Joe Prozinski has created the Shard army list for No Limits. Figures are available from Iron Wind Metals, Ral Partha Europe and eBay. Fledgling Fledglings are the newborns of the shard, having a quadruped form and lacking offensive weaponry, they are plentiful in number. Used to overwhelm the enemy, dieing quickly, the elders view this early combat duty as valuable experience. Fledgling Crawler Some Fledglings are born with fragile matrices, unable to make the difficult transformation to trueform. Because of their fragile matrices, they are short lived and are only able to maintain their forms for a few years. During their short existence they are used as small roving weapons batteries, a dedicated addition to the shard cause. Crawler Nanite Swarm Composed of the nanites that inhabit the shard crystal, these ravenous mounds consume matter and create the crystal of the shard home world. They appear as large blobs that constantly flow across the battlefield as they devour. Nanite Swarm Husk Occasionally when a shard dies, the nanites inhabiting the crystalline husk continue to function. However they are only able to mimic the duties they performed most frequently while the shard was alive. Axions use these shambling hulks as heavy shock troops. Strider These small and fast deadly war machines are fielded in reckless and suicidal ways, making them even more dangerous in battle. Their superior speed and heavy weapons make it easy for them to punch holes in enemy lines. Strider
