HE Charge:
To plant a HE Charge, scroll through the Soldier's available weapons and select the HE Charge. Approach the desired target and press left click to place the charge.

NOTE: If doing an Objective, be sure to look for the destroy icon before placing the charge to ensure you have found the Objective.

Once the charge is attached to the target hold the Use Key ("Default F") to arm the charge. The charge will begin flashing and a timer bar will be visible bottom right of the HUD displaying how much time is remaining before detonation. Be sure to secure the location of your HE Charge once planted to ensure an enemy Constructor does not disarm your HE Charge. Once the HE Charge is about to explode clear the area to avoid being killed by its powerful blast.


Rocket Launcher:
The Rocket Launcher is the GDF’s main light anti-vehicle weapon, and is only available to the Soldier. More effective against vehicles than infantry, the Rocket Launcher has two modes, Dumb and Smart. In Dumb mode, it fires an unguided rocket, like a bazooka. There is a slight delay before firing, and the unguided rocket has an arced trajectory, requiring the player to correct their aim depending on the target’s range.

Hitting Alt-Fire (default Mouse2) enters Smart Mode, which uses the electronic sight to Lock On to enemy vehicles and deployables. Track the enemy unit until the crosshair turns from green to red and then hit fire. The rocket will then guide itself to the target, without any further need for you to track it. Hit Use to cancel Lock On
