You know how much you hated Rippers?!

Guess what.

YOU CAN'T BUILD THEM ANYMORE THEY HAVE BEEN REPLACED WITH RAVENERS IN TIER 1.


Ha ha, what?

Rippers just needed their capping ability taken away. They actually had a useful combat roll since they were the only tier 1 counter to heavy weapon teams.

Why carnifexes though? By that point in the game rippers aren't too useful. Besides being a crappy weapon to waste a carnifex on, the barbed strangler was crap because spore mines were also pointless at that point.


Raveners would have been fine in tier 2. Tier 1 is pretty ridiculous. OOPS THAT'S WHAT WE MEANT TO DO ALL ALONG
