiple of the same class as well as multiple of the same Mech.

A Random Squad is created out of all the unlocked Mechs.

  • The Balanced Roll option selects three unique Mechs from three of the five different classes (Prime, Brute, Ranged, Science, and Cyborg). The balanced squad won't have more than 4 weapons so this prevents the Flame Mech, Rocket Mech, Defense Mech, Gravity Mech, and Nano Mech from appearing together in a balanced squad.
  • The Chaos Roll option has no restrictions on class, weaponry, or Mech combinations so you get a truly random squad.
    • However, if you get duplicate Mechs with the same Passive ability, one of the duplicate Mechs will have the Passive and any power associated with it removed.

Secret Squad

The Secret Squad becomes available after unlocking the 8 named squads. 25 Coins are required to unlock the Secret Squad. This means you have to complete all of the remaining Global and Squad based achievements.
