Sniper Elite

Four snipers. Snipers are best used against high level and difficult to kill infantry units like a general or a heavy machine gun.


Special Notes: In woodlands, this unit’s ambush skill renders it invisible to enemies unless it is immediately adjacent or has revealed itself by attacking. This unit is able to slow its enemies, halving their movement speed and attack damage until they end a turn. The length of this unit’s weapon allows it to strike first in melee, even in defense. The swarming attacks of this unit become less deadly whenever its members are wounded. This unit’s marksmanship gives it a high chance of hitting targeted enemies, but only on the attack. This unit is able to hide at night, leaving no trace of its presence.
