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 didn’t 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.
