Electrical Engineer O.C.C.

The electrical engineer is a character skilled in electronics. In the  high-tech world of ROBOTECHTM, this skill and knowledge is greatly  needed, and coveted to repair and maintain the Mecha and machinery.  So coveted by the technologically ignorant Zentraedi, that electrical  engineers are often abducted to service the alien war machine. Un- scrupulous mercenaries, skilled in electrical engineering, can make a  fortune aiding the Zentraedi and rebel governments. However, these  traitors of humanity are considered to be the foulest fugitives. Being  caught conspiring against the United Earth Forces and humanity will  lead to imprisonment or death.

The electrical engineer is not formally trained to pilot Mecha, but  can select Mecha skills among the "other" skills available.

In addition to the O.C.C. skills provided, with bonuses indicated in  parenthesis, the player can select "other" skill areas. These additional  skills are limited only as stated.
