Description

Stalkers are massive siege weapons often deployed as base-breachers or used to defend large areas from enemy assault. AFS units near a Stalker’s base are subject to wave after wave of plasma damage—there is no benefit to directly assaulting Stalkers in this way. Instead, squads or lone troopers should attack Stalkers from slightly longer range, using EM rifles and launchers. Logos-receptive troops should also employ Lightning. These attacks have a much greater chance to pierce each Stalker’s immense shielding.
