Bombardier

Bombardier class

Artillery class of the Dream whose desk-bound holders Boomer expects to flee if crawlers reach their trebuchets.

Story so far

Bombardier is the enemy class that crews the Artillery Batteries hammering crawler positions. Boomer dismisses them with contempt: "Most of those pasty cousin fuckers from the Dream are cowards. At least the ones with the bombardier class. Those are the guys who hump a desk when they're not in here playing genocide."

His tactical read is that they will run if the crawlers get close to their chuckers, but that they will have the emplacements surrounded with traps, so the assault has to be careful anyway. Tran notes only a few actual elves are in the area, and those are the ones running the larger trebuchets.

Role

The Dream's artillery-operator class, effective at range but poor in close combat.
