Overwatch builds combo exceptionally well with Flush support, especially in conjunction with holo targeting, for good shots that will often crit due to the exposed bonus (+50% crit chance). Be wary of enemies that don’t care about Overwatch (such as drones) that might distract your infantry from more pressing threats. Also beware of any enemy that might have Lightning Reflexes such as Thin Men and Chrysalid's. In the long run consider converting Overwatch infantry into Valkyrie MECs.		\|Strategic Analysis=As with all Infantry, find a good spot to sit in pre-battle so you can take 2 actions per turn with LEU.

The core perk is Suppression; in addition to its usual role in locking down a specific target, it also innately encourages attacks from both the target of the suppression as well as other aliens, who will attempt to break the Suppression and free up their comrade by attacking the user if they don't have a good kill or flank shot they can make. Suppression-based tanks are sometimes known as "Taunt" tanks as a result. Lock N'Load boosts the reliability of this Suppression by allowing you to maintain it every turn, even on the relatively low ammo capacity of an assault rifle. The bulk of the rest of their perk selections is devoted to improving their durability, in the hopefully unlikely event that they do take damage. Steadfast prevents them from panicking on hit, Will to Survive boosts their DR, Resilience negates crits, and Extra Conditioning gives a massive survivability boost.
	\|Strategic Analysis=Tank Infantry are the soldiers you want on the front-line. They should take ~~the half-~~cover position ~~(unless everyone else visible to the aliens also has full cover)~~ closest to the alien positions (but still at mid-range)~~. Similarly, don't give the Tank Infantry smoke cover unless all other potential targets have equal smoke cover too~~. It is more important that the cover be indestructible than low/high, as this soldier is vulnerable to cover destruction. Each turn, the soldier should shoot ~~once~~, and then suppress ~~or Command, if an Officer~~. They are not expected to do major damage to the enemy: the shot is free and any hit is a bonus. The ~~aim~~ is ~~simply~~ to have a ~~soldier who continues~~ to ~~contribute~~ to the ~~firefight while~~ also ~~providing maximum damage absorption~~. ~~Finally,~~ Tank Infantry make ~~excellent~~ officers: they get +8 Will from their first two perks and would be good choices for the first Lieutenants you promote. Their battlefield role puts them front and center in the squad: those who need the Will bonus (and other officer benefits) most are likely to be close to the Tank Infantry.		\|Strategic Analysis=Tank Infantry are the soldiers you want on the front-line. They should take an indestructible full cover position closest to the alien positions (but still at mid-range). It is more important that the cover be indestructible than low/high, as this soldier is vulnerable to cover destruction. Each turn, the soldier should shoot (or reload with LnL), and then suppress with their second action. They are not expected to do major damage to the enemy: the shot is free and any hit is a bonus. For officers, Command is also a good choice for your second but you lose the taunting effect of Suppression if you do. Note that bringing a Tank Infantry does not mean you can neglect protective choices on the rest of the squad. The AIs targeting priority is roughly as follows: #1 potential one shot kills (including but not limited to flanks), #2 flank shots (even if unlikely to kill), #3 groups they can grenade/acid spit, #4 foes using suppression, and #5 the highest accuracy shot they have. You must shore up #1, #2 and #3 with good positioning and play on your entire squad, leaving the Infantry as the main target for #4. Leaving aside Mechs and SHIVs, only Assaults can compete as main "tanks" or fire magnets: Assaults can get many of the same protective perks as Infantry, get slightly more Health per rank, and can stack defensive items without as much offensive penalty but don't have access to suppression for taunting, and thus must make a deliberate attempt to make their Defense the lowest of the entire squad in order to tank with #5 instead of #4 (e.g. sit in Low Cover, use Reinforced Armor, build on a low base defense unit). You can do the same thing with Tank Infantry, of course, as a backup plan in case you can't Suppress this turn (and you need to pre Suppression), but it also means you get hit more often during Suppression, which is consequentially less reliable as a lockdown tool. Tank Infantry make solid officers: they get +8 Will from their first two perks and would be good choices for the first Lieutenants you promote. Their battlefield role puts them front and center in the squad: those who need the Will bonus (and other officer benefits) most are likely to be close to the Tank Infantry.

Crit stacking guarantees crits on exposed enemies and gives you a coin flip to land them on Hardened or in cover enemies too. Executioner makes Infantry a very reliable cleanup option in the early game against weakened foes with its +10 aim bonus, especially since LEU gives them two shots for that +10 aim bonus to go to work on; it's less useful for its crit chance, though it can help against tough enemies with good HP and DR. Agg and BEO is core and forms the bulk of your damage output. SS can be dropped for LnL if you prefer having more shots over more consistent crits, though Ranger will mitigate some of the ammo issues you run into if you invest in a good sidearm in addition to its reliable +1 damage. Extra Con can be dropped for VPT if you prefer raw damage over survivability and consistency. Rapid Fire can also be taken for maximum potential damage output, but will burn through your ammo at alarming rates if you don’t have Lock N’ Load to feed the gun.
	\|Strategic Analysis=Crit Infantry greatly appreciate holo targeting ~~support~~ and cover destruction support from rocketeers, engineers, and Collateral Damage MECs. If possible, try to bring a target down to half hp before shooting to activate Executioner (conveniently this often happens for free while destroying cover, especially in early game). When you get swarmed by several aliens at once, aim for the big guy and let Bring ‘Em On do the rest. One massive crit on a dangerous threat can swing battle tempo in your favor, nevermind two.		\|Strategic Analysis=Like with all infantry, find a good spot to sit in pre-engagement so you can fire 2 shots a turn with LEU. Crit Infantry greatly appreciate holo targeting, shredder rockets, and cover destruction support from rocketeers, engineers, and Collateral Damage MECs. If possible, try to bring a target down to half hp before shooting to activate Executioner (conveniently this often happens for free while destroying cover, especially in early game). When you get swarmed by several aliens at once, aim for the big guy and let Bring ‘Em On do the rest. One massive crit on a dangerous threat can swing battle tempo in your favor, nevermind two. Just don't put yourself in a situation where you have to rely on crits landing against Hardened or in Cover enemies. Make your attempts relatively early in the turn: if one or both crit, great. If it doesn't, use the rest of your squads actions to mitigate the threat, like deploying Smoke, Suppressing the target, and so on.
