Yes. It is worth targeting the Colonel, if you see him.
If the Colonel cops it, you lose the squad's additional abilities, even if the other members of the squad survive. e.g. concentrated fire, victor target etc so,you have to resurrect the dead Colonel to get back the abilities - I think Colonel comes back first on reinforcement, if dead
Yeah. That's a bummer. It's quite fun though, seeing the Colonel helping man a weapons team.
lol, and then you'll get another colonel with reinforcements. No sign of officer shortage I guess.
