Description
Anti-Infantry units are infantry specialized in killing a large number of enemy personnel. Notable among these units is the Second Lyran Armored Infantry, attached to the 32nd Lyran Guards. Though of little use against armored targets, their mix of flechette weaponry can cut through conventional infantry like a knife through butter. [1]
Armament
The primary armament for soldiers of the Second are Mauser & Gray Flechette Needler Rifles, designed specifically for cutting down unarmored targets. For support weapons they are issued Firedrake Support Needlers which, although not much good against armored vehicles, can be used to start fires in buildings or among forested areas.
