Bullfrogs: Difference between revisions

Revision as of 17:01, October 12, 2010

Template:Ratings Template:New Content Template:Infobox Military Unit The Bullfrogs was a nickname given to a squad of Orbital Drop Shock Troopers specializing in the use of jetpacks. During the Fall of Reach, they were stationed at New Alexandria, where they helped SPARTAN-B312 capture an executive landing pad for use in the evacuation.^[1]

The Bullfrogs could have been inspired by the Marauders of Starship Troopers, who make extensive use of jetpacks.
Despite being trained in the use of jetpacks, if a Bullfrog falls off a platform he will make no attempt to jump back up to safety, thus falling to his death. Because of this, it is not unusual for a player to have lost half of their fire team to falling by the end of the mission. Similarly, as the Bullfrogs follow a set course of jumps, they often jump into large groups of Covenant forces and are quickly killed.
