Schutze

"Equipped with a heavy weapon slot. Fast and nimble sniper"

The Schütze is a Light Robot with a single heavy hardpoint.

It makes a fast, mobile sniper. Its high speed allows the Schütze to quickly get in position to fire. While reloading, a pilot can easily move back to cover to avoid fire from enemies. This tactic is best with either the KwK 448mm or the ETC Kang-Dae, as the Schütze is less exposed during their long reload periods.

Alternatively, it can be equipped with an ECC Thunder to wreak havoc at close range by closing down enemies with its speed. This setup can injure or even be lethal to heavy robots if the pilot sneaks up on them, and uses its speed to hit and run.

Its distinct grey color, slanted armor design and "Balkenkreuz" markings hint towards German origin. It shares these characteristics with the Boa and Leo.

This robot is not a great early-game hit-run attacker and sniper. It is highly recommended to put a thunder on it instead of a sniping weapon.

Trivia

 * Schütze means marksman in German.
 * The word Schütze is also derived from the German word Schützen, meaning to protect or guard implying the possible role of the robot's sniper support as it can "guard" other robots from long distances.
 * Curiously, the Dutch word "Gevaar", meaning danger, can be seen on the red strips on the back of the turret. The German equivalent of the word is "Gefahr".
