An enemy faction in Metal Slug 5. Their motives are somewhat unclear, probably their goal is world domination through dark occult terror. Unlike the typical Green Army
Men aka Rebels you encounter in almost Metal Slug series, the Ptolemaic
Army has more distinctive ranking
system, deadlier tactics, and improved military equipment.
Types of Ptolemaic
Army infantry:
- Guerrilla, wearing
olive-brownbattledress and red bandana scarves. Specialized on outdoor combats.
- Special forces. Expert on room clearings, and sneak attacks. Seen wearing black gears and gas masks.
- Special forces diver. Marine units armed with spear guns.
- Officer. Men dressesd in
blue-
gray uniforms. They rarely engage combats. Officers often summon and command
mechanized infantry units. After that officers will flee away. Somewhat they take more shots to
kill than others.
- Cultists. Masked guys in various hoods who practice the Ptolemaic cult and commanding battles. Only armed with low-velocity spore pistols.
Have you noticed why Metal
Slug 5 game over screen lacks of helmet on it? Perhaps the
character and Ptolemaic
Army soldiers alike do not wear such helmet?
