WARSHIFT 2 - Alien Carrier Killer

All newsPlayers around this dateRead on Steam

The Aircraft Carrier is now available as an opponent, and you can face it in battle as shown in the video below:

In the first battle, the Aliens relied on a straightforward battleship strategy and were overwhelmed by the unstoppable power of the Legion’s carrier strike group.

However, in the second round, the Aliens were forced to take extreme measures and deploy their experimental weapon: kamikaze drones launched from destroyers. A mass launch of heavily armored kamikaze drones is specifically designed to break through the missile defense systems of carrier strike groups. This tactic of small, mobile groups of units proved highly effective in combat, reminiscent of the kamikaze attacks used by Japanese pilots during World War II.

As a result, the Aliens have gained a new destroyer-class unit - the Carrier Killer.

‘Disruptor’ - The Carrier Killer

‘Disruptor’ combines the role of a compact drone carrier with the durability and firepower of a destroyer. It can launch up to 5 heavily armored kamikaze drones simultaneously from medium range. It is also equipped with 3 anti-air turrets that engage enemy units using energy beams and plasma missiles.

Balance has been restored! Now it all comes down to your skill - will the Aircraft Carrier remain an unstoppable superweapon, or will it be brought down by Alien ingenuity?
