===Close combat===

In addition to being able to lay down a barrage of heavy fire, Defilers are also terrifying [[close combat]] opponents. When a Defiler arrives on the battlefield, the magic keeping the bound daemon peaceful are released, allowing the daemon to truly enjoy the battle. As daemons are immortal and unconcerned for the survival of its machine host, Defilers ignore hits that would kill normal tank crews and continue on rampages of destruction that would otherwise be impossible to proceed with. Of its six limbs, Defilers use four for moving around and two arm-like appendages to crush enemies in their pincers.{{Cite This}}
