Technical: Primary: Rifle(default), SMG or Shotgun; Secondary: Gauntlet
Heavy Weapons
This soldier is trained to use the XCOM gauntlet, a combination Rocket Launcher and Flamethrower. The Rocket Launcher carries one rocket initially and that has a three-tile radius for its area of effect. The flamethrower is a short-range weapon that causes damage to multiple targets within a cone-shaped area of effect. Using either gauntlet ability requires one action and ends your turn. |
