As \u003c\/em\u003e\u003cem\u003esuch, they have surprisingly few of them, leading some analysts to suggest that the Scourge were never \u003c\/em\u003e\u003cem\u003eexpecting mankind to rally and strike back so spectacularly.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eThe Shedu class is actually a fairly typical monitor, offering the usual characteristics: low speed, high \u003c\/em\u003e\u003cem\u003earmour, high firepower. It lacks the ability to engage surface targets though, armed with a rare variant of\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003eOculus weapon technology, designed for engaging targets in higher orbital layers.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eThe Lamassu is little threat to attackers from without, but rather to invaders below. They are the smallest \u003c\/em\u003e\u003cem\u003eScourge ships to carry bulk landers and are thought of as mobile, orbital barracks. During an invasion a \u003c\/em\u003e\u003cem\u003eLamassu can drop thousands of troops whenever called upon. \u003c\/em\u003e\u003cem\u003eIn order to support its charges, the Lamassu also features limited orbital bombardment capability, \u003c\/em\u003e\u003cem\u003eallowing it to soften up any landing zone that does have defences in place. During the Battle for Earth, \u003c\/em\u003e\u003cem\u003eorbital fire and incoming reinforcements from these otherwise innocuous small ships caught some UCM \u003c\/em\u003e\u003cem\u003egenerals fatally unprepared.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/blockquote\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eDIRECT ONLY: THIS ITEM IS AVAILABLE ONLY ON THE TTCOMBAT WEBSTORE\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis set contains 3 Scourge Monitors. These small ships are slow moving, and struggle to manoeuvre, but make up for that by targeting between Low and High Orbit without penalty, and having unparalleled armour for that size of ship.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis pack makes three ships, buildable as either Shedu class Monitors or Lamassu class Barges. The Shedu is a typical Monitor, with a slow Thrust and high armour (at least by Scourge standards), it has two uses, both as an offensive craft using its Occulus Beam Crest (2 Attack, 2 Damage and Scald), and as a support ship using its Detector special rule. The Lamassu fills a very unique role, as a slow moving lander. A tiny ship equipped with Bulk Landers, it makes a great surprise for your opponents in the mid-game, as the seemingly innocuous chassis gives way to heavy landing capability.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"content\"\u003eThis set includes:\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"content\"\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3 Resin Miniatures\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3 Dropfleet Bases\u003cspan\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/ttcombat.com\/pages\/dropfleet-commander-downloads\"\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eResin miniatures supplied unpainted and unassembled.
