The development of heavy combat armor by the resistance forced ADVENT to deploy these anti-armor units.
Depending on the urgency of the situation and on how subtle ADVENT thinks it needs to be, Demolitionists can come with everything from basic frag grenades to wrist-mounted rocket launchers.Įquipment: ADVENT Mag Rifle, Frag Grenade (on Tier 1 and 2), Plasma Grenade (on Tier 3), Grenade Launcher (on Tier 2 and 3), Rocket Launcher (on Tier 3) Specialists in blowing stuff up, the Demolitionist can wreak havoc on the enemy and the surrounding area with his heavy payload. Other notes: Starting with Tier 2, Snipers and Gunslingers merge into the ADVENT Sharpshooter Sergeant. While the weapons are of shoddy quality and unlikely to inflict critical wounds, the Gunslinger is still able to use them to spread minor lacerations and flesh wounds among opponents.Įquipment: ADVENT Mag Rifle, Light Pistol Gunslingers use light pistols that are cheap to produce in large quantities.
Apparently, ADVENTs supply of higher tier armor seems to lag behind the sheer numbers of troops they produce, or else this Heavy would probably be the standard.Įquipment: ADVENT Mag Rifle, Frag Grenade (on Tier 2 and 3) This gives them the privilege of getting to use better armored vests. – Striker: Uses a shotgun for massive close quarters damageĪDVENT Troopers that show exceptional performance on duty are often promoted to Heavy. – Demolitionist: uses explosives, from Plasma Grenades and Launchers to Rockets – Gunslinger: carries a pistol and uses it with Faceoff
– Heavy: a very basic variant, with extra armor Introducing a number of variants of Troopers is an important step into bringing more strategic depth into combat. Troopers that focus on offense wear red.ĪDVENT Troopers are the most basic and bland unit in the vanilla XCOM game. Troopers with a defensive or utility role have increasing amounts of grey on their armor. For each of those two, 3 variations exist. Variant troopers wear one of 6 different armor patterns: there’s armor suits with grey parts and armors with dark red parts. Troopers provide the main firepower to a group of ADVENT soldiers.
