I'll be totally checking this "secret" out too, and since I have a kind of an obvious fixation for sword fighters, and swords in general, skye got really underused for me, but i'll try to check him more closelly, I just kind of used Nala, Laraya, Alicia, Ash, Val and Linda to mow down all the enemies, without even using ordanze (for unit limit reasons, but i'm not complaning). Now i'll try to make the next playthrough more balanced in character use
