"Raise the base shields! We're under attack!"

-Atomic Chinese commander, when his base came under bombardment from artillery

Tactical Analysis[]

  • Shields online: The Shield Tower projects a large, circular planar shield, allowing a Chinese commander to protect their base. This can prove to be a lifesaver, as the Shield Tower can be used to protect critical base structures such as power plants, buying a commander valuable time to deal with the threat.
  • Shields at 20 percent: The Shield Tower will be worn down by constant bombardment; while its shield will recharge over time, protracted bombardment will strain the shield generators to the point where they will be forced to cut out.
  • Insufficient base power: Like other Chinese base defences, the Shield Tower requires power to function, and if it doesn't receive enough power, the shield will cease to function, leaving anything under the shield wide open to attack.

Background[]

Start of video

Sounds of explosions are heard off screen

Noble Officer: "We're under attack! Raise the base shields!"

More explosions are heard. In the distance, one of the base's Fission Generators is struck by an artillery shell and explodes

Clone 1: "They took out one of the generators!"

The sky above shimmers with faint light

Clone 2: "Base shields are at full power! All Shield Towers are online!"

A shell impacts the planar shield and splashes off it harmlessly; there is a bright flash of light at the point of impact

Base Commander: "Where is that artillery fire coming from?"

Clone 1: "We're still trying to locate their position."

More flashes of light can be seen above

Clone 2: "Base shields at 90% integrity!"

Base Commander: "Get a Peng squadron up in the air, and get them to take out the source of that artillery fire."

Clone 2: "Base shields are at 80%!"

Clone 1: "Source of artillery fire located, six kilometres from our position, bearing 134 degrees! Howitzers, Blue Chinese markings!"

More flashes of light are seen

Clone 2: "Base shields at 70%!"

Base Commander: "Take out those guns now!"

Explosions can be heard in the distance, small pinpricks of light can be seen. The flashes of light overhead cease

Clone 1: "Peng squadron confirms all targets destroyed."
