Artistic Forces/Infantrywoman

"Infantrywoman, ready for battle!"

- Infantrywoman The Infantrywoman is the Josei Guntai's basic infantry unit. She is planned to be voiced by Erica Mendez. However, her voice must be the same as Megumin's.

Background
The infantrywoman is a land combat soldier and a backbone of the Josei Rikugun, the ground force and branch of the Josei Guntai. More than that, the Infantrywomen are mostly recruited as the teenage schoolgirls, former Japanese idols, otakus, former Visual Kei performers and even cosplayers, fluently trained for task force operations and combat similar to those of the JGSDF, and armed with the Japanese Type 89 assault rifles as their service rifles and Mk 2 grenades to defend themselves from enemy attacks.

Appearance
The Infantrywoman seems to be a Kawaii anime girl in her military combat uniform. Her hairstyle depends on variants of bob cut, shorthair, pigtail, bunches, asymmetric cut, lob, ponytail, longhair or Hime cut, and her hair color depends on what she appears in, most commonly black, brown and dark brown. As a basic soldier, her clothing is a customized JGSDF uniform in a Japanese Flecktarn camouflage that has Type 66 helmet with or without combat goggles, camo jacket with or without elbow pads, combat vest (combat bulletproof vest, Type II body armor or Type III body armor), printed with the Josei Guntai flag and the text "Josei Rikugun" (じょせいりくぐん), camo gloves, camo pants with or without combat kneepads, and Type 2 combat boots.

Strategy
The Infantrywomen are one of the most powerful basic infantry units of respective factions other than the USSDA Infantryman and the GIA Light Infantryman. They are effective enough against most types of infantry. And once the Tatakai no Shimai Protocol is purchased at the Research Center, they fight even more effectively when garrisoned inside buildings, where they can block off groups of lighter vehicles like the technical pickup trucks and buggies. In addition, they may be upgraded with these Rifle Add-Ons: the Rifle Grenades, which give them a bonus bit of burst damage when fighting clustered infantry units, light vehicles, and landed helicopters or VTOL craft similarly to the American Infantrymen, and underslung Bayonets, which give them the ability to use Onna Charge that quickly strikes the enemy infantry and buildings down. Infantrywomen remain ineffective against most anti-infantry units, thus some of these can easily take them out.

Like the other factions with Horde Bonus feature in the game, the Infantrywomen are easily amassed and will work well in groups against other types of infantry, especially when upgraded. The Horde Feminism upgrade improves the effect of the horde bonus, and allows the Infantrywomen to do a lot of damage through a quicker firing rate.

Being easily placed into groups allows the Infantrywomen to become an efficient battling force, especially considering the Horde Bonus. They work well as early game defenses, easily gunning down enemy infantry when in hordes and within radius of Promotional broadcast. When deployed with other Josei Guntai infantry, such as Tai-Sensha Troopers and Heroines, they are able to grant Horde Bonus without having to purchase at least 5 of them. Not only that, but they are able to take down structures easily with heavier infantry, sometimes even being capable of destroying buildings alone in large numbers. Even if they are being challenged by a large amount of infantry in close range, it might be a good idea to attach their rifles with bayonets, and arm themselves in melee combat.

Most importantly, like all basic infantry, Infantrywomen are weak against anti-infantry defenses, vehicles, or aircraft. So do not attack a well defended position with Infantrywomen alone. Support them with tanks and anti-tank infantry. Besides, it is better to scout ahead to see what your opponent has outside of your visual range, but they are completely helpless against aircraft so Taiku Infantrywomen or any anti-air vehicles would come along with them.
