[DATA ACQUIRED BY HVY CPT ARTI]
[ACQUIRED ON MAY 27TH, 2022]
Division: Overwatch Transhuman Arm
Leader: CmD Scottish
Description: Unlike the 2 other groups of the OTA Division who had more of an affinity for close combat roles, RANGER units rely on using their sniper for eliminating high-priority targets on the field at range; while lacking the maneuverability of CROSS, they instead possess more health and a higher damage weapon.
While they are considered transhumans, these units can be enslaved by the Military Police.
"RANGER is yet another adaptation upon a previously prevalent strain of OTA. Being an adaptation of the Overwatch Sniper, they traded their pulse-sniper for a more conventional and far less heavy bolt-action anti-material-based rifle, which, while not possessing the same sheer stopping power as the pulse counterpart, has proven to be just as capable at neutralising soft targets. Additionally, the RANGERs were provided a newly designed -although simple- armor which was outfitted with a form of bio-adaptive vegetative camouflage, as the Overwatch required long-range fire support in the outlands surrounding Sector 61, necessitating such a feature."
Be on the lookout for scope glints, they may give out the position of CROSS units.
Stay indoors and avoid open areas if you don't have a long-range rifle.
