Minder Swarm
The Minder is a tiny aerial craft, although it is still exceedingly hazardous
to approach. It is atypical of most Scourge units since it fulfils a purely
defensive role. Armed with a small version of the deadly Arc Caster, the Minder
exists solely to cover invasion armadas from air attack.
Clouds of Minders are often deployed ahead of a major landing, providing excellent
protection for dropships against roving fighters before they make planetfall.
Since the Arc Caster can only effectively target isolated units, the Minder
is almost useless for engaging ground units.
The Minder is rather slow for an aircraft, since the vast majority of its power
is required to feed the Arc Caster and to keep it aloft. Its miniature engines
are normally only used for local relocation manoeuvres. Unlike most other fliers,
it usually reaches its destination in good time via dropship insertion.
When successfully positioned early enough, a sufficiently large swarm of Minders
is able to grant the Scourge total air superiority where needed. This allows
ground units to conduct their sinister work with impunity.
