Ion Gauntlet Shield

The Ion Gauntlet Shield is a type of Ion Shield that is used by the combat walkers of the Questor Imperialis, the Imperial Knights, and by the Renegade Knights of the Questor Traitoris. The Ion Shield Gauntlet is found only on the Cerastus Knight-Lancer. The gauntlet shield works similarly to the more common Ion Shields found on other Knights, but instead of being projected from the Knight's torso in the direction of enemy fire, the Ion Gauntlet Shield is projected inside of a massive shield-shaped projector equipped to the Lancer's gauntlet assembly. The shield is many times more concentrated than a standard Ion Shield, however it lacks their tactical flexibility. The Ion Gauntlet Shield is used in conjunction with the Lancer's Cerastus Shock Lance, and protects the Knight from attacks as it closes in with the enemy to deliver a killing blow with its lance.
