The Rampart Shield is simple in concept and design. Meant exclusively for use by the Blood Marauders, it is little more than a thick slab of reinforced durasteel used to block incoming enemy fire until the Blood Marauder can get up close and use the Marauder Scythe. In this job it excels since it is thick enough to resist all handheld weapons. Even lightsabers have trouble cutting through them because of their thickness. Only heavy weapons from war machines and artillery stand a chance of piercing through it, but at that it usually takes more than a few shots from all but the most powerful weapons.

  • The Rampart Shield is simple in concept and design. Meant exclusively for use by the Blood Marauders, it is little more than a thick slab of reinforced durasteel used to block incoming enemy fire until the Blood Marauder can get up close and use the Marauder Scythe. In this job it excels since it is thick enough to resist all handheld weapons. Even lightsabers have trouble cutting through them because of their thickness. Only heavy weapons from war machines and artillery stand a chance of piercing through it, but at that it usually takes more than a few shots from all but the most powerful weapons. Two factors contribute to make the Rampart Shield more worthy of recognition than the average hunk of metal. One is its sheer size. The shield is two meters in height and wide enough to completely protect a Blood Marauder from whatever direction it is placed. A wall of these shields from a group of charging Marauders can be an intimidating prospect. The other factor is that the shield is equipped with a repulsorlift generator to make it easier to carry in battle. The generator is fitted behind the shield to keep it protected from weapons fire, however should the generator fail, it is a standard Blood Marauder requirement to be able to lift the shield with one’s natural strength. The Rampart Shield can also be used as a weapon. A common tactic is to smash enemies between the shield and a hard place. A frequent sight on battlefields with Blood Marauders is enemy formations being destroyed by the Marauders using the Ramparts to plow through them. Many Blood Marauders will decorate the front of their shields with fierce symbols or images meant to further intimidate the enemy. This practice is officially discouraged, but not actively enforced.
