New Units
Paratroopers: Based on US Airborne paratroopers during WW2; They carry M1 Carbines, have more health, accuracy, and do more damage than the normal soldier. They have rings on their heads similar to paratrooper toys!
Individual paratroopers can be found in the Units menu, or dropped from a C47 plane if spawned from Paradrop in Support menu or Target Marker.
Bomber Zombies: Has a firecracker on their back, will run at enemies and explode when in proximity. Has Orange and normal zombie variants.
(Has been in tester builds since end of last week but hadn't announced it until now.)
Service Uniform Soldier: Soldier wearing ceremonial uniform. Carries default m16 for now. Will later have an M1 Garand Service Uniform Soldiers.
Will salute if AI is turned off.
