History
"Truly, the deadliest weapon of the Allies is not the rifle, but the slide rule."

-INASA Chief Administrator Thomas O. Paine

Intellectuals are a well-respected bunch within the Alliance. Spurred forth by a dream of a technological paradise that seems tantalizingly close, professors and graduates of the great universities and colleges throughout Ferelden and Eorzea are frequently given blank checks and government support in pursuit of scientific discovery.

The result is that the Alliance remain on the cutting edge of technology, forever one step ahead of (some) their rivals. Though other nations may have specific fields of study in which they excel, the Alliance's mastery of a broad range of sciences has always given them an edge economically, socially, and in warfare. However, as a result of this relentless technological advance, only the very best can be trusted to maintain the military technology of the Alliance. These individuals are known as Field Engineers, or simply Engineers. Required to possess at least one Ph.D., Field Engineers perform a wide variety of functions on the battlefield; they operate and monitor military bases, breach enemy structures in order to take them over, operate field equipment, repair damaged vehicles, operate UAVs, perform field research, act as first-response EMTs and trauma specialists, and plot artillery trajectories.

The life of a Field Engineer is hectic and varied, and they must be ready for anything. As they are unarmed noncombatants, Field Engineers must enter the field without a means of self-defense and protected only by smocks and hardhats. They know they are priority targets for snipers and enemy guard animals, and due to their lack of military training and cases of heavy, multipurpose equipment, they are easily outrun. Therefore, these personnel must rely on the protection of their comrades while they perform the vital duties that keep the Alliance war machine running in top condition.
