The '''Eklon'Dal Workshop War-Sled''', colloquially known as the '''Marauder''',{{Ref/Reuse|Enc22}} is a fast, medium-size infantry-fighting vehicle used by the [[Banished]].{{Ref/Game|Id=PL|HW2|Phoenix Logs|Detail=Marauder}}
The '''Marauder''' is a fast, medium-size infantry-fighting vehicle used by the [[Banished]]. It is armed with a heavy plasma turret and a complement of missiles. Marauders can be upgraded with modular plates of thick hide to increase their staying power in escalating battles and can also be fitted with [[active camouflage|cloaking]] systems. Marauders usually operate in close support of Banished infantry.<ref name="PL">'''Halo Wars 2''', ''[[Phoenix Logs#Banished Units|Phoenix Logs - Marauder]]''</ref>
 
==Overview==
===Design details===
The Marauder is a [[war-sled]] of [[Jiralhanae]] origin, and as such boasts a reasonably standard design consisting of a streamlined body with two [[Anti-gravity technology|antigravity]] repulsors beneath. Unlike the similar [[Qavardu Workshop Prowler|Prowler]] war-sleds, the Marauder's driver is located in the middle of the vehicle, while the gunner is sat in the back. The rear-mounted gunner operates a [[plasma mortar]] with an integrated [[Thrasher missile]] launcher,{{Ref/NoteReuse|thrasher}} the latter of which can be used to target aircraft.{{Ref/Reuse|Enc22}} They are often used in conjunction with [[Ghost]]s as heavy support for raiding parties.{{Ref/Reuse|PL}}
 
In the case of the Marauders used by the [[Voice of Maardoth]] during the [[Carrow Conflict]], the Marauders' armour was composed of raw steel sheets salvaged by [[Hekabe]] and his forces.{{Ref/Reuse|Envoy}}
 
===Variants===
The various warlords and commanders of the Banished have created a number of distinct modular upgrades for the Marauder, making it a versatile platform that can be used in a wide range of roles. The Eklon'Dal design is one of the many Marauder variants; some upgrades have a thick layer of additional armour plating surrounding the vehicle.{{Ref/Reuse|Enc22}}{{Ref/Reuse|PL}}
*'''[[Marauder Warchief]]:''' a command variant of the Marauder fitted with two flags.
*'''[[Prowling Marauder]]:''' a Marauder variant employed by [[Shipmaster]] [[Let 'Volir]] and fitted with [[active camouflage]] for stealth operations.{{Ref/Reuse|Enc22}}{{Ref/Reuse|PL}}

The Marauder employs a [[Jiralhanae]] design that traces its origins to armored hovercraft that ranged on the plains of [[Doisac]] during the [[First Immolation|world wars]] that eventually devastated the
civilization there.{{Ref/Reuse|Enc22}}{{Ref/Reuse|PL}} The design for the Eklon'Dal Workshop Marauder was created by the eponymous [[Eklon'Dal clan]], with manufacturing done by the [[Eklon War-Forges]]. The originals were created on [[Teash]], with a handful acquired by [[Atriox]] leading to their mass commissioning for use in his Banished army.{{Ref/Reuse|Enc22}} Marauders were deployed by the Banished against the crew of the {{UNSCShip|Spirit of Fire}} in March [[2559]] during the [[Second Ark Conflict]],{{Ref/Reuse|HW2}} and again later that year during the Banished [[Operation: WOLFE|operation]] on [[Reach]].{{Ref/Novel|Id=SOR10|HSoR|Chapter=10}}
civilization there. [[Atriox]] acquired a number of these vehicles during his rise to power. He allows the [[Sangheili]] [[Let 'Volir]], to direct some of them so that they can be used as heavy support for the [[Banished Ghost]] raiders.{{Ref/Reuse|PL}} [[Jiralhanae Chieftain]] [[Hekabe]]'s forces used Marauders during the [[Carrow Conflict]].{{Ref/Reuse|Envoy}} Marauders were deployed by the Banished against the crew of the {{UNSCShip|Spirit of Fire}} in March [[2559]] during the [[Second Ark Conflict]].{{Ref/Reuse|HW2}}


Outside of the Banished, other Jiralhanae [[clan]]s make use of Marauders. The [[Voice of Maardoth]] made use of them during the [[Carrow Conflict]] in [[2558#September|September 2558]].{{Ref/Reuse|Envoy}}  
During [[Operation]]: [[Operation: WOLFE|WOLFE]] on [[Reach]], [[Blue Team]] encountered Marauders.{{Ref/Novel|Id=SOR10|HSoR|Chapter=10}}

Marauders can be built at the [[Banished Foundry]] by all Banished [[leader]]s. Unlike the other leaders, Let 'Volir is able to have his Marauders cloak once the upgrade has been purchased using a leader point. Marauders perform well against infantry, and okay against vehicles, aircraft, and structures. In [[Blitz]], Marauders cost {{HW2BlitzEnergy|70}} energy, while [[Marauder Warchief]]s cost {{HW2BlitzEnergy|120}}, and [[Prowling Marauder]]s cost {{HW2BlitzEnergy|90}}. Marauder Warchiefs buff nearby allied units to do more damage, while Prowling Marauders stay cloaked for 90 seconds.
