New Unit Showcase – Catalyst Gunship

Introducing a miniature missile in the form a flying helipad - NOD’s latest anti-infantry air unit– Catalyst Gunship! Read on for tips, tricks, and counters to master this new unit.

NOD: CATALYST GUNSHIP

Utilizing the power of Catalyst Missile, Jade has miniaturized its explosive capabilities to be fired from a helicopter in Catalyst Gunship. Combined with an underslung 40mm Chemical Grenade launcher, this unit can create concentrations of Tiberium gas to ignite with its own missiles.

Stats:

  • Faction: NOD
  • Building: Helipad
  • Rarity: Rare
  • Tiberium Cost: 50
  • Unlocks at Player Level 33

If you love the smell of Tiberium every morning, Catalyst Gunship is the thing for you! This unit creates a Tiberium Cloud every 4 seconds and fires a missile that ignites within this cloud.

Designed with missile launchers on the side and an underslung grenade launcher, the unit has a progress bar on its back that starts empty but fills up as it begins to fire the Tiberium Grenade Launcher.

Additional Details:

  • Will not detonate enemy Chemical Units but can detonate enemy Chemical Clouds.
  • Will not detonate on Tiberium.
  • Explosion created by Catalyst Gunship will not chain react with Chemical Units.
  • Mini explosion will not hit air units.

Counters:

  • Phantom (NOD), Attack Bikes (NOD), Widowmaker (NOD)
  • Hammerhead (GDI), Pitbull (GDI), Sandstorm (GDI)

From the Devs:

"Utilize the Gunship's primary and secondary attack to dispatch powerful infantry units. Works well as a combo with other chem based units or as a standalone infantry specialist" – Py
