Striker

Strengths

What this unit does well

• Area electric damage works well against swarms and tight groups.
• Can power down weakened non-shielded targets.
• Its speed lets it reposition for better attack angles.

Weaknesses

What can go wrong

• Light armor leaves it vulnerable if caught.
• Electric profile is less efficient into shielded units.
• Relies on positioning to get real value.

Doctrine

How Aliens should use it

Use Strikers to punish density. They are best when the opponent wants to march as a group and keep a timing window open.
