Death Squad On the Move
The Death Squad is, as the name implies, a squad that deals out death. They are the Elite troops sent in to clear out corrupted station (by aliens or cultists), but most have a goal given to them by their commander.
Equipment
Death Squad officers get, by far, the best equipment Nanotrasen has researched over the years.
Armor
Death Squad armor is heavier than normal armor, but is space proof, can take more punishment, and can hold almost anything in its storage.
C-4 Charge
Rarely, some things just can't be shot up by the pulse rifle, that's where this charge comes into play.
Energy Sword
A secondary weapon, it provides the death squad member a close combat weapon, but the Pulse rifle is still better.
Marauder
A heavy, military level mecha. It comes equiped with a pulse cannon, rocket launcher, jetpack, and several other features (including advanced zoom functions). Even this mechas fists are dangerous weapons! When the crew sees these, it is usually a bad sign.
Medical Kit
Sometimes those xenos, or a crew member, might be a lucky hit in, but a standard medical kit fixes that problem.
Optical Thermal Scanners
To find targets to kill with the pulse rifle.
Pulse Rifle
This is the Death Squads tool of choice, if there is anything in their way, they keep firing till it isn't there anymore. It doesn't have a secondary fire, it can only destroy.
Mateba
The secondary weapon of a Death Squad Officer. Does around 60 sharp brute damage to an unarmoured target, and 90 point blank. Useful if someone has taken your pulse rifle.
Pulling Out
Rarely will the Death Squad pull out, but the crew will be joyful when they do. All it requires is a death squad officer to input a code in their computer, and they will leave after a few moments.
Nuke it from Space
The only way Nanotrasen can be sure the situation will be handled correctly is if the nuclear explosive goes off. Should the Death Squad Officers take too many casualties, Nanotrasen will order them to detonate the "disarmed" Nuclear bomb on the station.
Syndicate Strike Force
It is possible a syndicate corporation will send their own force should Nanotrasen send a death squad in, as they would like to recover anything that Nanotrasen feels threatened by. These Squad Members are equipped with the same level gear, and similar mecha. Template:Jobs
