A big, low command vehicle on two long tracks, with a radar mast over a field-generator dome and missile cells in its rear deck. Its field shields nearby allies.
On the battlefield
The Aegis is support: paired missiles every 2 s at ground and air out to 125 m, on a fast tracked hull that hangs back behind the line. On its own it is a light gun, and the launch tests show it: it wins its fights against fliers like the Seraph and little else. Its worth is in its techs, which turn it into the line's shield (Hardlight Field) and its air cover (Point Defense, AA Targeting).
From equal-supply battles of each pair at 400, 800 and 1,600 supply (no techs, 20 seeds each). Real armies mix units, so read these as tendencies.
Where to deploy
Behind the front line, near the squads it protects: its field and point defense cover what is around it, and its range lets it fire over the line. It is fast (16 m/s) for its size, so it keeps up with a moving army.
Early and late rounds
Cheap to unlock (50) at 250 supply, so it comes in once the army is big enough for its field to cover a lot, or when the enemy brings fliers or a missile army.
Techs that change its job
Hardlight Field shields every ally within 72 m. Point Defense shoots down incoming projectiles within 48 m. AA Targeting doubles its missile damage against air, and Swarm Rack turns each salvo into twelve smaller missiles. Radar Mast links allies within 100 m, Long Barrels adds 40 m, and Heavy Plating adds 40% HP and blocks 60 from every hit.
