Modern Sniper

The modern sniper is the pinnacle of precision infantry — a specialist equipped with a bolt-action rifle matched to selected ammunition, a variable telescopic sight, and a folding bipod that turns any stable surface into a firing platform. The discipline encompasses ballistics, meteorology, camouflage, and fieldcraft: adjusting turrets for wind drift and bullet drop beyond a kilometer, remaining motionless for hours in a hide of local vegetation. Soviet, German, Finnish, and British snipers shaped both World Wars; Cold War units like the US Marine Scout Snipers elevated the practice to a science. A single confirmed kill at extreme range can freeze a battalion's advance and divert resources to a counter-sniper effort disproportionate to the actual threat. In the game he is the supreme long-range assassin, eliminating armored targets from extreme distances in concealment. He is slow and fragile at close range; once his position is compromised he must reposition immediately.
