Overview

Appearance

Based on his real-world counterpart, the appearance of the Combat Rifleman represents a soldier of the Canadian Army in a military uniform, filled with a CADPAT MT camouflage pattern. This military uniform consists of the Canadian CG634/CM735 combat helmet, based off the French SPECTRA helmet, combat goggles, camo jacket with or without elbow pads, a Canadian-manufactured tactical vest (either Fragmentation Protective Vest or Tactical Vest), camo gloves, camo pants with or without combat kneepads, and combat boots. For the variant of the Cold Legion, he is entirely camouflaged in a winter camouflage.

Strategy

Unlike their factionally opposite counterparts, Combat Riflemen are able to fire while moving and get the upper-hand in CQC against most enemy infantry.
