Maybe treat it as a back-line infiltrator. It's job is to build some stuff that can quickly wreck havok in the back lines (particularly Folsam) and fend off some quick and feeble attempts to dislodge it.

As such, it needs scouting, raiding, possibly heavy raiding (e.g. things like Ravager swarm that outrun interception attempts while being durable enough to push through mid level defences and wreck things along their path), area cloaker, djinn to transport in armies, some AA and some dps to go with the area cloaker. Ideally it should have all terrain versions of things and as much as possible should be cloaked.

As
such,
Iris,
Conjurer,
Weaver,
Flea,
Phantom,
Ultimatum,
Djinn,
Widow,
Scuttle,
Scythe
all
seem
mandatory
for
back
line
havok.
Probably
also
Glaive
as
the
optimal
high
dps
raider.
Caretakers,
radar
towers
(
but
probably
not
advanced
radar)
and
Cornea
also
seem
obvious
choices.
For
riot
to
fend
off
quick
raider
wipes
either
Reaver
or
Redback
(
or
both)
seem
sensible.
Probably
Tarantula
for
AA.
Recluse
as
a
hard
to
dislodge
hill
skirm
also
seems
ok.

I can also see a good argument for Impaler wrecking havok with long range and high trajectory. Similarly Artemis to rapidly decimate an enemy air base and Missile Silo for some choice targetting. Can see maybe Aegis to defend those two, but iffy.

Honestly, "heavy raiding" should probably dropped as an idea, but if keeping it I think Ravager's longer range and arcing trajectory shots make it better at run-bys than Halberd, so would probably swap out Halberd for Ravager.
