- Description: Shock jump troopers are elite, large infantry units specializing in rapid, aggressive assaults designed to overwhelm enemy positions and break through fortified defenses. Trained to excel in high-intensity combat situations, these troops are often deployed at the forefront of an attack to spearhead offensive operations. Despite being uncommon, there are enough shock troopers to support major campaigns, and they can be replaced as needed to sustain operations. Equipped with advanced Kainite weaponry and armor, shock jump troopers are renowned for their resilience and ability to sustain heavy fire suppressing fire while maintaining their advance. Their primary role is to disrupt and destabilize enemy lines through direct and decisive action, making them a critical asset in achieving swift and impactful victories on the battlefield.

Their primary objective is to disrupt enemy lines, cause confusion, and secure key positions swiftly, thereby providing a strategic advantage and paving the way for the main force to advance.
