| - The urban enforcers of Krone's totalitarian regime, the Krone Policewill be the standard enemy soldiers you'll be fighting in the game'sfirst 6 levels. They have decent durability and good combat tactics,and pose a credible threat, but your Timeshifting abilities give you asignificant advantage over them. They are notably tougher than theaverage FPS soldier, often requiring almost 1/2 a clip of assault riflefire to kill. Appearance: Soldier wearing square metal armor vest over blue uniform. Health: 100 Primary Weapon: KM 2103 Karbine (Karbine Bullets: 4.5% damage)(Grenade Launcher: 51% damage) All Weapons Used: KM 2103 Karbine (Karbine Bullets: 4.5% damage)(Grenade Launcher: 51% damage)ShatterGun (30% damage)KM-33 Pistol (6.25% damage) (rare)Echo Rifle (50% damage) (rare) ThunderBolt Crossbow (16.67% damage) (rare) Other Attacks: Melee Strike (65% damage)Clutch Grenade (75% damage) Most Krone Police are equipped with KM 2103 Karbines, although somecarry ShatterGuns instead. You'll also find a few K.P. Corporals armedwith ThunderBolt crossbows in a large firefight at the end of thesecond level (unfortunately, you can't take the crossbows from themsince they're firing at you from across the street), and one K.P.Corporal is equipped with an Echo Rifle and acts as a sniper in thegame's fourth level. A couple K.P. Corporals also use KM-33 pistolsinstead of Karbines, but they're really rare. Krone Police soldiers take cover, fire from cover, move from cover tocover, flank your position, and toss clutch grenades at you. You'll oftenfight squads of several of them at once. Although Krone Police willoccasionally use their Karbines' undermounted grenade launcher, theygenerally only do so if you stand in their line of sight for more thana few seconds. KILL STRATEGY: In the levels you fight the Krone Police, you'll only have access to 3weapons; the KM-33 pistol, the KM 2103 Karbine, and the ShatterGun. TheShatterGun works great indoors at close-quarters, but doesn't work welloutdoors at long range. The KM 2103 Karbine is a decent weapon, but itcan take half a clip of fire to take down a single Krone Police soldier(it only takes 7 direct hits to the chest to kill a Krone Policesoldier, but shots to the arms do reduced damage, and not all bulletshit at all at long range). Probably the best way to kill Krone Police is to use the Karbine'sgrenade launcher; a single grenade blast will kill a Krone Policesoldier, and practically every Krone Police soldier drops a KM 2103Karbine with grenade launcher ammo. For fighting large groups, use thegrenade launcher to soften them up, then mop up the survivors with theKarbine's primary fire combined with Timeslow.
