The Grunt is a basic infantry bot that's cheap to build and can quickly devastate poorly defended expansions, artillery units, and even isolated commanders. It also fills a scouting role, gathering intel while easily killing enemy scout units like Ticks.

Build up a small force to rush an undefended commander.

It is armed with two light lasers that have slightly greater range than the Pawn's guns, so you can easily take them out by "kiting" them (move back and let the Pawns come to you).
