The Chrono Miner was the resource gatherer employed by the Allies during Great World War III. It was equipped with a miniaturised chronosphere-like device, simular to the Chrono Tanks developed in GWWII. However, for commanders to be able to manufacture them without a Battle Lab the device was simplified to the point where it could only chronoshift to a location with a special beacon on it. All allied Ore refineries had one of these beacons installed on them, so a Chrono miner could chronoshift back to it after getting a truck load of ore. A beacon may also be installed on a Soviet one if one manages to capture it, allowing the Chrono miner to Chronoshift to it as well. Also, should the Chrono miner come under attack, the Chrono miner could just chronoshift to the Ore refinery to escape. This made Chrono miners difficult to destroy while an Ore refinery was still standing.
