So you basically base it on Do I want First Go at Turn 1, or Do I want to counter each of my opponents drops. Of course, the chance to go twice in a row also makes going second a nice incentive to not drop them all at once too. I guess you just base your decision on your opponents army, size, and what scenario you’re playing. Plopping everything down in one go might mess up grabbing objectives later on, etc.

Huh...I had no idea you could drop a full Battalion as one unit. That’s interesting. So in a 1k pt game, if your battalion is the whole army with no extras, you can pretty much guarantee that you go first? You don’t have to roll for it? That’s a pretty nice incentive to use them in smaller games.
