New Major Order - New Stratagem Choice
New Major Order - New Stratagem Choice
MAJOR ORDER: Helldivers, it's time to choose between liberating Choohe or Penta. Depending on your choice, you will receive either the MD-17 Anti-Tank Mines or the RL-77 Airburst Rocket Launcher.
(And you'll save the citizens. Don't forget the citizens.)
Edit: Each planet has the stratagem associated with it as an Environmental Condition so we can test them out!

The mines look like they'd be really good at dealing with enemy reinforcement calls (apparently they also make very quick work of factory striders), but I feel like the rockets will offer more frequent utility overall. Really tough call, to be honest.
The rockets would be the clear choice if they weren't another backpack strat. 🤦🏽♂️
They look kinda cool but are definitely meant to deal with swarms. They do slap pretty hard though. Haven't tried it on a heavy yet though, it killed too many friendlies on my first run with it this morning.
Yeah, that tracks. 🤪
I'd fired one off and instead of going towards the enemy it triggered the cluster in my face and the faces of my fellow Helldivers who were near me... 😵
Sounds like my debut run with the laser "guard" dog that immediately killed the two randos in my squad, then a few roaches rushing me (that I was about to shoot, if it weren't for the shouting in my ears), and then just hovered there, oblivious and/or smug. 🤦🏽♂️
