Tankbusta

Having experienced the immense thrill of annihilating enemy armour, Tankbustas now live for nothing else. Armed with a huge Rokkit Launcha, these ranged anti-vehicle infantry can bring down any enemy vehicle and deal bonus damage to Skimmers. Fueled by their love of big explosions, their Loot ability allows them to strap a bomb to their very own pet squig. Sending the beast charging towards the enemy, its inevitable explosion will cause major damage to those unlucky enough to be caught in its wake.

The pet squig ability makes Tankbustas rather unique among the anti-vehicle infantry of the three factions; they can be very effective against enemy squads of infantry, something that anti-vehicle infantry are usually terrible against. Never underestimate them no matter what you send against them! A Doctrine is available that allows bomb squigs that have no targets to burrow into the ground and become a stealthed landmine, and another Doctrine grants the Tankbustas a ranged Rokkit Barrage ability.
