Description

  • Launches its cruise missiles before it reaches the target.
  • Its flight path is uncontrollable, but the cruise missiles are.
  • Singlehandedly launches 4 cruise missiles.

Usage

  • The timer for its usage takes a long time to reload, so target important structures with it.
  • It is effective against all targets, but structures are recommended to targets.
  • Can be called from your Command Center. So make sure it is intact.

Against Infantry

Kills infantry instantly.

Against Tanks

Kills all tanks with a single successful hit.

Against Buildings

Can destroy most structures but not hardened ones.

How to defend against

  • Interceptors can shoot them down early if you can detect them early, but focus on the cruise missiles instead of the launch platform.
  • Stationary and mobile Anti-Air weapons are also capable of shooting down the cruise missiles easily.
  • Make sure that you micromanage your Anti-Air defenses to make sure that not all missiles go to one target, and since it launches 4 cruise missiles, micromanagement is a must here.
