BakaHoushi said: I think that should read "Why would you use lancers at all?" Damage boost + one shock trooper or scout can kill pretty much any tank in the game.
But shocktrooper's move are limited and I don't think scouts got enough firepower to blow tanks in one turn. Lancers can blow up tanks from faraway places and in one shot if it hits the engine. One of the reason why I put my lancers in the back.
I corrected everything I could in the tags. I have the entire cast list in the official guide so that was a big help. That is indeed Jane Turner with the Ruhm Machine gun and not Catherine O'hara with a sniper rifle. You'll notice the Shock Trooper insignia on her back on her uniform.
There may still be a couple SLIGHT errors there but I think I covered all the recruits.
Oh hey. Got into this game again recently and this picture (and the comments of those here before me) makes me think things:
1) Edy what are you doing in the front you're a camp defender who hates charging into enemy fire. 2) Aww yeah, Jane Turner, best shocktrooper. Pretty, badass, literally no bad traits in her set, and I was lucky enough to roll Fearless Will on her (and apparently none of my other Shocktroopers) so suddenly hearing "You think bullets will stop me?" is music to my ears. 3) Huh. So that's what Damage/Demolition Boost is for. I tried using it on a Lancer and was unimpressed with the results. Thanks, BakaHoushi!
