Looking at the stats, they look pretty interesting. Just a 6 man team, but all of them have a 20" range d6+1 grenade launcher, land warrior system, plus the MG guy, and the ability to take another. Then there's the stealth and infiltration, the bonus to armor when in cover.
Small, maneuverable 5" movement, and able to put out a whopping 20 suppression in one shooting action if prepared. This unit unit could seriously lock down an entire flank so long as there's no vehicles about. Once again, for some reason the more developed armies of the USMC and EFTF seem to be lacking in serious anti tank ability in their infantry units, but only made up by their tanks and vehicles being pretty nasty.
So far, I'm really liking the way spec ops, and other special units, are being handled in BFE. After the big disapointment in how SST special units were handled (spider bugs... with no special web ability or anything?), it looks like the stat writers really got on the ball with BFE.
