- "Best o’ British, maggot!"
- ―An Albion soldier taunting Crypto.
The British Army is the Army of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland.
Overview[]
The British Army serves as the second wave of defense in Albion. They are tougher and better trained than the US Army, and are therefore much more likely to kill Crypto.
Much like the military forces of other Invasion Sites, British soldiers utilise APCs and Tanks when defending Albion from alien attack.
The soldiers stationed in Albion seem to have developed a grudge against most of its citizens, particularly those of the “mod” subculture. Many also engage in binge-drinking sessions and various acts of vice when they aren’t on active duty.
British soldiers appear to enjoy insulting Crypto when engaged in combat with him, or when they get close to the Furon in disguise.
Appearance & Equipment[]
British Soldiers are dressed in light green, forest-camo uniforms (trying to look like DPM) and all of them wear green berets (which the only one that wear green berets is the royal marines commando, hense some citizen say get the commandos) with the exception of officers, who lack head gear. They commonly wield M3 submachine guns in combat, though some carry explosive rocket launchers.
In Reprobed, the appearance of the Soldiers is changed to more accurately reflect the uniforms of the British Army during the games time period, with basic soldiers wearing green sweaters, as well as brown flak jackets, two green pouches, and dark grey Mk. IV steel helmets. In combat they use the same M-16 rifle as the US Army.
Also like the Albion Police who received new characters for the police force this was not left out for the british army here in the remake two new soldiers were added in addition to modifications of some vehicles the new soldiers are the brute who is a fat soldier who uses a minigun in which it does a lot of damage to Crypto and the strong soldier that who launches guided rockets against crypto that deal moderate damage. the military vehicles have undergone changes the armored vehicle now has a variant that has a machine gun turret on top and the tank that launches a missile attacks Crypto on foot something that in the original it didn't happen since the missile-launching tank in the original only attacked Crypto if he was on the ship.
In Reprobed, the British Army is revealed to have elite Power Suit Soldiers, much like those fielded by the US Army in the original Destroy All Humans!.
