Ninjitsu Squad

Post by Kamikaze Samurai »

The Ninjitsu Squad is composed entirely of shinobi wearing exosuits.

Their signiture attack is to activate Reaper then fleche themself into a good position to use the shredder gun.

You're crazy
And then you wonder why you explode the Roof away underneath your feet and fall to your death.

Works alright until you have to leave something uncontrolled because you ran out of actions or you have to leave someone in the open because MECs don't give a damn about being near cover. Fun times tho.

Needs Faceoff as well as EXO. Needs battle scanners (or Scanning Protocol specialist) so you can EXO through walls/ceiling (pods are nicely bunched up before being activated). Disagreed on going so all-in with the class composition - 4 would be a nice number and the remainder being support/backup. If the spec has CP then you've taken solo Drones out of the equation.

Better depends on the mission.

Gunner squad has more raw firepower but the entire ninjitsu squad starts concealed on revealed start missions and the entite squad is not revealed if one of them attacks or gets spotted.

Perfect for extractions or smash and grab.
Also good for those run all over the haven tagging civilians missions because they can mass-fleche the reinforcement pods from halfway accross the map and save the shredder guns for mutons.

Gunner squad will kill FPS also.
Just put them all on suppression - it is always crazy battle .
Tank Assault Close range Specialist Squad is the funniest - AI suicide on mass scale.
