The Pack is meant to be efficient, effective, a well-oiled machine. Last thing we need is to enter combat as a disorganized, chaotic mob where everyone is asking what's going on. The idea is to split the Pack into smaller, easier-to-command squads; the main advantage with squads is that they can support each other to carry out tactical objectives, and to provide relief for each other if something goes south.
Pack Drills are important so that the pack instinctively knows what their roles are once combat is joined, and what their respective squads are responsible for.
Valka is commonly assigned to Charlie Squad, to maintain strategic battlefield oversight and command the reserves; there are currently no reserves to be commanded by Valka, but this may change if we recruit new members in the future. Never underestimate the importance of tactical reserves: many battles in history were won or lost by the critical application of battlefield reserves.
Sjovold is by default the field commander of the pack. While Valka defines the tactical objectives of a mission, Sjovold is responsible for achieving those objectives, decides what squad deployment and operational tactics to employ in combat.
When working with outsiders who do not operate in small-units, standard procedure is to split them up and attach them to individual squads under pack command. This is to ensure that they follow orders in combat, not be distracted by personal concerns, nor waste time arguing over tactical decisions.

- Deployment Notes:
- - This is the default combat deployment.
