The GOC's Strike Teams exist to capture or eliminate parathreats. These units are deployed based on the intelligence gathered by Assessment Teams, passing it back to the PHYSICS Division so that an appropriate response can be coordinated. Strike Teams are typically armed with current generation weaponry, but advanced or tangential technology is used as required, and Strike Teams may also include thaumatologists, psions or other Special Assets. Given the covert nature of their operations, most Strike Teams are relatively small units. Many members of Strike Teams are recruited from the military or law enforcement, the typical cover story for a Strike Team's operations, although other recruits receive their training from one of the organizations on the Council of 108.
Strike Teams are given a four digit identifier, accompanied by unique callsign. Strike Teams with their own distinctive unit insignia typically use a shield shape, emblazoned at the top with their Team Number. Strike Teams also usually have a unit motto or slogan, which may be incorporated into their heraldry.
An incomplete list of Assessment Teams is included below.
