I'm searching for a name for it... "Aspida" means "Shield" in greek (dark eldar seem to use eastern/southern European words/names for their stuff).It also looks A LOT like "spider" so it's funny. Something like the "Araspida" could do the trick.

I kinda like the name "Ancile" OR "Dark Sanctum" but I doubt it very Dark Eldar lore like, still a nice name for a shield or defensive structure though :P

is it possible to add a 'setup' where they stop moving and increase area of effect...? Awesome work by the way!

That would give player something to do with it during combat! I think its a good idea XD.

Great idea; sadly I was planning something similar for the AdMech submod with Ordo Reductor siege vehicles. I need to hurry my butt up before the best ideas are all taken. BTW, love the model and FX. Looks great.

Nothing sad about it, we can have a face off and show the Xeno scum the power of the Machine spirit!

About a setup status, it could be done, I guess, -BUT- I don't think it would be a good idea, because it would require micromanagement for each shield. And as these units function as the walls/shield generators of the other factions, I don't think it would be fair that they would need to be managed independantly. Remember that when you're dealing with these, you wouldn't be dealing with your actual attack units.

Wait, what? I thought these were support vehicles of sorts due to all the movement animations....aren't they kind of shields that protect units(titans, vehicles, squads) within a radius?

This is a truly excellent piece of original work. In appearance and the way it moves it just *is* Dark Eldar.

Nice work.

although, isn't the shield a bit too small ?
