There have also been changes to how melee works apparently so my frenzied tend to miss or graze on attacks often enough that it's a serious problem. It's even worse for sieges where instead of two good units your stuck with a militia that can't shoot up. Because they have to get in close they tend to get focus fired prety badly. In the early game losses are unacceptable if you want to stay caught up and keeping my frenzied alive is nearly impossible. The armor and hp on hidden is the real problem, its badly insufficient for a pure melee unit. Their damage is ok but unexceptional, their acid spit is kinda bad in that the choking debuff only lasts one turn and dosnt always land. It's honestly the worst tier 1 unit I have had the misfortune of dealing with. The kirko hidden is incredibly good for this so i thought I would find similar success. I tend to main Amazon, Dvar and Vanguard (used to play a lot of syndicate too) and my experience is that kiting back with ranged units allows me to win battles very consistently even against stronger forces. Especially in my game since he wiped out the Syndicate fairly early.I recently tried to play a few campaigns as the kirko to test some things and immediately felt like I was playing on a higher difficulty. Lex actually responds to war coordination because hes initially very powerful. Becoming Empress with Oracle route and one other ally seems to be the easiest and best route to victory. I made multiple ending saves of that mission in case there was some story effect on Galactic Empire mission availability (there isn't). The problem is that once they have taken the chosen sector/colony they stop and you need to buy their support for another 40 influence to do something else. Wiping out 1-2 enemy stacks or a colony creates enough of a power imbalance that ally AI will actually accept the coordination request and send their armies in almost immediately. On a serious note, the only way I can get AI to do anything useful on any map, including the second Oathbound mission, is to start invading/hitting my enemies then use war coordination in diplomacy. That's what happens when you side with tree hugging Amazons and chronic losers like ELOP, missing your opportunity at real change and potential.
