More from this faction
Conscript
Civilians answering the Soviet call to arms. Enlistment is free, so the price is mostly the rifle and the coat. They soak a little more punishment than the GI next door.
Flak Trooper
Convicts looking for a pardon, hauling flak guns that throw hot shrapnel at aircraft and anyone unlucky enough to be nearby.
Tesla Trooper
Heavy insulated armor and a man-portable Tesla arc. Vehicles especially regret meeting one.
