Raiders?

[Clippers]

I got a idea, i havent tryed it yet becuase i wanted to run it past everyone in this forum. how does Raiders and Grunts sound? i mean if you go grunt and catapults(which i have been doing) you have no AA but with raiders you can net the buggers down.also they are good with destroying buildings. so please, give me some feed back.
Thx

dude that stragery, is mention here 10000000000129038901849038141838948998193084891903975719774907582170870 times, is an old one, but it works.

Yes, it has been used quite often lately with the direct damage nerf of Bat Riders. Though, this is the counter to heavy air only, light air that's easily massed is not stopped by Raiders, but because of massable air's low HP, Bat Riders are the way to go. Remember, they come from the same building.

raiders aren't my thing but i neva see anyone use dem anyways

 

[burnning acid]

i use them quiet often but you will need aa for light armored units

i hate raiders so much they die way to fast.

However if you mix em with bats with liquid fire i think that would be a nice siege right there.

I use raiders all the time. I get the enemy pissed by harassing with cataputls and kill em with raiders.

i hate raiders they aren' t that great one time there was this person who tried to get quick raiders i raped his ass so easily it wasn't funny

 

[burnning acid]

yeah that is why he have grunts and headhunters

 

[burnning acid]

yeah that is why you shoud make some hh except grunts of course although they dye tooooooo fast cuz they are good at destroying buildings not armies

^^ dont double post ^^;;;

Also, Raiders are nice, remember the NE strat for orc torubu? i tried it on some smurfer, he blocked it with raider >.< ensare all my riders, and they fall onto the other side of the trees when i was flying on the trees, how strange.... And no, i had my best micro, killed about 3 burrows and like 10 peons, few HH and 3 raiders... cuz of annoying ensare... and the guy did harass me good....

With raiders added to ur gruntapult, u will be able to kill air, but not massed air =/

 

[burnning acid]

i some kind agree with but that is why he should make about 8 or 9raiders and 5 hh except the gruntapults of course

 

[Ntrik_]

no, remember that raiders and HH have medium armor, and will be raped when they encounter normal attack units like huntress, so at least 3 grunts should be enuf, and put about 5 raiders only. 5 raiders are still enuf since u'd have 5 HH to rape rest of the air. and FOCUS FIRE!!! is the key.
