== Introduction==
== Introduction==
The Shadow is a dedicated troop transport vehicle, similar to an [[M12 Warthog Armored Personnel Carrier|Armored Personnel Carrier]]. As such it is not an offensive vehicle. It is slow and cumbersome. However, it possesses a powerful defensive plasma turret, which is used solely for defense, rather than offense. It is placed at it's top, the vehicle itself can be easily outmaneuvered by smaller vehicles such as the [[Warthog]] or [[Ghost (Vehicle)|Ghost]].  It's heavy armor is its best defense against attack and is the reason for its slow speed.
