Have you noticed if engineers fare better than other leg units in this kind of situation?

Should they?
Never noticed any difference myself.
However if they do fare better it makes some sense...since they work more with explosives they probably have more sense then to look up and see what happened then most folks
I guess in a RL situation engineers are trained to execute a controlled explotion/demolition but in the "heat" of the battle?
