V ^ ^ V ^ is the jump pack, and the only difference between that and the first one is the < > at the end. Possibly signaling a jump pack that has more horizontal than vertical capabilities? a hover pack?

other than that i can confirm that neither of these exist in the first game, so it will be very unlikely that it’d be another returning stratagem

A hover pack could be helpful to quickly cross bodies of water.

There was a leak of a blink pack - like a brief teleport forwards. It didn’t have any animation but basically recharged like the jetpack to move you maybe 5 - 10m forward instantly

I can’t wait for them to be underpowered and/or bugged

I think the one in the right is a reverse 500kg, so instead of releasing a giant explosion it contains fire/explosions. Maybe like nuking a fire tornado to put it out sorta like how we do that to hurricanes in the real world.

I don’t think it is reverse 500kg (500kg is ⬆️➡️⬇️⬇️⬇️) but that is a cool idea for a stratagem or maybe even a support weapon.

Looks like a blue (support/backpack) or green (sentry or mines)? I’m not an expert on stratagem codes.

Anti-tank mines maybe?

The right one is eerily similar to the ballistic shield (⬇⬅ ⬆⬆➡) so maybe a ballistic wall or something like that? It’s definitely something stationary because there’s no equipment with input shorter than 5.

Don’t really have an idea what the left one might be. The only one that seems close to it is the Quasar Cannon (⬇⬇⬆⬅ ➡) so I don’t know, maybe some sort of a laser sentry? Quasar sentry?

Since they added the TD style mission, I think they’ll probably add more defensive stratagems soon
