Iron Saga 11/02 Patch: Oboro & Judith Awaken!

2023-11-08

__**Patch Note **__

**New Retrofit: Deer Stalker Rosetta**

  [Intro] Deer Stalker Rosetta is recognized as a melee-enhanced version of Deer Stalker in addition to the installation of sniper weapons on the mainstay unit. The melee modules on Rosetta allow it to counterattack in close combat and ward itself off close-quarters contact.

"With that, I hope there won't be any excuses like 'it's a sniper-free mission, it's a pass for me, give it to others, commander'."
