IMO observers should get larger FOV so they can OBSERVE,I honestly think they're really useless in that role. In any role as a matter of fact. And they could be a bit more capable fighters,just a tiny bit : D

I got an idea?  Why not spam these units?  Get 2 of them and then you got an SVT guard squad (although I'm not sure if they got the same SVT as guards or navels)

I'm really curious about what will happen to the observer team, because as they stand they don't observe very well, nor is the artillery barrage very impressive. 125 muni and you barely scratch a bunker? Go compare it to a satchel charge. Cheaper, more destructive and ends up taking pretty much the same amount of time to hit the enemy.

Yeah I wish they kept the ability where they could "Observe".  I'm not sure why they got removed, it seems a bit foolish to be honest to remove the Observe ability from an Observer.
