Description[]
Using Telekinetic Field will create a glowing cylindrical "wall" around the user with a radius of about 8 tiles. This has an effect equivalent to units inside the radius of a Smoke Grenade with Dense Smoke (+40 Defense). The field lasts for one turn, then dissipates.
Notes[]
- Using Telekinetic Field does not decloak a unit if they are currently ghosting, or concealed with Mimetic Skin.
- Telekinetic Field's bonuses do not apply to anyone above the field, although it will apply to units below the user if they are not outside its radius of influence. If quick Defence is needed, especially in a distant location, using a smoke grenade can be a superior tactic.
- The effect applies to airborne units on the user's level, such as users of Archangel armor, Floaters under Mind Control, or hacked Drones.
