Tips and Tricks

The Goliath’s brittle cockpit and missile bay are great targets, but keep in mind that after the first hit, Reflexive Coating will replace the brittle with armor until the beginning of the next turn.

Although it is possible to manipulate the Goliath into shooting its own mines for extra damage, its frequent multiattacks make this strategy a little tricky.
