Heer infantry

These chaps are the standard troops of the Wehrmacht land forces - the 'grunts', if you will. Nonetheless, they're not to be dismissed lightly. They're generally well trained, equipped and organised-and the enemy has a seemingly endless supply of them.

Types
You'll encounter three basic types: RECRUITS, REGULARS, and VETERANS.

Tactics
The biggest problem with basic grunts isn't so much their damage output, but their sheer numbers. Crowd control is imperative and can be achieved with automatic weapons, grenades, or judicious application of headshots. Grunts tend to spawn in clumps and a well-placed grenade can effectively neutralize them before they spread out, particularly in close quarters. Always keep watch on red-lit doorways you can enter, as these are the sources of the Nazi infestation.
