Human commanders are usually placed in combat vehicles called armigers, which are similar to Terra Novan gears, albeit they are generally more expensive and higher tech than the average trooper gear. Armigers are normally classified by their mission profile, and those profiles are analogous to the N-KIDUs they are nominally paired with, such as the Commando, Recce and Support Armigers.

While sharing the base chassis of all armiger units, the Support Armiger swaps the legs and hover systems for a pair of tracks. This allows the unit to mount heavier weapons. Utopian pilots who are assigned to Support Armigers generally prefer to use it in a very direct manner. Although they also have very effective indirect options as well.
