IIGD Blitz

The Blitz is a second series hex unit made after the dasher, wrangler, and gremlin were released. Military groups liked they dasher, but they made the case for a similar, smaller unit. The company listened, and they kept most of the aspects of the dasher intact in a frame slightly smaller than 5-6 feet tall.

At this smaller scale, the effects of dasher agility manifested in a different way. While their close combat skills remained, they carried lighter arms and even found it more useful to steal enemy weapons. Blitz get their name from their habit of rushing enemy lines and then using their agility to slip past them and make attacks from behind lines. Quick hands often made off with enemy arms and turned them against them.

Blitz are the most aggressive unit, and it shows in their personality. They will always test borders to see how far they can go, they will accept commands to terminate targets more readily than even a dasher will, and handlers always have to be wary that they may try to steal code cards and weapons to the extent that most trainers go in unarmed and leave only by external command.

Blitz like to work in groups like dashers, but they like to use larger groups to use swarm tactics to confuse their enemies. They take great pride in decimating an enemy line, and their best reward is to be send out again.


Secondary roles for Blitz are almost always combat piloting, demolitions, intel, or tracking. No other unit is as devoted to combat service, and while this puts them at odds with the other hexes at times, the common hex origin still seems to cause them to be welcomed among their larger kin, and they accept the other hex as having other roles to fill. No Blitz is going to turn down medical aid from a wrangler or gremlin, and serving alongside a dasher is an honor unto itself.
