Name: Mandalorian Saboteurs
Rank: Mandalorian
Tier: Middle 3
Background: Mandalorian Saboteurs, otherwise known as Mandalorian Disruptors, were a unique kind of Mandalorian borne of the massive technological advancements seen in the Great Galactic and Cold Wars.
With the advancements in technology came a secondary issue: Many other support units of the time were beginning to reach their limits trying to get behind enemy lines, disrupt them with traps, explosives or other nuisances useful for the main forces- Scouts lacked the capability to set more complicated traps, whilst Metalsmiths had issues with getting behind enemy lines to gather intel.
Thus, the Saboteur was born. Trained less in combat and more in other fields, Saboteurs were often dispatched with other units as jack of all trades which could aid in stealth, traps, and the like, whilst still leaving space for dedicated units to perform more advanced duties without having to send in larger teams of multiple specialists for more mundane tasks.
Even now, the Saboteur sees use, though less so, with major clans now opting to instead send in special forces- Be they hired Bounty Hunters, or trained elites, especially with more analog tech being made mainstream for ease of use and difficulties in disrupting them.

Weaknesses: Cocky and arrogant fighters. Easily led into a trap where they believe they can succeed in a fight. Always try to best the strongest opponent around.
Mandalorian Saboteurs, first and foremost, are utility units, lacking in combat skill. They will be defeated with ease by an equally-skilled opponent in an even combat scenario, lacking the proper mindset and skills to fight opponents in single combat. Though useful as a jack of all trades who is able to conduct multiple forms of sabotage, the Saboteurs lack the expertise of proper specialists, who will be able to counteract their efforts with relative ease.
