When a player is choosing a troop for their character to lead in battle, usually their best options are to choose a troop that shores up one of their shortcomings (such as a wizard choosing a defense-focused troop) or one that can work in tandem with them (such as a rogue picking a stealthy troop). Usually, the GM should pick a limited number of troops for the players to choose from. If two characters want to lead the same troop, they can determine who gets first pick in character by drawing lots, playing a game of chance, or the like.
