The Shroud is capable of approaching battlefield situations in two distinct modes. When deployed, it can generate a persistent [[cloaking]] field around itself that also conceals troops, vehicles, and other ordnance near enough to it. When it isn't making use of this function, it can employ a point defense system that can shoot down enemy projectiles. Despite this, the Shroud has no truly offensive capabilities. The Shroud is notoriously difficult to pilot due to its complicated subsystems that are generally unreliable.<ref name="PL">'''Halo Wars 2''': [[Phoenix Logs#Banished Units|Phoenix logs]]</ref> | The Shroud is capable of approaching battlefield situations in two distinct modes.
