 Frame Runners are the skilled crewmen that sortie in highly mobile and extensively armed extra-orbital vehicles known as powered frames. Their role aboard a starship and general field deployment methodology are similar to those of fighter pilots, though they are generally suggested to find additional work outside of combat scenarios. Frame Runners are the skilled crewmen that sortie in highly mobile and extensively armed extra-orbital vehicles known as powered frames.

 General infantry are the backbone of the [[Astral Vanguard]]'s armed forces, and the last line of defense on a starship when Frame Runners and point defense weapons are unable to keep the enemy at bay. They have harder physical training regiments than Runners, but tend to see less action. Outside of the front lines, or on starships, general infantry serve as security on all Vanguard installations. General infantry are the backbone of the [[Astral Vanguard]]'s armed forces, and the last line of defense on a starship when Frame Runners and point defense weapons are unable to keep the enemy at bay.

 Mechanists are the dedicated maintenance crew aboard all [[Astral Vanguard]] starships, responsible for keeping all essential hardware aboard the ship at peak performance. Due to the unique circumstances with Iromakuanhe technology, they are required to understand both conventional and organic systems design, and the philosophy behind the maintenance of both. Is is not unusual for Frame Runners and General Infantry to double up Mechanists, and vice-versa, to have further use in the field. These crewmen are known as Field Mechanists. Mechanists are the dedicated maintenance crew aboard all [[Astral Vanguard]] starships, responsible for keeping all essential hardware aboard the ship at peak performance.

 Missions Operators are enlisted and warrant officer-level CiC specialists who are stationed aboard the various vessels, bases and orbital facilities of the Vanguard, compiling data being sent to them by their fellow Adjutants Operators and sending it to their Intelligence Officers for interpretation. In the battlefield, they are generally delegated a single platoon or wing from their superiors and charged with keeping them informed of mission objectives and the changing conditions of their operational zone. In short, a Missions Operator is the direct line of communications between a combat division and their staging area during sorties. Missions Operators are enlisted and warrant officer-level CiC specialists who are stationed aboard the various vessels, bases and orbital facilities of the Vanguard, compiling data being sent to them by their fellow Adjutants Operators and sending it to their Intelligence Officers for interpretation.
