Helldivers 2 is getting a new "Chemical Agent" Stratagem next week, but you'll literally have to pay or grind for it.

Sounds to me like it will cost the same as any other warbond, 1000SC? Sooooo....it's click bait?

As someone who is really stingy on spending my SC until something interesting comes along it's fine. I saved enough do that when the last update came along I got the Fireproof Underwear because I just happen to use the flamethrower load out a lot, and I still have 1000+SC

It's fair for them to offer new stuff this way, because people will spend money or they won't, and either way it's not too daunting of a cost.

the difference is that, stratagems have been (until this point) been unlocked with requisition slips, not with the super credits. additionally, it might not be a daunting cost to you, but it might for others, always something to keep in mind!

Yeah I get that, * do understand the struggle, but is it something you can't achieve?

I mean, do you play the game to have fun or to get shiny objects?

I personally (again, my perspective and with loving thought of you in mind as well), haven't unlocked all the stagems because I enjoy the lower levels with randos and only venture upwards with a good squad that's gone through a couple missions already. There are those who take the game way to serious, and those who love to play dolly and dress up. Everyone is different and everyone enjoys the game for what it is: a broken, frustrating, amazing, repetitive, surprisingly entertaining time waster.

Keep that also in mind.
