Description

The Angel ECM Suite is an experimental version of the Guardian ECM Suite operated on a broader spectrum and greatly advances ECM technology on the battlefield. Development of the Angel began shortly after the Battle of Luthien, but despite assistance from ComStar cost overruns and internal problems within ComStar and Draconis Combine has prevented its widespread deployment. Clan Goliath Scorpion has since gotten wind of the Angel's development and started copied the technology to create their own version.[1]

Rules

Game Rules

The Angel ECM Suite represents a quantum leap forward in ECM technology from the standard Guardian model. Within its 6 hex radius of effect, the Angel suite completely blocks the following systems on enemy units: Artemis IV, Artemis V, Beagle Active Probes, Bloodhound Active Probes and their Clan equivalents, C3 Master Computers and C3 Slaves, Streak Missile Launchers and Narc missile beacons. Streak missiles may be fired at units affected by the device, but they function as standard missiles.

When using ECCM rules, the Angel ECM Suite counts as two ECM/ECCM units (depending on how it is set) for the purposes of determining the ratio of ECM to ECCM in a given area.
