The Healthy Military Balance Oversight Committee is a committee staffed by LATO that oversees the Battle Standard Festival.
In-game Description
They're a so-called police force in charge of observing and intervening in disputes around the world, as well as being the de-facto LATO military. Though they acknowledge the existence of regional disputes, they set upper limits on the amount of arms that can be used and watch the situation closely. This policy is based on the idea that feuds resulting from a healthy military balance can calm the emotions of governments and people on both sides, resulting in a cooling-off period sufficiently long to allow them to talk it over rationally.
For this reason, only they are allowed to use weaponry with specs that are forbidden to all factions, for the sake of maintaining that healthy military balance. They are even allowed to use higher-level versions of Gauntlet technologies than other factions, meaning that the extreme strength of LATO Gauntlet Knights is probably an indisputable fact. LATO uses rotte (two-person squads) instead of kette (three-person squads), and Valentina and Maricarmen are war buddies in the same rotte.
