Kalran: Tales of the four nations/Ghost

"Ghost ready to infiltrate."

-A Ghost exiting the crawler

The Ghost is the elite sniper infantry of the ADF. Planned to be voiced by Todd Haberkorn, using a fusion of his doc McCoy and drifter voice from desperados 3 and destiny 2.

Tactical analysis

 * The silent death: Formed from sniper aces. The Ghost the worlds deadliest snipers, able to kill anything short of another ADF infantry or vehicle with their plasma railgun sniper rifle. And can set up a teleportation point so that in the event their position is compromised they can quickly escape
 * Hunting lure: In order to snipe perfectly, the Ghost are equipped with state of the art hologram projectors, and when deployed, can make an unnoticeable decoy. And upon the unit firing upon the decoy will immediately notify the Ghost and mark it's weakpoint, meaning the the Ghost return fire will likely see the shooter killed for taking the bait
 * No where to run: And if the Ghost finds a particulary tough target they can focus and charge up their rifle. Firing a shot that will kill its target, with exception of epic units, and one the Ghost has his target sighted they can only run
 * Wait for it: But this power and range comes at the cost of having an abysmal rate of fire, which worsens if the enemy gets close to them, and their weapon producing a noise loud enough to easily pinpoint where it came from. And being a sniper they can be easily overwhelmed
