From a story perspective, I can see some Volus on the front lines as the situation gets continuously more desperate. However, the idea of them fighting along side some of the most elite operatives in the galaxy and partaking in some of the most high risk and important missions sounds almost laughably ridiculous. I get the point that the situation is getting more and more desperate and even among the races known for being terrible fighters there has to be some good eggs. However, wouldn't these Volus fighters be put to much better use to accomplishing key objectives on planets suited for them? Also, where are the Elcor? I would think they would be of much better use than the Volus, being living tanks and all.

However, from a gameplay perspective I think the Volus are executed well, all things considered, good support units, have really low health, but have a shield boosting power to compensate. Still, if they will add Volus, why not Elcor?
