1 I genuinely think that the Raptor plane was supposed to have been a sort of "riot" air unit. However, it seems to be only good at shooting down air units with low health like swifts and lesser units. Even more, the method of attack (basically a flying Gremlin but high on caffeine) falls short when against swarms due to the lack of AOE damage. 1 I genuinely think that the Raptor plane was supposed to have been a sort of "riot" air unit.

13 3. The ability to special-fire a payload that does not deal damage, but has a shock-wave that punts away lightweight units, thereby disrupting/scattering formations or knocking them off a cliff so that they take fall damage or possibly land in lava or acid. 13 3.
