    That's right. Try not to let that happen. ;-)

    Because infantry and PA infantry can't be hit with GMS in DSII.

    An infantry walker can carry GMS/H which allows taking out heavy
bunkers
or big vehicles, which a GMS/L couldn't take out. Also with the free
pintle
mounted APSW, it can give longe range Antipersonnel fire support. A
combination anti-tank system and APSW team. Just watch out for opposing
GMS.
