Six blade-wings around a long gun. It reassembles once after it falls.
On the battlefield
The Seraph is an air sniper: two flyers with a long wing gun that hits air and ground at 120 m for 2,814 a shot. It sits above the ground fight and picks off heavies that cannot shoot back, and in the launch tests it beats the Ridgeback, the Cutter, the Torch, the Aurochs, the Anvil, the Weaver, the Salvo and the Breaker. It is fragile (2,236 HP), so anti-air ends it quickly: Hexguards, Coursers, Rotors, the Heron and the Dreadnought all win.
Loses to
From equal-supply battles of each pair at 400, 800 and 1,600 supply (no techs, 20 seeds each). Real armies mix units, so read these as tendencies.
Where to deploy
Behind your line, out of reach of the enemy's anti-air, where its range covers the clash.
Early and late rounds
A mid-game buy (250 supply, 50 unlock) when the enemy has gone heavy on ground armor without anti-air.
Techs that change its job
Rebuild Protocol has it reassemble once, 12 s after it falls, at full HP: two lives for one price. Shield Cell doubles its HP with a shield, and Long Barrels (+40 m) keeps it even further from the guns that can reach it.
