The first unit in the Berga series developed by the Crossbone Vanguard, the XM-04 Berga-Dalas was designed as a high performance unit for use by officers. Like the XM-01 Den’an Zon, the Berga-Dalas was built for close combat, its primary armament being a shot lancer with an attached pair of machine guns. The Berga-Dalas was also highly maneuverable, as some of its thrusters were located in the flexible shelf nozzles on its backpack. One Berga-Dalas unit was piloted by Dorel Ronah, the youngest member of the powerful Ronah family which organized and led the Crossbone Vanguard.
