There should be an entirely new section of Strats called: SEAF Troopers
My inner Warhammer 40k is coming out :) Just had this idea talking with a friend...
We have 6 sections currently of Strats:
- Patriotic Administration Centre
- Orbital Cannons
- Hanger
- Bridge
- Engineering Bay
- Robotics Workshop
A 7th could be SEAF Troopers:
- Trooper squad - [5 man] 4 Liberators + 1 MG
- Mortar Squad - [2 man] carrying 1 mortar
- AT Squad - [2 man] 1 Recoilless Rifle + 1 Recoilless Rifle Backpack
- Sniper Squad - [3 man] 3 Diligence Counter Rifles
- Spear Squad - [2man] 1 Spear + 1 Spear Backpack
Ship Modules:
- Stim packs - The squad gets a stim each
- Heavy Armour - Squad gets heavy armour
- Commissar - If you kill 1 of the squad members the remaining members get 10% more damage
On the ship they could sit in a tiny little classroom all looking at a whiteboard with a democracy officer pointing at a whiteboard with a drawn picture of a bug :)
[Huge problem with this is you don't want 20 + npcs running around it would be messy so it would probably have to be limited to 2-4 for the entire 4 man squad of helldivers, or better yet have a shared cooldown]
