Jump Troop

"The Tha' Roon's gots a buncha Warriors they say volunteer to get themselves fused into specially designed suits of armour, what they call Jump Troops. What them scaly chicken-neck Roon scientists have done is grown that cellular-metal skin onto these crazed Assassins o' theirs and then attached a jet engine and guns. Once they get this new equipment fused to their skin, these freaks can then hop a short flight over walls, buildings, even rivers and chasms. I know What you're thinkin' all that new bulk's gotta slow 'em down... they're easy pickin's, Wrongl while they are only vulnerable to attack when on the ground those Jump Troops are as mobile as you or me... Though in your case, that ain't Sayin' much Private Gaurkas, ya fat Bonca! Remember troops, keep yer eyes peeled, The'Roon Jump Troops is a very mobile and deadly aerial and ground combat unit, and ya could get a serious case o'bushwhackin."

Jump Troop is a Tha'Roon War machine unit in War Wind.

Background
An Assassin who has acquired all five Bio-Upgrades and Whose clan has achieved the same dependencies as a Cruiser, can transform into a Tha'Roon Jump Troop. These troops have limited flight ability, making it possible for them to avoid obstacles and outflank enemy formations with greater agility than any other unit.
