So far we got two units that have a drop loadout in Starmada. And really only one forward deploying skirmish unit. So the Raptor is going to be a dedicated drop troop or a skirmiser. I'd be happy for either but I think a heavy infantry drop troop would be fitting for a 'Boarding Squad'
I like those ideas. But sounds so much like the santiago knight. Esp. If they do get the leaked profiles. With drop skills denested a specific variant of tze skill for nuiance and some well themed weaponry maybe?
