Warcraft 2: Tides of Darkness Hints

Goblin Sappers

  • Goblin Sappers are pretty much just kamikaze squads.  Build a few, and one at a time march them into the enemy.  You can usually kill 2-3 units per Sapper.  You can use Sappers to destroy Towers, but it is better to destroy Towers with Catapults or Death and Decay spells.  Do not make these units to attack; only make them to demolish enemy units.  Goblin Sappers are very weak, and would never last against a Footman.  One rule: when making a strike force, don't put them in with it.  Doing this causes their bombs to detonate, usually killing a couple of your guys with it.
