Overview
The Sniper is a unit that can be recruited in a Barracks for $70 and has one of the highest DPS values in the game. It occupies 1 soldier slot. The sniper cannot attack Tanks, planes, or any buildings
Usage
The Sniper can be used in a variety of situations against enemy soldiers. They can be used to defend key points against an attack of enemy soldiers, and can also be used offensively in attacking enemy bases. When attacking an enemy base, it is crucial to keep your snipers behind your soldiers, as enemy units that manage to attack your snipers will do a lot of damage to them, and will very quickly manage to kill them.
Strategies
- Use this soldier when you are up against little to no Tanks or Air Units and your opponent has just built up an army of soldiers.
- Using snipers in quick, mobile units, such as Humvees, Jeeps, or Hovercrafts allows them to be moved around the map quickly, attacking enemy soldiers; when the enemy soldiers try to attack back, you can quickly retreat to take no damage.
- In early game rushing scenarios, snipers are highly important. However, since losing them can be game-changing; using light soldiers as cannon fodder is a good idea.
Trivia
- The default sniper skin does not have a scope on their rifles.
- The default variant is armed with an M16/M4 rifle with an extended barrel rather than an actual sniper rifle.
- The Sniper was in The Conquerors 2 and The Conquerors Mark 2.
