Feels like I’m locked into playing with unique characters. GoW Tactics. [very little if any spoilers].

I’m a massive tactics genre game fan spanning to the 90’s. I am absolutely in love with the game so far, it gives such a fresh perspective in this genre and I do have a few complaints about the system so far, but this thread isn’t about that.

I’ve made it to the first boss and I have a certain squad tactic that I would like to use and build my team around. The problem with this is, it feels like I’m locked into each unique character for almost every story mission so far.

I want to build a team, like I do x-com, that is like guerilla warfare. 2 gnashers, 1 heavy, and 1support or vanguard. I can’t do that (so far) and it kind of kills the vibe for me a bit.

Hopefully the games characters open up a bit and I’m able to use the play style that I am wanting to use.
