Marauders, also known as Enforcers are massive four-legged tanks which stride across the battlefield before assuming a more stable posture in order to fire. Their main armament is an array of mortar launchers mounted atop their hulls, which can bombard enemy emplacements, swiftly reducing them to ruin. However they are also equipped with a shorter range continuous beam to deter any attackers foolish enough to get close.
