LOADOUT CATALOGUE
Weapons, equipment and unlock choices
Loadout choices, slot groupings and unlock labels are transcribed from the Dexerto role records. They describe the May 2026 build represented by that catalogue and remain version-scoped until reconfirmed in the current launch build.
Until the equipment menu is verified, the responsible description is that this role fills a specialist infantry slot rather than assigning it an invented anti-tank, supply or assault function.
Evidence scopes stay separateRole purpose comes from first-party material. The loadout table is a May 2026 catalogue snapshot; weight costs, quantities and launch-build changes still need an in-game check.
