Description:
The UED's most valuable resource is undoubtedly its personnel, which was a lesson hard-learned during the first Koprulu campaign. Although the UED's Earth-born personnel were highly trained and vastly more effective than their opponents, they proved to be irreplaceable when injured or killed, forcing the expeditionary fleet to rely heavily on conscripts from the local Terran population to bolster its forces. The lax standards the Exiles were accustomed to grated with the laser-precision of the main Directorate forces, and the efficiency lost from the friction between them ultimately contributed to the fleet's downfall.
Not desiring to make the same error twice, the Directorate allocated a great deal of resources to Research and Development to adapt the UED's already-considerable AI technology to active combat duty. Some of the earliest fruits of this research were combat drones such as these, which provide disposable form of cannon fodder where human casualties would be unacceptable (thus eliminating the UED's manpower problem). This current model makes some sacrifices in regards to armor and firepower to cut down on production overhead; increasing its disposability.

Is this "AtG" unit going to be primarily a caster or a fighter?

A few possible names; Goblin, Harbinger, Sentinel, Claymore, Stiletto, Prowler.
Better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak out and remove all doubt.
