Archangel Tactical Bomber
Introduced by TTC post Battle for Earth (2020-01-09)
Through the Reconquest, dug-in Scourge pods have been found, inhabiting buildings, ruins, and dense jungle. With Razorworms and Eviscerators making ground assault extremely deadly, the UCM Navy have traded the Interceptor's cannons for airbursting incendiary missiles. Designed to flood a garrison with fire, it burns out occupants while only lightly damaging key structures, leaving behind shells for UCM troops to take and hold - the entire ethos behind the Reconquest.

Designer Notes: “We’ve had a lot of comments about this relatively new unit. Mostly around it’s low weapon Energy. This is intentional, the mission role for the Tactical Bomber is to soften up bunkers and render contested buildings dangerous to enter. To improve it’s performance at this we’ve increased the amount of Collateral Damage tokens caused by Incendiary Missiles”
