Saboteur
Introduction
The saboteur is one sneaky dude. He can disguise as enemy units, thus fooling them. By pretending to be a enemy's teammate, he can easily look around their base, their defence linout and positions. He has a silenced SMG, which cannot be heared or seen when fired.
Defence Capabilities
His primary means here is to upgrade the Sentry Guns. This upgrade is needed for Sentry Guns to be able to spot saboteurs. Before they can do that the Armourer needs to place a Motion Sensor to help the SG aim.
Offence Capabilities
He can sneak in, and look around. But he has specialized weapons and grenades to take out sentries. For example, he has a EMP rod, which he can use (you guessed it) to sabotage SG's and Dispensers. He also has EMP grenades, which he can use if the sentry is unreachable (upgraded sentries for example).
His disguise is perfect. Weapons, class size and movement are imaged. But the speed hasnt changed. So if a Heavy Gunner passes you, you know what to do >:).
Special Abilities / Tricks
Ofcourse, his ability to disguise. He looses his disguise when he fire a weapon, exept the EMP rod (aka 'magic wand'). When you are disguised, only the SMG is disguised as the classes main weapon. When you select another weapon, like the Tranquillizer, it will show that model, not the default weapon. So always keep the SMG selected when you are disguised.
He can use his Tranquillizer to make other classes walk slower then normally, like 0.5x their normal speed.
How does this class stand up to other classes?
Ranger : Almost even, tho you have frags, and he doesn't.
Marksman : He has frags too, but he has no gun to defend himself.
Commando : He will kill you very fast. Better watch out.
Demolitionist : The same story, but his grenades are quite easy to dodge.
Field Medic : Quite the same, tho he can heal. Beware.
Arsonist : You are screwed when you run into him. Better flee.
Heavy Gunner : Did I say you are screwed when you meet the Arsonist? Correct me, you are screwed when you meet this guy.
Saboteur : Be the first to hit with frags, and you will win.
Armourer : His Shotgun will make fresh meat out of you. Stay away.
