This is an extremely strong card, and should nearly always be attached to Sicarius when drawn. Just +1 attack on your Warlord for 1 would be well worth it, but it also gives you Armorbane, one of the strongest abilities in the game-- and one that becomes even stronger when it's paired with a 6 HP Warlord rather than a 2 HP army unit.

Does anyone know if I can include more then one of these in my deck since it is in a signature squad. Seems like I would want to include three of these instantly.

You cannot, signature cards can only be included in their exact numbers. Besides, it's a relic and unique, even if it wasn't signature you wouldn't want to run more than one. 

If it were possible to run more than one I would trivially run three in every SM deck. Getting the effect out early can be that strong, and once you've played the first one the other two would be quite powerful as three-shield cards.

Great early game effect, decent late game (but good shield value late game). 4/5

Fantastic signature Attachment, no game comes up where it is not usefull. 5/5.
