The Stasis Chamber is a Scrin structure that unlocks the stasis shield support power and the shock trooper, and provides upgrades for the latter.
Background[]
It allows the Scrin to deploy their most advanced 'infantry': Shock Troopers, Ravagers (with a Nerve Center present), and the Mastermind or Prodigy (which also requires a Technology Assembler). The Stasis Chamber not only allows the production of these units but also provides the Scrin with the ability to upgrade them and (in the case of Traveler-59) other infantry.
Additionally, the structure can deploy a Stasis Shield, which is capable of preventing the movement of any units on the battlefield over a fairly large radius, while also rendering them invulnerable. This ability has proven to have numerous tactical ramifications. The effects of the ability are antithetical to Traveler-59, however, which values mobility above all else. Thus it is unavailable to that sub-faction.

Support powers provided[]
|
The Scrin can lock down any unit or structure within the bubble of a Stasis Shield. This impenetrable barrier renders the affected objects totally paralyzed and invulnerable to damage. Objects in stasis cannot attack, move, or otherwise act until the full 20 seconds of the bubble have worn off. The Stasis Shield costs $2000 and takes 6:00 to recharge.
