Description

In the area of electronic espionage, few match the expertise of ComGuard. Squads of mechanized surveillance specialists, known as Battlefield Data Miners, seed the battlefield with Remote Sensors in order to track enemy movements and transmissions. Although not always capable of cracking encrypted transmissions in real-time, they can still use signal measurements to locate enemy command posts and direct friendly forces in decapitation strikes.[1]

Armament

These Sensor Engineers carry only M42B Assault Rifles in addition to their stocks of Remote Sensors. Monitoring the battlefield is their primary mission rather than straight-up slugging matches.
