Flame Trooper

Overview
The Flame Troop is a premium light infantry unit armed with a flamethrower that strikes out at the front 3 squares with fire damage. Critters are typically susceptible to fire damage, and most vehicles have little-to-no resistances to fire.

Unfortunately, their limited range puts them at risk. Shortly after reaching level 11 and finishing the quest chain relating to Iron Deposits you will be granted two Flame Troops for free, well before you can build your own (with nanopods). Be careful though, because losing one so early in the game will cost valuable resources to heal them.

Overview
The Flame Troop is a premium light infantry unit armed with a flamethrower, and is considerably useful for handling massed soldiers. This unit hold only four shots per combat, and can only attack at a range of one row. Their flamethrowers are useful against Animal-type enemies (such as Raptors or Boars), or other infantry units.
