CLASS ATTRIBUTES
* Position: Backline Defence
* Speed, health armour grens all same as spy

PRIMARY WEAPON
Sniper Rilfe or Super Railgun
like before, rifle is hitscan, railgun is fast projectile but much faster fire rate.

SECONDARY WEAPON
* Pipe Cannon
* Similar to the demoman's pipe launcher
* Fires much further so you can set a trap a long way away
* Not as powerful as the demoman's pipe trap.

CONCLUSION
This is kind of a replacement demoman for some big open flagrooms like mort, phantom, aardvark. This disadvantage over a demoman is that the pipetrap isn't as good. The advantage is that you can cover an entrance with your primary weapon at the same time, kind of doing two jobs at once.
So in say phantom you might have a sniper in the far corner, with a trap on the flag and covering the long wide entrance to the flagroom. On a map like monkey with a small flagroom a demoman would be much more useful.

I'm aware this will be very powerful in avd, might disable the pipe cannon for those maps.
