Starship Troopers: Terran Command - Raising Hell

A NEW ADVENTURE

A series of 7 new campaign missions and 3 new challenge missions tell the story of the struggle on planet Gehenna - an unforgiving hellscape engulfed in molten lava, volcanic eruptions, and hordes of Arachnids.

Human interest in the sector is centered on Vilon Station, a majestic space station orbiting just above the planet’s atmosphere. A stream of massive freighters feed the station’s endless thirst for fuel, extracted and refined through industrial facilities on Gehenna’s surface.

Being located in the center of profitable trade routes between the planets Earth, Kwalasha and other Federation colonies, Vilon Station serves a vital nexus for commerce, refueling and resupply.

Until now, the protection of personnel on Gehenna has been in the hands of contracted mercenary groups, composed of gritty veterans and adventurers. With the expanding fronts of the Bug War however, Arachnid hostility has been sharply escalating. In light of this perilous situation, Vilon Station’s director has implored the Sky Marshal to dispatch the Mobile Infantry to Gehenna. Their mission: to take over from the mercenaries and safeguard humanity against the ravenous Bug hordes!

ADDITIONAL TOOLS & FIREPOWER

New Mercenary and Vilon Station units:

• Engineering Biped
  While not initially designed for combat, the solid structure of this bipedal vehicle has proven effective as an improvised frontline defense against Arachnid attacks. Its drilling arm can screw up any Bug that dares to come near, and through creative use of the machine's fuel system it can lay down screens of smog and fire.
• Frag Mercs
  These mercenaries specialize with a weapon that can fire both fragmentation shells for devastating close range barrages and contact grenades for medium range, indirect fire support. Experienced “Frag Mercs” are often skilled in the deployment of various types of landmines.
• Shredder Mercs
  Carried by the biggest, toughest mercenaries, the “Shredder” portable minigun can effectively mow down swaths of Bugs and can even rip through the armor of the larger Arachnids. The heavy weapon can also be mounted on a tripod for increased accuracy and rate of fire.

New Mobile Infantry units:

• Powered Suit Incinerators
  Aching for more firepower, these experimental squads of Powered Suit Troopers have been equipped with powerful flamethrowers. Useful whenever you need to wipe a room of Bugs!
• Powered Suit Officer
  These officers wear the same advanced exoskeleton armor as the elite powered suit troopers. It provides them with excellent mobility and protection to direct fire missions and call in reinforcements in the hottest of battlegrounds.

EVOLVED ARACHNIDS
The Arachnids on Gehenna have evolved into several distinct subspecies that are especially adapted to the infernal environment. Federal Intelligence has publicly released intel report about these new Bug threats:

• Stinger
  A small, fragile Bug that launches heated projectiles. They may not appear very threatening individually but are often encountered in numbers, especially around their towering nests.
• Immolator
  These monstrosities eject an incendiary substance that burns everything it touches. Battlefield reports have shown the Bug to burst into flames when mortally wounded, causing it to charge forward before exploding in a big ball of fire.
• Pyrofly
  A flying bug that can hover and spray an area with a burning substance. Due to its thick exoskeleton, the Bug is difficult to destroy with standard rifle fire.
• Bomberbee
  Small flying Bugs who will dive into their enemy and explode on impact. The violent explosion can rip a man in half and punch through armor plating.

Starship Troopers - Terran Command is a thrilling real-time strategy game set in the Starship Troopers movies universe. Take command of the Mobile Infantry and do your part in the war against the Arachnid threat. Build, develop and control your armies to strike an effective balance between tactical superiority and strength in numbers. Ensure that human civilization, not insect, dominates the galaxy now and always!

Story Campaign:
The population of the harsh desert planet Kwalasha needs our help. Their daily lives of hard work in the mining industries has been disturbed by a new danger that they cannot face alone: the Arachnid. The Mobile Infantry will swiftly move in, take back control over the planet and smash everything that has more than two legs. Take part of this exciting military campaign, meet unique characters, see amazing locations and experience the heroic war against the Bug - all presented live on FED NET!--

Tactics & Numbers:
While the Arachnids can rely on virtually limitless numbers, the Mobile Infantry must develop effective tactics to overcome this imbalance. Deploy your units at strategic locations to cover vital choke points and gain superior firepower through tactical use of elevation levels. Be wary, however, that battle mechanics such as True Line of Sight and True Line of Fire also allow Bugs to lay ambushes around every corner, as they are well known for their use of surprise attacks and deception.

Units & Abilities:
An expansive range of unique units, weapons, and special abilities are at the disposal of M.I. commanders. Infantry squads armed with Morita Assault Rifles and MX-90 Fragmentation Grenades form the mainstay of your forces. Rocket Troopers deliver deadly payloads with pin-point accuracy while Engineers are vital to shore up defensive positions with MG turrets, barricades, and minefields. As a campaign progresses, technological breakthroughs unlock the true potential of the Federation’s arsenal with E-Pulse rifles, TAC Fighter airstrikes, heavily armed Marauder mechs, and many more developments optimized for spraying Bug ichor across the battlefield.
