Sergeant Bastonne

My Veterans don't suck.

He can issue Orders to Veterans. What's not to like?

I think I'd rather have more men than him, but I can see the attraction others have to him.

When you really really really need a unit taken care of, Bastonne's Veterans are the final ones to call upon for the task.

Note it's still a single fire unit, easily destroyed by your monkey's uncle in CC or via shooting.

Just something to keep in mind.
