I used a 6 suit bodyguard at the Heat, but found it somewhat combersome - it just kept falling over itself. By giving each squad member a target lock the unit can nominate a squad, all members can shoot another squad, and then the squad cna charge its orginal target. In the heat 2 suits didn't have locks, and on 2 occasions this meant they didn't do any shooting as i didn't want to risk breaking the target.
The Skyray is there to provide support for the sight-council, the idea being 12 rapid firing plasma rifles hitting on 2s and perhaps even knocking off a cover save point or putting a seeker on the target. Its another mobile scoring unit, and will hopefully draw fire from the council as they advance.
