Missile Boat

Missile Boat is a battlefield role performed by certain models of 'Mechs, primarily those that are armed with long-range missiles.

Description

Missile boats are known for their use of long-range missiles as a primary weapon in the mission of fire support, whereby they attack the enemy from a protective distance with indirect fire. In order to either protect the Missile boat or take full advantage of its mission, Skirmishers and Strikers generally close with the targeted enemy units, while the fire-support launches from behind full cover, such as a hill.
