Description
The Badger lays mines which are fairly effective but have a limited lifespan from a distance (rather haphazardly). The Badger outranges most defenses comfortably, but is lightly armored and cannot flee easily so keep it screened with friendly units, possibly assisted by your own mines.
Tactics and Strategy
The Badger is generally too weak and inaccurate to effectively counter more robust enemy defenses like Stardust or Stingers (which would be better countered with Impalers). However, the Badger is useful in an area denial role (similar to the Firewalker), where its mines, while not particularly damaging to enemy assault units, can stop enemy raiders, skirmishers, and even cloaked units (like Scythes, Widows, and Ultimatums) dead in their tracks.
