Tech 2 – Aeon Air Units

MERCY – GUIDED MISSILE

The Mercy is exactly what it says: a tiny guided missile. It can’t recharge fuel, so you have only a short time to throw it at the enemy Commander, which it will kill in four shots. They’re faster than a bomber and far more deadly, but don’t waste them on anything except the most important of targets. To fight against guided missiles, your opponent will need to be thinking about air defense long before he sees the radar dots heading his way.

SKIMMER – TORPEDO BOMBER

Torpedo bombers are all but useless. Aeon has great naval forces, so you should really only need these if you forgot to build navy and subs are preventing you from getting a foothold in the water. They’re expensive and they do so much damage that it’s difficult to have them target enough enemy ships on the first pass – because some of their shots will be deflected by anti-torpedoes and they will rarely survive to make a second pass.

SPECTER – GUNSHIP

Aeon gunships are quite effective. Their laser actually won’t always hit a moving enemy unit, but their decent armor lets them survive for longer than your bombers while delivering pinpoint airstrikes. Use these to kill undefended Mass Extractors and land forces, other gunships, or just stockpile a huge wing and kill their ACU with it. These guys are the reason to build interceptors.

ALUMINAR – AIR TRANSPORT

While it’s nice that the air transport can defend itself, its main method of defense is its “heavy” armor, allowing it to take a couple shots from air defenses and still drop its cargo. They carry twice the amount of units that a T1 transport does: 12 T1 guys, 6 T2 guys, 3 T3 guys, or an ACU/SCU. If your Commander is being transported, he won’t die with the air transport.
