Overwatch

This page contains general information for Overwatch.

Unless it is explicitly stated, everything from Civil Protection transfers over to this faction, including protocols, breaching policies, use of deadly force and so forth.

Deployment

Overwatch operates under the ratio system.

During GREEN/preserved socio-stability, for every 4 Civil Protection units, there can be only 2 Overwatch soldiers.

This number goes up by 1 whenever the socio-stability level increases. Meaning Judgment Waiver will allow the ratio to be 4:5.

General

Note: Tasks are subjected to change depending on the map rotation.

Overwatch forces patrols the perimeter leading up to the residential blocks, to ensure that no outland biotics overrun the area.

Overwatch also acts as an armed response team to backup Civil Protection units during conflicts. Note: Unless directly called upon by Civil Protection, you should never respond to code 3 waypoints or inquire about their affairs over tac comms. Mind your own business.

Remember to review Civil_Protection_Fundementals#kill_or_not_to_kill before making a harsh decision. Your AR2 pulse rifle's alternate fire option will force citizens to surrender.

Outside Judgement Waiver or Fractured (RED) socio-stability, keep out of infested zones and sewage canals.
