Machine Gunner

Machine Gunner


Base Cost: 1000

Commandable?: 1000

Flying?: No Flying

Description: Machine gunners put down a lot of fire, very fast. A machine gunner in a one on one fight with a fighter melon will usually take an unacceptable amount of damage, and can even be killed. So why build a bigger, slower, more expensive melon if it has a hard time with single enemies? For one, these machine gun melons low accuracy and good range let them soften up large groups of melons before they even get in range of your main force. As an added bonus, they are great at hitting fast moving targets such as flying light fighters and are therefore effective as flak. NOTE: These are technically the laggiest melons in the game so try not to go overboard with these. They have proven cost prohibitive enough that this is usually not a problem.

in WM:RTS gamemode, machine gunner melons are no longer are good against fast flying units.
