The Soldier-bot

Soldier Robots appear in Mann vs. Machine as enemies.

Normal variants

Soldier bots behave like human Soldiers, rushing into battle using with their Rocket Launchers as a primary means of attack. By itself the Soldier bot isn't a terrible threat, but nothing in this game mode comes "alone". A squad of Soldier bots becomes a quick problem as you may be faced with a barrage of rockets coming your way. Soldier Robots reload when they have time, and fire when they see an enemy.

Soldier (Type 2)

This rare variant of the Soldier-bot carries the Cow Mangler 5000, their 80% damage reduction to buildings means they pose less of a threat to an Engineer's buildings, they are otherwise identical to a normal Soldier-bot. They do not fire charged shots.

The third variant of the Soldier robot carries the Direct Hit, but other than that, they are identical to the normal variant.

With extended buffs that last up to 90 seconds long, these Soldiers can keep their allies beefed up for most of their journey across the map. They come in Buff Banner, Battalion's Backup and Concheror variants.

Another variant of the Extended Buff Soldier, exclusive to Caliginous Caper, uses the Direct Hit in combination with the Buff Banner. Unlike the other variants, these Soldiers do not have "Extended Buff" in their names, and use the regular Soldier bot icon.

This Soldier heals itself upon hitting an enemy. To ensure a full recovery of the damage taken, it fires 3 rockets at once.

Blast Soldiers can send players flying across the room, making it very difficult to hit the robot horde.

Pictogram plus.png 3800 HP
Pictogram plus.png +60% knockback resistance

A giant version of the regular Soldier robots, with greatly increased health, slower movement speed, but wielding the same Rocket Launcher as his smaller counterpart.

Giant Rapid Fire Soldier

Giant Rapid Fire Soldiers fire rockets continuously, at a faster rate than regular Giant Soldiers.

Giant Burst Fire Soldier (Type 1)

Pictogram minus.png -50% movement speed
Pictogram minus.png -35% slower projectile speed
Pictogram minus.png Does not fire until fully reloaded


This is a variant of the Giant Rapid Fire Soldier, and has similar stats. However, it will shoot a flurry of rockets that are shot out in a very rapid succession. Players should be aware of when it's firing and when it's reloading; an unaware and unattentive player will likely result in a quick death.

Giant Charged Soldier

Pictogram plus.png 3800 HP

Pictogram minus.png -50% movement speed
Pictogram minus.png -50% projectile speed
Pictogram minus.png 2.0x slower fire rate


Equipped with the Original, Giant Charged Soldiers always fire critical hit rockets. The rockets move more slowly, though, at half the speed of regular rockets, and can be easily dodged by wary players.

Giant Burst Fire Soldier (Type 2)

Icon Name Primary Attributes

Giant Burst Fire Soldier Rocket Launcher

Pictogram plus.png 4200 HP
Pictogram plus.png +60% knockback resistance

Pictogram plus.png +60% faster reload rate
Pictogram plus.png +80% faster firing speed
Pictogram minus.png -50% movement speed
Pictogram minus.png -10% slower projectile speed
Pictogram minus.png Does not fire until fully reloaded


This robot is similar to the first type of Giant Burst Fire Soldier, but it deals double damage and has 100% critical hits. Although it does fire slightly slower than the original, this robot's attack can be deadly as the rockets move faster and deals more damage.

Pictogram plus.png +80% faster firing speed
Pictogram minus.png -50% movement speed
Pictogram minus.png Does not fire until fully reloaded


This is the juggernaut of all the Soldier robots. Similar to the Giant Soldier, Giant Charged Soldier and the Giant Burst Fire Soldier, it will not fire until it has a full clip reloaded. When it does, it will shoot all of its crit rockets in rapid succession, killing anyone who is unaware or even too close to the attack. All players must take extreme caution to eliminate this robotic threat, as its extremely high health, health regeneration and crit-boosted rockets can be a major problem.

Similar to its smaller counterpart, it has the ability to heal itself entirely upon hitting an enemy, and fires 3 rockets in a single blast. A Medic's Projectile Shield upgrade, a Heavy's Minigun ability to deflect projectiles, and a Pyro's Compression blast can help destroy or reflect the projectiles. This can make it much easier to destroy these giants. It can easily carry the bomb all the way to the hatch or capture a gate if it keeps dealing out damage to heal itself. Otherwise, it has the same attributes as the Giant Soldier.

With a huge health pool equal to that of Sergeant Crits' this Soldier will also throw players around the room to make it harder to target him.

This rare variant of Major Crits has less health. You can always find him in a pair with a Giant Medic. This robot is essentially a crit-boosted version of the aformentioned Colonel Barrage.

Unused content

  • There is an unused version of Major Crits that uses the Black Box, wears the Team Captain and Fancy Dress Uniform, and has only 40000 HP. It is referred to as T_TFBot_Chief_Soldier_Atomic just like Sir Nukesalot is referred to as T_TFBot_Chief_Demo_Atomic, suggesting it was at one point intended to be used instead of Sir Nukesalot.
    • There is also an unused icon for Major Crits in the game files, suggesting that he was wearing a Sergeant's Drill Hat, but it was replaced with Gatebot Helmet.
