    Haven’t seen the stats yet on the Coalition Battle Pack, though they may be available somewhere around. Or I guess I could go look them up, as I have the units now, it’s just that I haven’t had time.

    They are probably like all of the other added content, priced appropriately for battlefield statistical attributes. There probably is no imbalance there, they are typically a bit stronger, but cost a bit more also.

    Do you need them? Probably not, no-body really “needs” them.

    Can they be useful? In the hands of a martial artist, a toothpick is lethal. So yes, they can provide an advantage if you know how to put them to work.

    Their direct value is that you may be able to purchase one of these, where you could not normally afford the next step up in units. So you get a better than average instead of an average one, and where you could not afford the best one.

    Ok if you look at the stats the difference may not be that encouraging, but place that better than average unit in a line of average ones, and their stability (the average units) is raised. You could not have done this unless you had a unit of the proper price to fit the situation.

    And that is the imbalance; some players have access to units that others do not have. And it is not that those units provide any super powers, but that they provide “options” that those without do not have, and can not get!
