Composition

The composition of the enemy force will have a large impact on the difficulty of the mission. A force that is composed of infantry will be easier to defeat than a force that has access to armored vehicles.

Marksmen, automatic riflemen, and grenadiers will allow the enemy squad to be more effective in a wider variety of situations. A squad of 4 diverse AI can be more effective than a squad of 8 riflemen in some situations.
