Technical and Historical Notes: Based on their standard XM-01 Den'an Zon model, the Crossbone Vanguard's XM-02 Den'an Gei was designed primarily to be used for guerilla warfare. The Den'an Gei did not carry the Vanguard's trademark shot lancer weapon, instead being armed with vulcan guns, an arm beam gun, a grenade rack, a beam saber, and a beam rifle for more well-rounded firepower. This array of heavier firepower made the Den'an Gei more well-suited to hit-and-run strikes used in guerilla-type missions.
