The fluff blurb actually sums this model up very well: ''The primary purpose of a steelsoul protector is to serve as a shield against any harm intended for the priests of Cyriss.''


She's ablative armour, plain and simple.
==Release Trivia==

* The Steelsoul Keg Protector exclusive model can be used instead of the stock model. [[Category: Limited Edition Sculpt]]


===Combos & Synergies===
* [[Aurora1]] can allow this model to boost damage for a total of 4 dice of damage on an attack.
* [[Strange Bedfellows]] is really useful for a solo with shield guard - they either die and give [[Swift Vengeance]] to allies or they survive and protect someone really important.


===Drawbacks & Downsides===
==Battle Reports==
* If you're thinking about protecting your caster or vectors, you're better off using the [[Destruction Initiative]] theme force instead. It has lots more Shield Guards.


===Tricks & Tips===
==Videos==
* Keep one (or more) around to shield guard your caster. Her long melee range and Defensive Strike means she can also stand next to a model with counter charge and free it up should they enemy try to jam them, but don't rely on it too much.
* Grievous Wounds at range from Alten Ashley is crushing to some of our vectors. A Steelsoul protector can prevent Alten Ashley from applying it to his intended target.

The primary purpose of a steelsoul protector is to serve as a shield against any harm intended for the priests of Cyriss. The shell of the vessel is engineered to be light enough to allow its bearer to move with startling speed while also being tremendously durable. The vessel’s frame possesses the strength necessary to employ the protector’s massive iron glaive to deflect incoming blows and deliver surprisingly swift counterstrikes. Only the most worthy members of the Convergence are afforded the tremendous honor of being chosen for soul transfer into one of these revered vessels.
