Description

Many in the Mobile Infantry consider these to be the ‘original’ Skinnies, first encountered on colony worlds at the edge of the Federation. Sharing much in common with the under-equipped militia, raiders are the Skinnie equivalent of civilians, though they all have some degree of military training, surpassing the brief compulsory service of the militia. In effect, raiders operate as reserve forces within the Skinnie military, though they are seen in many armies. Encased in simple power suits, raiders are able to fight in any environment and can be fielded by most tribes in large numbers. They are used primarily for low-priority raiding missions (hence the name) and as a light ambushing force in larger battles, brandishing constrictor rifles and a variety of smaller, more specialised pistols.

Raiders form a good, solid core unit for most Skinnie armies, especially those led by a Warchief who can greatly enhance both Raiders and Militia in battle.
