My first foray in to the civilian components of my gaming forces are these survey specialists in environmental suits. Again, these are from GZG and turned up in the post within 24 hours of ordering them - awesome!
My two survey teams each consist of four people, equipped with various environmental scanners and samplers for bio-genetic, atmospheric and geological material prior to first contact. As they are civilian and are thus vulnerable to attack, the UNSC keeps a close eye on them. Whilst baby-sitting is not the UNSCs favourite mission, the survey teams are often used to gather data, prior to a landing, which is used to plan the military intervention force's needs. Each of the specialists is equipped with a pistol for self defence. They also have sonic drills which can be misused for defence as well as a sturdy survey vehicle with terrain mapping radar and passive signal detection.
The eight specialists are ready and the survey vehicle is next on the list to be painted. More soon.
Here she is, the old faithful Tracked Survey Vehicle carrying the very best in geo-survey equipment, a full comms suite plus ground surveillance radar and radiation detection. Virtually home to a team of survey specialists, it doesn't smell great after a week in the field, but the data it brings back is often invaluable.
