Trivia[]
- This is the only Authority Soldier with a completely unobscured faces.
- The Authority Captain has no chance of winning if it fights against the Hive Construct.
- One of the most tanky NPCs in the game, second only to their superior, the Authority Commander, so it is not advisable to fight against them being a low level since they have a decent AI to combat (not surprisingly, these guys go 1v1 against a Hive Construct...)
- Very rare but they can sometimes beat a Hive Construct.
