Those guys aren't armed, their purpose is, besides acting as sappers (bonus against mines and perhaps a possibility to lay reptilian version of them and maybe build bridges) is to support the vehicles. They definitely should have some mend rate, also I was thinking about a vehicle only disenchant. Perhaps some buffs too?
Also the name is up to discussion, to avoid overlapping with the human one we can rename the human technicans to simply sappers cause that's what they are basically.

I think they can be buildable with cost 3 in grey academy only.

How about some hacking abilities? Convert for vehicles

Grey mechanic

That would be quite ok with everything besides the hacking I would say.

Grey Cyberpunk?

Grey Cyber

I think that's good enough?

Maybe we should split the "technicans" and "hackers" into two different units? Vehicle convert is rather powerful.

I know this is an old one, but I totally agree here, STILL!
Hacking with 50% success should either be nerfed, or this ability soups be given to a separate new unit. Technician instead could get another, more harmless ability.

Have you ever manage to use the hacking ability? Getting in 1 range of a enemy vehicle is nearly impossible with a unit as faril as grey technicians.

@Midonik
A) it's 2 tiles range so not that unlikely
B) it has no cooldown, way too strong if the unit is used smartly
C) ergo it should be either reduced to 1 tile or the chance to 35% or give it cooldown turns, then I'm happy.

I thought it was 1 range. I'll decrease it to 2.

You mean decrease to 1 tile?

Yes that's what I meant lol. I wrote that replay in hurry.

Good idea, thank you. Will probably be sufficient a nerf for now.
