'''Rebel Snipers''' are counter-infantry units in [[Halo Wars]].

== Background==
Rebel Snipers are normally seen protecting Neutral [[Rebel]] bases. They are in teams of two and often have one star veteran levels. The Snipers can take out any infantry unit very quickly, even [[Spartans]]. However, they are not so effective against large groups of infantry or anything more powerful, like a warthog or tank.

They are also seen protecting garrisoned bonuses, sniper towers, etc. They give cover fire for standard [[Rebel Infantry]].

They appear to be the rough equivalent of [[Kig-yar|Jackal]] units.

== Strategies ==
Early in the game, it is beneficial to take out groups of Rebels for the supply crates that appear when they are neutralised. If you are using infantry yourself to fight them, then upgrade some of their features, or bring some vehicle and/or air units along with them.

Also, in addition to upgrading [[marine]] features, using large groups of Marines could help take out these infantry killing threats. Take into consideration that the snipers pause to acquire new targets, and use this opportunity to use your main infantry's special ability to take out the snipers for good. Make sure all your units are not focusing on just the snipers, have some units attacking the snipers while others attack Rebel squads, capture structures, or destroy Rebel base turrets.

Air units are also effective at taking out these Rebel snipers. Take a group of Hornets to along to assist your ground forces with the Rebel threats. [[Scorpions]] with the Canister Shell upgrade are very effective to take out these snipers usually one shot from the canister from just one should take out both snipers.

 == Background==
-Rebel snipers are a type of insurrectionist infantry seen defending rebel-held sites on Harvest and Arcadia. Like regular [[Rebel Infantry]], they wear hoods and a mix of equipment including armour pieces scavenged from [[UNSC Marine Corps Battle Dress Uniform|UNSC BDUs]]. They are typically seen in pairs, supporting regular infantry and defending rebel-held sites. They wield an [[unidentified sniper rifle|unidentified type of sniper rifle]].{{Ref/Reuse|HW}}

-==Gameplay==
-In ''[[Halo Wars]]'' Rebel Snipers can be found in the multiplayer mode, as part of the Insurrectionist faction. Like the insurrectionists, [[Flood]] and [[Sentinel]]s, they are hostile to all players of either team, regardless of [[UNSC]] or [[Covenant]] affiliation. They serve the rebels as anti-infantry infantry, taking a role akin to the [[Kig-Yar Sniper]]s available to Covenant players.
-Rebel snipers can usually be found alongside a squad of infantry protecting [[rebel base]]s, often with one star veterancy. They typically provide support fire for the regular infantry and [[Base turret#Variants|turrets]], and are able to quickly eliminate most infantry, even [[SPARTAN-II program|Spartans]]. Larger groups of infantry and/ or vehicles, however, are easily capable of overpowering the snipers.
+They are also seen protecting garrisoned bonuses, sniper towers, etc. They give cover fire for standard [[Rebel Infantry]].
-Some maps, such as [[Blood Gulch (Halo Wars level)|Blood Gulch]], have Rebel Snipers spawn to protect [[Forerunner]] structures such as [[Forerunner supply elevator|supply elevators]] and [[Forerunner secondary reactor|secondary reactors]].
+They appear to be the rough equivalent of [[Kig-yar|Jackal]] units.
