Description

So here's an update for the crowd after a while. This is the latest of the Apocalypse mod screeny.

The Kinetic Defense Shield's are very reliable defense abilities that protects everything (makes immune) from ranged attacks. It is a shield that expands 34m from its base structure, protecting everything within it. It requires tier III at the moment but I was planning to have it available for tier IV because of its uberness.

The Kinetic Defense Shield along with protecting allies from ranged fire knocks back all infantry who dare approaches the shield. All vehicles and titan enemies are considered immune to the knockback as their mass and protective barrier allows them to pass through. Another downside to the shields to balance it all out is, the shield's drain the structure's health and drains the power resource a bit. The ability also disallows production, makes immobile and disables combat in general.

If used effectively however (which is pretty much always), this defensive weapon is a deadly force to reckon with. Lots of melee walkers and avatars are needed to deal at least a scratch to this hard defensive shell.
