GAMEPLAY FEATURES and DESIGN
DESIGN INTENT
The Assault Infantry composes the large numbers of the enemy forces.
They are most dangerous when in groups and provide powerful support to specialist units in combat.
Their banding nature makes them also excellent at defending other units and antagonizing the player.

AI BEHAVIOUR
The Assault Infatry is a single minded unit that scouts the environment and stays always in groups.
Once they acquire sight of the player, they will shoot without hesitation and, as long as the player remains on sight, they will actively reposition themselves to close the distance and have the player within firing range.
However, once the player will get out of sight, they will stop pursuing the player and return to the troop, always trying to not be singled out.
