Sibylla's Advice

The aerial movement of Troopers with this Skill is represented using the Super-Jump and Terrain (Total) Special Skills, which are listed in their Unit Profiles. Similarly, the fact that these Troopers are harder to hit due to their higher speed and the height they can fly at is represented by Mimetism, or other Special Skills.

In addition, it is impossible to enter Silhouette contact with these Troopers unless they are in Unconscious State, so if they are not Unconscious any Wounds they have received can only be removed by using a GizmoKit.
