A silver broken-ring platform around a violet projector heart. It never attacks: it keeps allied fighters invulnerable and, left alone, launches a Suppression Drone.
BEHAVIOUR
- 01Projected shieldsSupport beams link the Guardian to up to two allied fighters. Each protected ship wears a white-hot Vectorium honeycomb shield. It never shields a lone final fighter: with one ally left, its beams disconnect.
- 02UnbreakablePrimary fire, missiles, VECTOR and Emergency Pulse cannot wear a projected shield down. It holds while the Guardian projects it.
- 03Collapse and retargetDestroying the Guardian collapses every shield it projects instantly. If a protected ship is lost, the beam moves to another fighter.
- 04Last ship standingLeft as the only enemy, it launches a Suppression Drone that clamps onto your ship and blocks shield regeneration.
TACTICAL
Destroy the Guardian first — it is the only way through its shields. Once a single fighter is left beside it, that fighter is exposed. Do not wait it out: a lone Guardian stops your shield from recharging.
