In contrast to its sister regiment, the Second uses a two-step battle plan. First: use long-range weapons to soften the enemy before Second use your mobility to get in to close quarters and finish the engagement quickly. The mercenaries try to capture as much salvage as possible. The command is also known to set ambushes, building false units from scrap with bogus radio traffic as diversionary tactics.<ref name=MSp2224>''Mercenaries Supplemental'', p. 24</ref>
