Essentially, the majority of the Magniot was underground, with the GFM Cloches and armored turrets being the most numerous above ground positions.

Each bunker which projected above ground was essentially "custom designed" to fit the terrain available; making recreating the magniot line problematic without making a lot of generic icons...
