Imperial Navy Breachers are a 10-12 operative team specializing in close-quarters boarding actions. They favor aggressive melee and short-range shooting with shotguns and power weapons. Their Void Armor makes them resilient against blast/torrent weapons, while Breach and Clear allows devastating double activations. Use Attack/Defence Order ploys to buff your team's offense or defense. They're tough with good saves and wounds, but average speed. Unique operatives like the Endurant tank, Hatchcutter for terrain manipulation, and expendable C.A.T./Gheist units add tactical depth. Perfect for players who want to breach, clear, and dominate the killzone!
