Strike Team



Strike Teams are a feature where a limited number of characters can be used in missions. First introduced in Spec Op 16, players choose a subset of their heroes to add to a team that will carry out each part of the missions.

Strike Teams Creation
Strike Teams are created at the end of missions. Each strike team has a few preassigned members which are mandatory to finish the missions that follow. In addition player can choose a limited number of heroes to join a specific Strike Team. Once created, the team is used in next mission.

To reassign heroes, the player will have to replay the mission in which said team was created.
