The combined 18 armor/shield mitigates damage down to 15 % (0.9 ^ 18). The earth crusher also has a regeneration of 24 hp per turn, comparable to 134 regeneration per turn for a unit with armor/shield 0.
The crusher has a repeating attack that deals 23 damage per hit at a range of 9, with an aoe and CC effect, as seen in the screenshot. This unit is a monster.
I found myself very lucky when trying the Dvar out. This city, with 2 silver landmarks, gives units produced in it:
+3 armor (engineering guilds)
+1 armor & shield per unit tier (the landmarks)
+3 ranks & 50 % more experience gain (level 5 research sector off-screen)
-30 % upkeep costs (energy efficient assembly line)

Jesus. That made me cream my pants. Does this game have map seeds? I haven't noticed but if it does, please share!
