I've managed to unlock all the squads and all the pilots. Now I'm making sure I've completed the game on Hard on all variations of the Islands (2, 3, and 4) for each squad. I'm really hung up on the Zenith Guard completing 3 islands. Any suggestions for the right Time Traveller to complete three islands? Two and four islands were pretty easy, but I've been at three for a week. It's a conundrum.

Just saw this thread! I played the game on PC and had a rough time learning it, then beat it pretty easily on my first run on the Switch

I got nowhere near as far as you, but found this article quite helpful:

He rates Zenith Guard as High tier (only 3 squads above it: Frizen Titans, Rift Walkers, Flame Behemoths) so must think they're pretty solid! He does recommend a few pilots for the Charge Mech which might help, though (Mafan, Abe, or Ariadne).

I'm impressed you got so far, after winning I was just happy and had no desire to beat the game with all the mechs . You've already done it with the weakest squads, so that last one should be easy with the right pilot!

I figured it out eventually, or maybe I just got lucky. The trick seemed to be to put the Mantis pilot in the Laser Mech and a different weapon on the Charge Mech ASAP.
