The Banshee is a light gunship optimized for swift raids on overextended and vulnerable infrastructure.

They excel at destroying Metal Extractors and other economic buildings to hamper opponents' resource gathering.

Use Banshees to destroy Radar Towers and chase down scout units to blind your enemy and prevent them from spotting your forces.

_‍_The Banshee's poor damage and armor make it a terrible combat unit, even in groups. It lacks the DPS to threaten Commanders or frontline units like Thugs and Brutes .

Fighters and any AA heavier than a Nettle will swat Banshees like flies.

Use air Scouts to confirm raiding targets before committing to an assault, but don't scout too early and give your enemies time to prepare for air units!

Banshees are better at targeting scouts and undefended extractors than Stormbringers, but are FAR worse at truly demolishing bases. Cease building Banshees once there are no more easy targets.
