ADVENT Rocketeer (LWOTC): Difference between revisions

Revision as of 11:00, 15 September 2023

The Advent Rocketeer is a standard trooper variant with a gauntlet--mounted rocket launcher.

They are only slightly more capable than the standard trooper but their main threat is the rocket launcher which can deal great damage and remove cover exposing our soldiers. Unlike XCOM's Technical's rocket launcher, ADVENT's rockets are more precise having no scatter but are much smaller. Unlike most units, their rocket's do not scale as ADVENT progresses.

Tips

Like most flankable units, they will ideally try to find reasonable cover whenever flanked. This can be taken advantage of if you want to force enemies to move.
Like most units with AOE moves, you ideally want to spread your soldiers out in order to greatly disssuade them from ever using them.
ADVENT rocketters wil ideally find a group of enemies before firing their rocket but also have a 33% chance to fire at a single target. This can only occur if they have two actions so moves that can incentivize using an action first such as flanks can remove this.

+The '''Advent Rocketeer''' is a standard trooper variant with a gauntlet--mounted rocket launcher.
-They are extremely dangerous early on against grouped up XCOM soldiers, as their rocket will do AoE damage and potentially remove any cover for those troops. It is recommended that they are dealt with swiftly before they can fire their rockets. Rocketeers will not fire rockets as a second action, so threatening them with flanking actions can dissuade them from rocketing as they will be inclined to scamper to cover. As opposed to most other units, their rocket's damage will not scale with more advanced versions.
