“ | Marine SPF! - Task Force Commando |
” |
The Task Force commando is the basic, yet elite, infantry unit of the Task Force Talon.
Background
Task Force Talon commandos have been handpicked from all branches of the US military. Their primary role is to provide eyes and ears on the ground for more-powerful units and to clear and defend buildings. Few infantry units can match up with these commandos in urban combat.[2]
Overview
The Task Force Commando is classed as an elite infantry unit yet is still the basic infantry of the Task Force Talon. More powerful than other basic infantry but more costly to train. Yet doesn't really quite match up to some of the other elites.
That said they are still useful for recon and scouting and will dominate against other basic infantry in the early game, thanks to their solid damage and fast firing rate on the basic level. In numbers, they also pose a threat against helicopters as well.
