Infantry Classes
There will be eight different classes of Infantry available in the Infantry Mint, with varying levels of rarity ranging from Uncommon, Rare, Epic and even Legendary. There will not be any Common level NFTs distributed in the mint. Infantry classes includes:
- Light Infantry: Grunt soldiers with assault weapons and limited-use special weapons. Role: Anti-Infantry Assault force for taking and holding objectives.
- Heavy infantry: Specialist soldiers capable of deploying heavy weaponry and armor. Role: Support troops for assault, covering fire, and defense against light vehicles.
- Super heavy infantry: Equivalent of mini mechs — act like light tanks with legs. Equipped in the finest power armor and superior weapons. Role: Infantry support and anti-armor
- Engineer: Specialist soldiers with repair abilities using nano-spanners to repair vehicles and structures. Can deploy drones or small gun emplacements. Role: Repair and fire support.
- Medic: Specialist soldiers that have Nano-Binders to heal and revive infantry. They also can use their Nano-Binders as an offensive weapon to inflict serious damage. Role: Healing and infantry support.
- Scout: Specialists with high mobility to excel at flanking maneuvers. Can provide laser targeting for artillery. Role: Fire support, anti-infantry.
- Sniper: Specialist with long-range anti-personnel or anti-material weapons to take out heavy infantry or light vehicles. Can provide laser targeting for artillery. Role: Fire support and anti-infantry.
- Pilot: Specialists to pilot armored vehicles, aerial warplanes and mechs to give them boosts. A pilot out of their vehicle is vulnerable. They carry small arms and play similarly to light infantry. Role: vehicle boosts.
All infantry classes can take and hold objectives.
