Gbeto hit-and-run infantry raid
Gbeto: Gbetos deliver melee damage at range and move quickly, giving them a distinct hit-and-run role against infantry. Their high damage is balanced by fragility, so preserving movement and distance is essential.
Overview
Gbeto: Gbetos deliver melee damage at range and move quickly, giving them a distinct hit-and-run role against infantry. Their high damage is balanced by fragility, so preserving movement and distance is essential.
Plan and execution
Approach in a group, throw at a slow target, and retreat before melee units can connect. Use the speed to move between exposed Villagers or isolated infantry, while a separate line distracts the enemy army.
Risks and adaptation
Gbetos have little armor and low durability, making ranged focus fire dangerous. Do not stand still to trade or send them through a defended choke without a route out.
