Description
The Bertha is a massive cannon that fires high-energy plasmoids across the map. Used appropriately, it can effectively suppress enemy operations from the safety of your base. Do not expect it to win battles alone for you, however.
Tactics and Strategy
Big Bertha lives up to its ancestor's name. It is used similarly to its ancestor too - bombarding the enemy base from a safe, distant location. After a while of shelling an enemy defensive line, you can send in the infantry to mop up what's left. Alternately, you can shell the enemy base directly and reduce it to rubble.
Be careful, as the enemy may made a push with all their available units to destroy Big Bertha. Have some defences ready, especially around the gun itself.
