 What should the perfect all purpose squad look like?
 
 NOTE: I am creating this thread to discuss what such a squad should look like if all the roles were properly designed/defined (see assaults). It is a thought experiment to maybe help tighten up concepts for suit roles. For a more no holds barred/ your playstyle version of this discussion, look for the follow up thread "The Asskickingest Squad".
 
 I'm thinking in general
 
 
  3 Assaults
 1 Scout
 1 Logi
 1 Heavy
 
 or maybe
 
 
  2 Assaults
 1 Commando
 1 Scout
 1 Logi
 1 HMG
 
 
 What say you?

 1x CalScout
 1x GalScout
 2x Amarr Sentinel
 1x Amarr Logi
 1x Some Other Logi
 
 EDIT: Oh right, properly designed. Okay, new squad.
 
 2x Assault
 2x Logistics
 1x Scout
 1x HMG
 
 1x Assault
 2x Logistics
 2x HMG
 1x Scout
 
 
 
 I think Logistics is the most valuable role on the battlefield. My preference for all those logis would be that they're all Amarr, for the uplinks. With that many (even just twelve) 4s spawns, everyone else's slots would be freed up.

 It looks like
 
 2x Pure Monster Assaults
 
 2x Commando ( 1x Long Range 1x AV compatible preferably Shield)
 
 1x Baller Impervious Sentinel
 
 1x On the Spot Support Logi
 
 
 See if you can figure out who is who.

 Change Long Range Commando to a Scout and you've got my ideal squad.
 
 Gotta have some mobility.

 1 x Scout
 
 Assaults are more versatile than the Commando, but the ability for the Commando to respond to both infantry and vehicles is unparallelled. If I was looking for a squad for a specific purpose the Assault might get a look in, but for a general purpose/respond to any threat squad I'd go the above.

 Cloaking is for cowards to afraid to face their foes in the field.

 I would say the Ideal Squad would be ;
 
 -2 Assaults
 -1 Commando AV
 -1 Sentinel
 -1 Logi (good logis can take care of their hole squad by themselves
  ) -1 Scout
 
 Right now in order to achieve this the best squad set up would be;
 
 -2 Amarr Assaults (only Assault with a decent weapon bonus)
 -1 Minmitar Commando. (bonus to swarms and Combat rifle for defense. can carry their own ammo)
 -1 Amarr Sentinel (because two damage mods, a Six Kin, and over 1000 armor means F**K you)
 -1 Minmitar logi (best reps as well as can carry Needle, ammo, and uplinks)
 -1 Caldari scout (because their passive bonus helps the squad other scouts bonuses do not)
 
 Of course right now there are far more effective squads out there.
