Gaiaterra: Elysea's Conflict/Musketeer

"Scopes cleaned."

-...

The Musketeer is the main sniper infantry of the Community of Cantha. Planned to be voiced by.

Tactical analysis

 * I'll take that jumbuck: Formed from the past of press-ganged rustlers and poachers, the Musketeer is the Canthan sniper specialist. Armed with a sniper rifle, the Musketeer annihilates enemy infantry and even does decent damage against enemy battlesuits.
 * Clip the wings: Unlike other snipers, the Musketeer has a weapon that fires fast enough that, with the proper alignment and scope, can double their weapons range and do respectable damage against enemy aircraft. This means, however, that the Hunter is unable to move.
 * What I Can with What I Have: Each Musketeers rifle is also reinforced to fire explosive metalstorm charges instead of mere bullets, which wreaks havoc amongst close-packed foes and light vehicles.
 * Not so fast: Even the Voshkod and Minuteman sniper forces have faster firing weapons than the Musketeer, who needs to reload each round one at a time after firing.

History
"What? Afraid of a little thunder, child? Hide beneath your bed, lest my thunder strikes you dead."

-...

Musketeers, taking their name from the first Serpents to use firearms, are without a doubt, the haughtiest of the Clans, even amongst the Serpent, fighting ranks. Proud of their costly weapons and the training it takes to fire them accurately, they tend to strut about the barracks in a way that does little to endear them to the other troops. Yet none mock their self-important bravado. As these snipers, for all of their bragging, have the skills to back up their boasts, and they rarely miss their targets. And their rifles, compared to the standard sniper rifles, are also reinforced by Mender magic, allowing it to fire explosive Metalstorm charges instead of mere shot, wreaks havoc amongst close-packed foes. With specially made scopes allowing them to strike further away, even outranging some snipers, with devastating accuracy.

Although their guns punch through armor and flesh with frightening efficiency, they are also cumbersome and suffer from a slow rate of fire. In truth, Musketeers are also respected for the courage it takes to keep shooting even as the enemies close in. And, for all that boasting, they do give credit and gratitude for the heavier armored forces for protecting them.
