Faction Units of the Alien Race (Scrin)

Infantry:

	Buzzers	Cost: $200	Function: Infantry Killer
	Description: A swarm of small razor blade-like creatures that can swarm around enemy infantry and cut them to shreds very quickly. They can be attached to several Scrin vehicles for added anti-personnel protection.

	Disintegrators	Cost: $300	Function: Anti-Vehicle
	Description: These are the Scrin anti-tank infantry. They use a disintegrating laser to destroy enemy vehicles.

	Shock Trooper	Cost: $800	Function: Advanced Tactical Assault
	Description: These are the Scrin equivalent to the GDI Zone Trooper. They are quite well rounded and can deal fair damage to almost anything, and can be upgraded for more destruction. Their one weakness however is from the air.

	Assimilator	Cost: $500	Function: Capture Buildings/Repair Vehicles
	Description: This is the Scrin Engineer. Like other Engineer units it can capture enemy buildings instantly and repair your own structures. As an addition, this unit can stealth when still. Like other Engineers, it can capture destroyed mech units (GDI Juggernaut, Nod Avatar, Scrin Annihilator)

	Mastermind	Cost: $1500	Function: Elite Unit
	Description: This is the Scrin Commando, in a sense. It has the ability to transport your own units across the map. It is however, unarmed, in that it cannot attack using conventional means. Instead the Mastermind places a Manipulator Device on enemy units and structures, taking control of them. One one unit or structure can be manipulated at once though.

Vehicles:

	Explorer	Cost: $1500	Function: Outpost Builder
	Description: The Scrin equivalent of the GDI Surveyor Mini-MCV. You can drive it anywhere and deploy it to gain the ability to construct buildings there.

	Harvester	Cost: $1000	Function: Resource Collector
	Description: This harvester performs the same functions as its GDI and Nod counterparts, it harvests Tiberium and returns it to the refinery. It appears to be flying, but targetable by ground units, thus being some kind of a hover unit.

	Gun Walker	Cost: $700	Function: Light Assault Unit
	Description: An early game unit which is effective versus infantry. It is, like most Scrin units, armed with a laser cannon.

	Seeker	Cost: $800	Function: Anti-Air and Anti-Vehicle assault
	Description: An anti-aircraft and anti-tank unit. It is capable of detecting stealth. It launches several photon projectiles at enemy ground and air units

	Devourer Tank	Cost: $1400	Function: Artillery
	Description: This is the Scrin's artillery unit. It is armed with a long-range laser to destroy vehicles and buildings with ease from a distance. It can also harvest Tiberium to increase its offensive power.

	Corrupter	Cost: $1000	Function: Medium Assault Unit
	Description: An arachnid-like unit that carries a large container of toxic material on its back, spraying its enemies with them to poison them to death.

	Annihilator Tripod	Cost: $3000	Function: Heavy Assault Unit
	Description: The Scrin's Mech Unit. This 3-legged vehicle fires lasers capable of destroying everything on the ground in rapid time. It can be upgraded with shields at the Technology Assembler.

Aircraft:

	Drone Ship	Cost: $3000	Function: Base Builder
	Description: This is the Scrin MCV, which, unlike other MCVs, is an aircraft. It can be deployed into a Drone Platform.

	Stormrider	Cost: $1500	Function: Light Air Unit
	Description: The Scrin's light attack fighter, similar in role to the Orca Fighter. It does not need to land and reload, however does require the presence of a Gravity Stabiliser to stay functional. It can attack both ground and air.

	Devastator Warship	Cost: $2400	Function: Heavy Assault Bomber
	Description: This is the Scrin bomber craft. It is capable of bombarding the ground with plasma bombs and is especially good against base defenses. It does not need to land to reload, but is entirely defenseless against aircraft.

	Planetary Assault Carrier	Cost: $3000	Function: Fighter Carrier
	Description: This airship is defenseless on its own, but it capable of launching around 10 aircraft to defend it. It can also create an ion storm beneath itself and is upgradable with shields at the Technology Assembler.
	Mothership	Cost: $5000	Function: Special Unit
	Description: The Scrin Mothership is the ultimate Scrin Aircraft. Only one can be summoned at a time, and a Signal Transmitter is required to summon one, but when summoned, its destructive power is only matched by that of the superweapons'. It moves slowly and is not able to attack the air, but fires a Catalyst Cannon against ground units and structures. This is similar to the Ion Cannon, and can devastate an undefended base very quickly.
