[edit] Enemies
Malices army was made of just rogue tan infantry at first but swell to a much larger size as Malice's operations continued.Here is a list of units in his army.
Grunt: This foe is weak and has just plain tan on.They usually use assault rifles and are met in large numbers in early parts of the game.
Shotgun Unit:This foe has some red on and usually uses only a shotgun but during different parts of the game they do use assault rifles as well.
Grenadier: This unit is distinctive because of their blue breast plate and more muscular build.Contrary to their name most of these units used automatic rifles rather than grenades.When they do use grenades they throw them from a distance until Sarge gets close when they pull out a shotgun.
Spotters/Snipers:These foes wear blue coats and and safari hats.The spotters usually only have carbine rifles but later in the game begin using sniper rifles.Though they can call in air strikes and artillery strikes which makes them quite dangerous.The snipers lie in wait in high elevation like towers and can be very effective if you meet them in an open area.
Commanders: These units are tougher than most other units.They are noticeable because of wearing blue stripes and having blue British style hats.They use bazookas and flame throwers most of the time but their weakness is flame thrower which can kill them nearly instantly.They command the other units and have a higher rank.
Special Commanders:While these foes aren't actually commanders they are dressed like them and use flamethrowers except that they are invisible.Very few exist because Sarge destroyed the machine that made them before they went into mass production.
VEHICLES---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- There were also several vehicles in the tan army that were quite strong and hard to defeat and appeared as boss fights in the early parts of the game.
