THOUGHTS ON THE TESTED UNIT'S COST, BALANCE, & DRAFTABILITY: They make for a great screening unit for the Kree Leaders, with Ronan being the best as expected. I think they're about spot on at 30 points. They definitely round out the Kree while not eliminating the usefulness of the Scouts, who actually work well as a back-up leader for the Soldiers.
GENERAL THOUGHTS ON THE TESTED UNIT: I'm liking where they're at and how they play. They aren't very strong unless you get them attacking in numbers which seems thematic for grunts.
