This creates a trooper in a futuristic looking astronaut suit with a laser gun. The unit attacks every 1/10th of a second, deals 15 damage, have 15 range and 100 hit points. Due to its attack and range, it is virtually indestructible. However, use it with caution as it is vulnerable to conversion if the unit is left unsupervised.
