Heavy Weapons Squads are teams of gun crews that can swiftly set up their arsenal of portable armaments. They bolster battle lines and provide close fire support with adaptable loadouts of precise or indiscriminate firepower. While massed infantry can overwhelm the foe, it often falls to these teams to deliver the killing blow.
Individual Heavy Weapons teams can split up from the squad in order to defend more ground with fields of fire. However, under such circumstances, coordination becomes difficult and without the presence of a nearby officer able to shout or relay messages these squads are likely to remain very immobile, lacking the coherency provided by being near to a squad vox operator.
