	~ In-game description

The Disc Shield module is a type of special cube that allows to deploy instant impenetrable cover. There is only one variant at the moment.

Should not be mistaken with Electroplates, that provide passive protection.

Overview

Shield module has a great assault potential, even a pair of coordinated shielders with balanced weapon loadout is able to push through generally overwhelming, but less coordinated force, since the only counter is to collectively flank shielders or rush into the shields.

While shield is impenetrable to any enemy weapons, bots freely move through it, so it's not advisable to use it as getaway tool in a short range skirmish.
