The Aegis is a critical defensive structure that intercepts incoming ICBMs and nuclear artillery shells. Once stockpiled with anti-nuke missiles, it automatically protects nearby areas within its large coverage radius.
Though it does not attack conventional units, it plays a vital role in late-game base defense, especially against players investing in long-range nuclear capabilities.
Best used for: Blocking nukes, base defense
Avoid: Leaving it empty or exposed without cover
