Support Platform

A static version of the grav platforms, the support platforms are a sturdy base defense option deployed when the Craftworlds need to remain on the planet's surface for extended periods of time.

Tactics

Aside from their usual use as detectors and defense at important locations, Eldar Support Platforms can be combined with Webway Gates for especially sneaky tactics. An Eldar player can build a set of D-Cannon armed Support Platforms around a Webway Gate and research Relocation Matrix to prepare a mobile pack of turrets. Bonesingers then teleport behind the enemy base, construct a second Webway Gate, and relocate the turrets around the new Webway Gate. 30 seconds later the Support Platforms complete their relocation and begin raining destruction down upon the enemy base. Combined with the Shroud ability of the Webway Gates, the victim will be unable to respond until he can also bring a detector into the area.

Most turret upgrades (except the Gauss Turret) lose their normal anti-infantry power, but also gain knockback which is useful against lone infantry like commanders. The Support Platform D-Cannon upgrade doesn't get any knockback, but instead gets a large area of effect, allowing it to catch multiple vehicles in each shot.
