Reapers: Grenades or Mines?

[DemolitionSquid]

So I can just build 10 reapers and demolish your 5 Pylons? Or Nexus? Yeah, fucking great! They can put lower timer so you can use them effectively against units. Otherwise it is idiotic. You can't prevent them from exploding, so he can destroy, for example, Roach Warren with so little effort. There is no balance there...

The Charges have 10 HP and a 3 second fuse. A single shot from pretty much anything will destroy them. Get your facts straight.

It was a very very slight exageration. And goliaths, wraths, thors and ghosts do shoot rockets. Oh and battlecruisers if you get the upgrade.

They can shoot rockets, but they also have other weaponry. It's not the only things they shoot. And what rocket do ghosts shoot?

[ArcherofAiur]

Those 'rockets' are still rocket propelled grenades.

I count that as a rocket.

The Reaper's mine is not a real mine. It's a charge. It's a time bomb that's thrown. Grenades are more or less delayed explosives, not timed.

I count that as a mine. Here is the current model.

He considers Lockdown a rocket.

[RamiZ]

And really, everything shoots rockets? Marines don't, neither do Hellions, battlecruisers, ghosts, tanks, firebats, wraiths, goliaths, vultures, or Thors. I'm probably missing some units as well.

Seriously, half of those do shoot rockets. Ghosts has EMP in SC2, which should count as a rocket too.

The Charges have 10 HP and a 3 second fuse. A single shot from pretty much anything will destroy them. Get your facts straight.

Even with that I want to see you targeting Mines in the middle of the fight against Reapers, and 3 second are fast... It still isn't balanced.

[DemolitionSquid]

I count that as a rocket.

You count a grenade as a rocket?

Suddenly, all your idiocy makes sense.

[Pandonetho]

He considers Lockdown a rocket.

lol, I guess I should've expcted the "Archer Logic."

Seriously, half of those do shoot rockets.

Yes, but that's not the ONLY thing they shoot. His "very very slight exaggeration" consisted of "every other Terran unit."

Terrans have a wide variety of weapons besides rockets.

[ArcherofAiur]

Yah its just 85% rockets...not 100%

You count a grenade as a rocket?

I count the animation of a rocket as a rocket attack not a grenade attack. I think the terran have enough rocket attacks. And frankly if word play is the best you can do to support your arguement....

[Arkalis]

There were Fragmentation Grenades throwed as weapon by the Vulture, but in SC2 there should be more grenades...they are much cooler than mines

[DemolitionSquid]

And frankly if word play is the best you can do to support your arguement....

I just gave 3 sources stating they're grenades. You have an animation that could be either a grenade or a rocket. I think my position is fairly solid.
