The Nereus is Legion’s standard hover tank, delivering balanced offensive and defensive capabilities for controlling amphibious terrain. Armed with a medium plasma cannon and moderate armor, it forms the backbone of hover-based assaults and defenses.
While not as fast as lighter skirmishers, the Nereus trades speed for staying power, able to absorb hits and return fire effectively in small-scale engagements. Its hover chassis allows it to support naval raids, pressure coastal bases, and reinforce across shallow water where land units can’t follow.
Best used for: Mainline hover assaults, amphibious zone control, durable frontline anchor
Avoid: Charging heavy turrets or massed artillery without support
