Today I built more IM soldiers. First I worked on the Artifact Recovery and Acquisitions (ARA) team. I built 5 more guys, two of them got the shotguns, one of them got some kind of size 2 shard gun, and then I gave two of them size-3 shard cannons. Those guys obviously are compensating, but the IM is going to need heavy weapons in this battle.

I made two more of these heavy sniper guys, and I modded their guns. These snipers are size 2. You'll notice on their backpacks each of these guys has one stick grenade. They can use those if enemy close-combat troops try to get too close.

And I built some more of the regulars. I haven't been able to source the special visors RedRover uses, so they've just got normal ones. I gave three of these guys the Zaffre-6 sniper rifles, which I think are supposed to be reserved for sniper teams, but I don't have the parts to build their regular shard rifles. 
I now have 27 IM dudes. I'll probably stop at 40 and see about using other factions as allies. I have like 100 ASE guys, who will be the primary opponent of the IM, so I've gotta bulk up the IM team with more dudes and hopefully mechs or vehicles.
