OUT OF CHARACTER INFORMATION
When it comes to the topic of large scale warfare no one can deny the usefulness of preserving he lives of your own soldiers. The Dynetech Powershield was crafted to preserve the life of Illyrian soldiers at every turn. Made of a very powerful metal known as Impervium, the metallic surface is able to resist multiple forms of attack, most notably it is designed to protect the user from energy based weapons. Aside from it's usefulness as a defensive shield, the large device also has a personal energy shield embedded into it, offering the defender 360 degrees of protection from energy based weapons. The downfall to such a large, sturdy shield is the massive weight that comes with denser metals. The shield is designed to be used by footsoldiers who are advancing in steady waves, instead of rapid, fast moving assaults.
- Intent: The Dynetech Mark I Powershield was designed to be the leading defense for Illyrian military & policing forces.

- Barricade Spike: The bottom portion of the shield can release three, four ft spikes that can penetrate into the ground below the shield, effectively locking it in place to provide the user with a static form of cover.
- Energy Shield: Not only does the shield itself have a powerful defense against a frontal assault, however the shield can produce a personal energy shield to provide 360 degrees of coverage until the energy shield's power banks have been drained or overcharged. The shields will allow a defender to fire out of the energy field, however it will withstand energy-based attacks directed towards the shield.
- Comm HUB: The inside of this shield has a port which allows it to serve as a mobile comm device with a tracking unit embedded into it. The comm hub is capable of planetary-wide communication, but will go no further than the planet's lower atmosphere.
- Resistance: The Powershield has a very durable face of Impervium which stands up well to energy, kenetic, & even ION based attacks. While the energy shield is only capable of proficiently deflecting energy based assaults, it has an ability to remain active for up to thirty minutes without draining the primary power core, however under moderate assault it would only last for a third of that time.
- Mobile Cover: With the ability to plant the powershield as mobile cover, it gives the soldier the ability to take cover from enemy fire and artillery when the terrain offers none.
- Heavy: Made from an incredibly dense material, as well as filled with a number of weight-inducing electronic systems, the Powershield is considerably heavy, making an impact on the stamina of the soldier who carries it. It is best used in small burst rushes or slow sustained advances.
