Legion Monolith

A Legion Monolith is an immense dimensional vessel used by the Burning Legion as one of their primary planetary assault craft. An invasion force as massive as the Burning Legion has the need for assault craft to support their land operations to dominate a world on the land, sea and air. A Legion Monolith combines the properties of a transport craft, an armored destroyer and a symbol of Demonic might on the battlefield.

A Legion Monolith can float over a field of battle and defy the pull of gravity. When its silhouette appears over the battlefield, it is capable of laying waste to entire armies at once with an immense array of destructive capabilities, strafing them with torrents of Fel fire and the deafening crack of its cannons. The assault vector is only half of the Monolith's power, however. A Monolith is capable of descending and landing upon the field of battle and providing the Burning Legion with an instantly defensible position and stronghold. At the heart of every Monolith lies a sacrificial soul portal to the Twisting Nether through which it may disgorge the infinite armies of the Burning Legion from its bowels. his portal links the Monolith directly to the Burning Legion's realm, allowing a constant stream of reinforcements to supplement the early forces of the first wave of Legion assault, providing legion after legion of Demonic warriors to drown a world in an endless army of Demons.

Legion Monoliths are the staple of the mechanized side of the Burning Legion, and are usually only deployed when a world is well under invasion. A Monolith contains a crew in addition to its destructive capabilities, which can range from an entire assortment of Demons of all kinds, to a single, powerful Demon directing the vessel's immense might.
