Artillery specialist

Artillery specialists are a body-type in the DS War for Cybertron portion of the Aligned continuity family.'
They can fly in robot mode, but you can't.

One of the most annoying enemies a soldier will face in the Great War is the artillery specialist. Capable of flight while in robot mode, artillery specialists hover in the air and rain plasma death down on the battlefield below. Their ability to make swift darting movements makes them difficult to shoot, but they can sometimes be cornered because they tend to focus on one target to the exclusion of all else.

Notes

[edit]
  • Surprisingly, these guys use the actual jet mode models of the Aerialbot and the Seeker from the console version of the game, (and they also don’t have an animation for being killed while in said vehicle mode, so if their health reaches zero while in jet mode, they stop moving and attacking while becoming completely immune to any further damage, meaning that you can get softlocked if you aren’t careful).
