Plan your next MENACE session
Our independent guide helps you extract strategic value from MENACE’s deep systems without relying on hidden mechanics. By observing how each documented element interacts, you can craft adaptable plans that survive the unknown threat and shifting faction dynamics.
01 / THE GUIDE
Analyzing Mission Choices
Compare the potential faction impact of each available distress call. Note which allies gain favor and which resources become accessible, then prioritize missions that align with your long‑term strategy.
- Read each distress call to gauge its impact on faction sentiment.
- Track which factions you aid to anticipate future favors.
02 / THE GUIDE
Optimizing Squad Loadouts
Examine each squad’s armor, accessory slots and weapon options. Match high‑damage weapons to heavily armored foes and lightweight gear to mobile enemies, balancing protection with utility.
- Use suppression to limit enemy movement before a pincer attack.
- Adjust weapon choice based on enemy armor and range.
03 / THE GUIDE
Utilizing Vehicles Effectively
Match vehicle mobility and firepower to mission terrain. Use tanks for static defense points, walkers for rapid response, and artillery for distant suppression, considering supply costs.
- Keep high‑performing leaders alive to retain their promotion benefits.
- Consider putting a wounded leader on leave if morale drops sharply.

Managing Faction Relations
Track which factions you assist and which you ignore. Observe how their offers change over time, and adjust your approach to keep at least one reliable ally active.
- Match vehicle mobility to mission objectives—use walkers for fast threats.
- Balance armor protection with utility slots for versatile infantry.

Adapting to Weather and Biomes
Before each battle, note the biome and weather conditions. Adjust weapon ranges and movement plans accordingly, as certain environments can hinder or aid specific unit types.
