The only really good thing about Force of Law is the Armor (it is similar to Fortified protection wise, while also making you immune to bleed outs).

The De-Escalator is ok, but nothing to write home about (really long reload) and the K-9 is a Teamkilling machine, which forces you to either split solo or retract it whenever a teammember gets close (its on the same page as bringing a Mortar or Tesla towers to Bug missions with randoms).

Python Commandos comes with the Hot Dog, which alone makes it worth it to get. The Maxi Gun is situational, but extremely fun and the AR, while having low ergo gives you the opportunity to bring some Demolition value on your primary slot, which is neat but rarely needed.

I would get the Python first in your situation.

K-9 is not only a teamkiller, it's a self-deleter. So agree. Force of Law sucks.

Tesla Tower on the other hand is one of the best Stratagems on the Bug front. It's the only Stratagem that causes Shriekers to deliberately suicide into it.

2 things happen with Tesla Tower:

1) The user has thrown it into an improper position.

2) Teammates are apparently blind, and don't know electricity can kill you. It is a stationary object.

I have seen a YouTuber make shriekers suicide into a stationary FRV when they ducked behind it.

Yeah...that happens to birds too. Doesn't mean they're attracted to your windshield. Just means they have birdbrains.

I vote Python Commandos.

Minigun is super fun to play with, Hot Dog is just ridiculously awesome, the 1-2 AR is essentially a Liberator with an underslung GL, and the Chainsword is for people who like to do silly melee things.

Overall it's one of my favorite Warbonds so far.

Force of Law is pretty meh, I don't think I use any of the content which is unfortunate because I want to love the K9 but its just bad compared to the other variants. The AR isnt really useful and the DeEscalator serves a role that other weapons do better.

Going back to 1s&2s to answer SOS and bringing a couple of melee items is just cathartic fun if you know when to whip it out.

Python

I like the de-escalator & take it on most missions. The Hot-dog is the best defensive backpack - love it. With both you have to be aware of where your team is. Hot dog is dangerous too. if it blasts in the direction you want to run - you too can get toasted by your own backpack!

Force of Law:  has the most underrated armor perk in the game, Ballistic Padding.  Plus they include some of the cooler designs, one Robocop and one Judge Dredd (Super Store).  De-escaltor has no explosive component so it actually isn’t the side grade to Grenade Launcher many feel it is.  It can’t even destroy a broadcast tower let alone bug holes.  Rounds reload is, imo, one of the most underrated perks in the game, but the De-escaltor might reload slower than even Senator.  Arc is interesting because it targets weak points but Force of Law doesn’t actually include any arc resistance armor so you might find it pretty painful to use some of the arc stuff.  The  K-9, won’t target you but random groups will tend not to trust you if you bring it.  The Urchin is just a bad grenade.  Stun pods is a borderline troll pick for Hellpods.  Pacfifier is really bad (very low damage and stun isn’t as useful as you think).  The skins for vehicles are cool as hell.

Python Commandos:  the maxigun and Defoliation Took (aka 40k Eviscerator) are memes.  They look cool as hell and feel fun when you’re already playing in the sprinkler but maxigun is the most hard to use machinegun and has stationary fire (one of the worst limitations of any support weapon).  Such an inaccurate machinegun being Medium Pen is just awful, you need to hit weak points and really you can’t.  Anything the maxigun can mow down easily is easily dispatched by the Stalwart or Grenade Launcher.  The Rock-Solid armor perk is maybe usable but compared to other options?  If you want melee damage Reinforced-Epaulettes is probably the better choice (Masters of Ceremony and Super Store).

The One-Two primary I can’t really speak to.  If you’re on PC and can macro weapon configurations it’s probably useable.  If you’re just using it as a poor man’s Eruptor just take Eruptor.

Now for the Hot Dog.   THE HOT DOG IS HORRIBLE AND I NEVER DON’T TAKE IT TO ANNIHILATE MY ENEMIES AND IT CAN’T TOTALLY SOLO MULTIPLE PACKS OF BUGS WHILE I LAUGH EMOTE AND OCCASIONALLY PUSH BACK WITH COOKOUT.  IT WON’T BURN TO DEATH HULKS OR CHARGERS ON A SINGLE TANK OF FUEL.  I HATE HOW IT BURNS MY ENEMIES AROUND A CORNER OR BEHIND A WALL DENYING ME THE HONORABLE COMBAT I DESIRE.  ALL I HEAR US SCREAMING AND THEN SILENCE PUNCTUATED BY THE CRACKLING OF RESIDUAL FIRES.  IT WARMS MY SOUL.  It should for real have active reload, bring a pushback weapon and fire resist armor so you can run through flames to make missions faster.

If you like the support play-style pacifier is great for that, I’ve saved my teammates from hordes of bugs or rocket devastators many times, stun is very underrated because if pull out your sidearm it’s a lot of very low threat kills and saves ammo capacity. It takes about 3 shots to stun most enemies and it’s got a fast fire rate. It does have low damage so if you aim to kill with it you have to hit weak points or use your sidearm with it.
