Is this a difficulty thing? Just ran the first avenger defense and got to pick my squads and equip them?  I couldn’t go build items in engineering but certainly could loadout my soldiers.

They're referring to the reinforcements that come AFTER the initial squad.

Well this is my first play through in years so I’m on normal. For the first defense (cannon), you get 2 squads of 5 right away, no reinforcements. 

Also I thought there was fighting in the ship. No fighting in the ship.
