El Kang the Quixotic is a battlecruiser commander who offered the services of his mercenaries, specifically his Kang Science Stations, to Infested Stukov.

Game Unit[]

It is possible to use El Kang's starting forces to defeat Mertick the Mauler, by using his science stations to cast EMP Shockwave on Mertick to take down his shield. Defensive matrix can also be cast on El Kang to make him survive Mertick's attacks.

Also, Mertick's custom AI script can make him not immediately counterattacks units that attack him with enough range, making the range of El Kang's attacks another advantage.

It will probably need additional forces to take down Mertick's base, however.

Abilities[]

The Yamato Gun is a powerful weapon that focuses a nuclear explosion into a beam using magnetic fields. It deals 260 damage.
