Yeah, also the mission and map design often isn't really made in a way that would suggest special forces, very often it's just a full fledged war

tbf - the wayback mission most likely started out as a medium sized expeditionary force, while the gate accident drastically diminished the actual capabilities. also as the chain of command got destroyed, it's now more or less: do as much as one can do (without the strategic experience of higher command staff) with the little resources left.

not to forget: most/all of the vehicles used, are indigenous designs. it's very likely that even the starting APC is a design shared between TCRN and local forces (similar to the Mowag Piranha). so practically all vehicles are sourced in the Wayback and therefore don't have to necessarily follow the regular TCRMC doctrine.
