Shock Infantry

Shock Infantry are elite soldiers trained for the purpose of breaking through enemy lines and storming fortified position with assault rifles, shotguns, and heavily shielded armour.
==Order Shock Trooper==
Order Shock Troopers are rarely seen elite frontline veterans who travel in small heavily armoured squads for the purpose of spearheading through fortified lines and positions. In less common use, the Order Shock Troopers have been seen sweeping up after the main advancement forces. Often equipped with assault carbines and shotguns, OSTs can storm and breach urban strongholds with ease.
Along with their fearsome CQC firepower, the thick suits of powered armour they wear shrug off most bullets and shrapnel with minimun damage, while their shields absorb most of the force of any anti-infantry explosives. Reports by survivors from various OST encounters suggest that heavy machine guns or anti-material rifles of a .50 caliber or greater can rip through the armour at close-to-medium range but, rapidly decrease in effective damage over any range beyond that. The power suits worn by OSTs also act as exo-skeletons that increase strength and speed, making the already formidable units that much worse.
Upon recent capture and studying of the Shock Trooper suits and their users, a rare feat given that the suits almost always engulf in flames upon the user being killed to prevent capture, has given a startling insight on the Shock Troopers the Order Alliance use. Instead what was thought as a suit of powered armour was actually an exo-skeleton which deemed a huge sacrifice from the user: their bodies had been adapted and fused like a second layer of skin quite literally, with the full amputation and replacement of their limbs, and cybernetic interfaces installed.
==Remnant Shock Infantry==
Remnant Shock Infantry have yet to be seen or displayed, though R&D teams have stated that their own counterpart troops are a possibility if given the necessary time and resources, including manpower.
==Trivia==
*Shock Infantry have been compared to SPARTAN-IIs and IIIs MJOLNIR Mark-V power suits.
