Entity Description
Combine Soldier
Combine Elite Soldier
This entity is a Combine soldier. It comes in several variants: Regular, Nova Prospekt, and Elite.
Note:If the "Elite" model is chosen, then the NPC must be equipped with the AR2.Note:Although the Stunstick is a selectable weapon, there is a bug that renders it useless in combat.
