COMBAT INFORMATION
- Availability: Common
- Deployment: Mass
- Strengths & Weaknesses:
[+] Versatile: With their intensive training in a variety of subjects to include standard infantry training, first aid training, and law enforcement, Peacekeepers can go anywhere and do anything. Their dual role as both standard infantry and rear-line military police also affords the Dominion's territory with a great deal of safety and order. - [+] Attrition: They're quite suited to lasting long in battle. Equipped with durable armor and weapons along with survival gear, they can outlast any opponent. Their training in supply lines and combat engineering allows them to easily erect chain links to rear units or construct impromptu fortifications.
- [-] Dull Blade: They're nowhere near as precise or fast as other units in the Dominion. The Peacekeepers are meant to bludgeon the enemy with sheer numbers and firepower - catch them between a rock and a hard place.
- [-] Individual: Individual Peacekeepers are oft your standard line-grade trooper. They're nothing special. They find their true strength in squads or platoons where they can work with one another to unleash intense firepower upon their foes.
[*]Description:
The Dominion Peacekeepers are often the first and last lines of defense you'll see in Dominion territory. During peacetime or acting in peacetime duties, they are typically regarded as sector law enforcement. They've the training, jurisdiction, and many have the experience to justly and righteously enact the orders of the Archlord himself. During wartime, the Peacekeepers are your average run of the mill infantryman that can go anywhere and do anything.
Their initial training is that of an infantryman, lasting ten standard weeks. Marksmanship, drill, customs and courtesies, first aid, and squad- and platoon- grade tactics, techniques, and procedures are instilled here. Loyalty, duty, and courage are ethos valued above all else. It is here that recruits are broken down and built to be the bulwark of the Archlord and the Dominion. There is nothing greater than to serve your home, your sovereign, and your nation. The next portion of training is five standard weeks and this entails the law enforcement portion of training. Most of it typically follows that of the techniques and procedures similar to the likes of Sector Rangers - although watered down to a greater degree. After completing this second phase, the recruits have now earned the title of Peacekeeper. As for the third and last section of training, Peacekeepers displaying great aptitude in marksmanship, engineering, medicine, and other specialties will be assigned to their respective roles ranging from designated marksmen, combat engineers, medics, and logistics personnel and then trained as such.
In short, they are versatile and tough soldiers who are undeniably loyal to the Archlord and the Dominion, operate effectively in groups and organizations but lack in individual strength and precision. Their dual role as infantryman and military police makes them doubly valuable with their capacity for peacetime and peacekeeping roles. Typically, to aid in their law enforcement roles, the Peacekeeping forces are often augmented with Constable-class police droids.
