Dust Tactics: The Boss

Dust Tactics: The Boss

[FFG DT012]

Two new Dust Tactics expansions bring amazing versatility to your battles!

Both The Boss and Kommandotrupp have the Command Squad ability, making them indispensable in overseeing your other forces. Their exceptional motivational skills even allow them to reactivate units that you've already used! What's more, both squads have the Artillery Strike ability, meaning they can serve as spotters for any friendly tank armed with Artillery!

The Boss is a squad of Allied officers, and they're on the battlefield to ensure that every order is perfectly executed. Like other Rangers, the Allied Command is equipped with assault rifles and a machine gun, but their real strength lies in their ability to coordinate the attacks of other units. Known for its powerful leadership capability, this unit is a high-priority target that must be protected at all costs. But used wisely, they'll tip the balance in your favor!

MEDIUM ASSAULT WALKER: POUNDER
     The Medium Combat Walker Model M2-C is lovingly referred to as "Pounder" by Allied Soldiers. This is likely due its tendency to pound opponents into twisted piles of flesh and metal with its massive, long range 17 Pdr. Gun.

MEDIUM ASSAULT WALKER: HOT DOG
     Despite its name, there's nothing cute or cuddly about the Medium Combat Walker Model M2-B, nicknamed "Hot Dog." Boasting two large-caliber MGs for use against infantry and air support, Hot Dog can also roast close-range opponents with his fearsome Napalm Thrower.

MEDIUM ASSAULT WALKER: MICKEY 
     Quick and agile, the Allied Medium Combat Walker Model M2-A, also known as "Mickey," is a versatile addition to any mission. This medium-range anti-infantry walker can even manage its own damage control with its innovative self-repair ability.

MEDIUM ASSAULT WALKER: STEEL RAIN
     The Medium Combat Walker M2-F, or “Steel Rain,” is a mobile dispenser of mass destruction. Although its mighty rockets don’t leave any space to carry the .50 cal, and the weight of the frame and the artillery shells prevent “Steel Rain” from jumping over obstacles, these minor drawbacks are overshadowed by an impressive armament. Its 4.2’’ rockets can set sizable areas of the battlefield aflame and annihilate the enemy, and its massive mortar fires explosive shells weighing 20 kilos each!
