Full Spectrum Dominance Solo Swarm Test

The solo swarm mode has been available for testing for quite some time, but only recently was I actually able to set up a game. When playing solo (and not only then) I like to know the rules, but I do not want to understand the deep meaning and strategies of how to play (at least not from the very beginning). I like to take an approach to learning by feeling. It's a new game mode, which I want to experience in the same way Marines from the Sulaco experienced xenomorphs in Aliens 2 ;) What does that mean exactly? I knew how the swarm would move and that it would use cards but I did not try to understand what's the optimal strategy for dealing with them, what actions I should take and which I should avoid.
