Grenadier<\/strong><\/p>\n

– Equips grenade launchers (mortars) and uses high-angle fire grenade attacks

\n– The blast of a grenade attacks a certain range, so it can also be used as a way to destroy sandbags from long distances.<\/p>\n

Scout<\/strong><\/p>\n

– Standard class of the army, which emphasizes mobility
\n– High amount of AP
\n– Scouts have a rifle
\n– The distance at which they can detect hidden enemies is longer than other classes
\n– It exhibits its strength in scouting
\n– Since a Scout\u2019s AP is extremely high, one of its characteristics is the ability to cover a wide range
\n– Its rifle\u2019s range is to some extent longer and its accuracy is higher, but the power of the rifle itself is not as high<\/p>\n

Assault<\/strong><\/p>\n

– Superior combat ability against the enemy soldiers moving out on the front lines in response to information gathered by the Scout
\n– Fire power is concentrated on the front lines, so it uses heavy equipment compared to the Scout
\n– Can attack and counterattack making use of its high attack power machine gun
\n– Bullets from the machine gun easily scatter during rapid fire, so the closer you approach the enemy, the easier it is for all of the bullets to hit<\/p>\n

Engineer<\/strong><\/p>\n

– Specialty: recovery and replenishment on the front line
\n– Can repair tanks and sandbags, as well as remove land mines
\n– Has a \u201cRagnaid\u201d that can revive front line soldiers on the verge of death

Lancer<\/strong><\/p>\n

– Specialty: tank destruction
\n– Equipped with a high armor damage ability anti-tank lance, which essentially makes it the only class capable of destroying a tank
\n– Reistant against blast attacks such as high-explosive projectiles
\n– Since the range of its anti-tank lance is relatively long, it is not suitable for precision-based shooting, so it is important to get closer before attacking
\n– The Lancer does not have high movement power, so it is necessary to keep an eye on its AP as not to run out<\/p>\n

Sniper<\/strong><\/p>\n

– Mainly long-distance sniping
\n– Equipped with a sniper rifle
\n– Can make use of the distance to eliminate distant enemies without fear of counterattack
\n– The Sniper has limited mobility and poor defense, easily taking more damage than other classes
\n– Using the scope while on the aiming screen enables precision shooting from long distances
\n– It is up to the player to decide whether to risk missing a headshot, or aiming for the body which is easier to hit but does less damage<\/p>\n\n\n \t\t\n\t\t\t\t
