Military Specialist O.C.C.

The military specialist is highly trained in combat and espionage.  Their specialized background may include demolitions, sniper, espion- age, weapons and piloting (such as assault helicopters, etc). They are  the brave men and women assigned to reconnaissance, intelligence  gathering, tracking fugitives, infiltrating enemy strongholds and clan- destine operations.

The military specialist's training does not include Mecha. However,  the character can learn to pilot any Destroid by selecting Mecha skills  among the other skills available. Most will avoid the larger, artillery  type Mecha, sticking with the more versatile Destroids, like the  Gladiator and Excaliber. Veritech Fighter skills are NOT available,  even to the specialist.

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