Concerned over the lives of many robots lost, people thought of solutions. As AI became more and more developed, as different factions lacked the ability to defend civilians from attacks, something had to be made!

[b]Aspis[/b] is the core creation of the shieldbots. It absorbs attacks that come at it, serving as a bunker for other units.

[b]Conjurers[/b] are builders that are good for more than just building: In days of trouble, they can cover some of the incoming fire with their shields.

Unfortunately, this wasn't enough. To prevent from shielded robots being destroyed on the inside, new technology was made, to continue the pacifist dreams.

[b]Bandits[/b] are a modified glaive. They are not as fast, because they don't need to be. They are more made to support other shields, after all.

[b]Outlaws[/b] slow down incoming raiders, making shields difficult to overwhelm with numbers.

Seeing the promising technology of shieldbots, warlords took the technology into their own hands, now using it to create an inpenetrable, an unstoppable army that mows down everything in its path.

To further strengthen the army, [b]Rogues[/b], the missile tossers, were fielded. This made the army great at dealing with heavier armies.

Instead of using a nanolite, engineers swapped convict's builder tool with a gun, creating a [b]Thug[/b]. Its goal was the same: Take the damage for other units.

To further strengthen the army, someone invented a way to use shields to deconstruct materials instead of projectiles. Equipping this tech on a drone big enough to carry, [b]Felon[/b] was created. No longer using shields to protect, it uses shields to destroy.

Terrified by the horrific inventions, people kept on trying to make something that would lead to peace. A weapon that can mangle the equipment of key targets was fielded, known as [b]Racketeers[/b]. The shieldbot factory was equipped with the ability to field boxes with dirt, known as [b]Dirtbags[/b]. But alas, it was all too late.

The final invention is the [b]Snitch[/b]. The snitch is a walking bomb. It is as effective at destroying groups of shieldbots as it is at destroying incoming troops.

Shieldbots have fallen from protectors to bullies. Their shields encourage the army to take multiple fights, reclaim the destroyed units, and make them join the ranks of more shieldbots. To engage a fully-armed shieldball is a death sentence, and all for nothing. Shieldbots do just that: Create a massive army, and terrorize the land with it alone.
