One of the best features in tactical RPG Wartales is the large range of specializations you can choose for your companions. These allow you to create the exact squad you want to command in battle, whether you want to go ranged or melee heavy, or somewhere in between. Personally, I like to focus on tanks and rangers, so it was great to find a hidden fourth ranger specialization to try out.
