Godsfaith Protection Improvement

Godsfaith is a collection of vehicle protection and survivability projects enacted by the Order. Its name is derived from the upgrade of Dorchester armor and mine protection technology to a lightweight version that allowed the tanks to live to their name as “The Beasts of War” able to take modern and even futuristic antitank weapons head-on and suffer little to no damage at all, while sacrificing no speed (this is the reason why the religious came to think that the vehicles are blessed by the Chief Goddess herself).

Some of the fruits of the Godsfaith Protection Improvement

 1. “Zeus” Point-Defense Lasers – mainly for taking out missiles and antiaircraft artillery shells, saving a tank’s or APC a lot of trouble. However, the lasers are only able to fire two times per eight seconds. Zeus PDLs are also installed in Imperial aircraft.

(Counters: Dish out more rockets or shells than what the Zeus can handle)

 2. Nano-Shock Absorbers – In case that some missiles managed to get through the Zeus, armor protection will have nano-shock absorbers, not only vastly improving the armor protection, but also does not let the explosion shockwave affect the armor and the occupants inside. Nano-shock absorbers are also installed in treads (tanks) and tires (APCs) to reduce the impact of mines.

(Counters: None, but even nano-shock absorbers have their limits on how much hits they can take)

 3. Close Area Defense Systems – to protect against suicide bombers, vehicles will be installed with said systems that will automatically dish out a deadly hail of antipersonnel shrapnel against any possible hostile unit that gets too close.

(Counters: Never bother getting close up with those vehicles; use ranged antitank weapons instead. See Counters in #1)
