Covert banshees are special forces employed by Nova in Co-op Missions. They replace the standard banshee.

Game unit[]

Covert banshees deploy in teams of two from Nova's starport for a cost of 700 minerals and 375 gas. Compared to normal banshees they have higher HP and damage, and can use rocket barrage to do heavy area damage. Unlike the standard banshee they cannot use cloak, but can research the ability to be permanently cloaked.

When leveling, they are a gas-efficient source of single target anti-ground DPS, beating out the DPS of the unsieged tank unit, making them a good choice for taking out void structures and other mission objectives. It may however be an issue getting enough deployment charges to effectively spend all of one's gas on banshees, especially if the starport has been delayed for any reason. Once Raid Liberators get the Raid Artillery upgrade however, Banshees are largely outshone by the damage from their Concord Cannon.
