"The Devil Dogs are looking for work again. If you need firebats - these are the best."

The Devil Dogs are an ex-Confederate terran mercenary group, their only concern being who signs their paycheck. They have fought across dozens of worlds.[1]

Vanadium Plating

Armor upgrades increase health of affected units by 5% per level.[3]

We have created a new lightweight alloy called vanadium. Vanadium diffuses weapon impacts much more efficiently than traditional armor plating, and it better preserves the life of our units. Now each of the armor upgrades in the armory and engineering bay increases unit life by 5% in addition to increasing armor.

The firebat's attack area increases by +40%.

The upgraded gauntlet channels the flamer's fuel through multiple ports rather than the single port of the previous generation, resulting in a much wider flame without any loss of intensity, allowing your firebats to hold enemies at bay with a literal wall of fire.

Incinerator Gauntlets were previously known as Bearclaw Nozzles.

Firebats gain +2 armor.

Juggernaut Plating strengthens the firebat's natural weak spots and thickens the helmet and chest pieces. This upgrade allows firebats to shrug off the attacks of other infantry units and soak up incredible amounts of damage from small-arms fire.[4]

On Brutal difficulty, some enemy pre-placed firebats in missions are replaced with Devil Dogs.
