Alright, let's dive into Part 21 of our StarCraft II journey. This section focuses on some really interesting unique units and vehicles, giving you a closer look at what makes them tick. We'll break down their stats, abilities, and how they fit into your army. Think of this as getting to know your elite squad and heavy hitters!

Ghost

These are your Dominion's precision killers, capable of calling in devastating Tac Nukes (300 damage, 500 to structures, 20-second call-in) or using a Sniper Round for 45 damage to biological targets (costs 25 energy). Don't forget their Cloak ability, though be aware some units can spot them. They cost 150 minerals, 150 vespene gas, and take 2 supply. They have 100 life, 200 energy, 0 armor, and move at 2.25 speed. Their C-10 Canister Rifle deals 10 damage (20 vs Light) with a range of 6 and a weapon speed of 1.5, targeting both air and ground.

Spectre

Think of these as souped-up Ghosts. They also have the Tac Nuke Strike (same stats as the Ghost's) but bring the Ultra Sonic Pulse to stun enemies in a small radius (costs 50 energy, 3-second cooldown). Like Ghosts, they can Cloak, but watch out for detection. They cost 150 minerals, 150 vespene gas, and 2 supply. They have 80 life, 300 energy, 0 armor, and move faster at 2.75 speed. Their AGR-14 Gauss Rifle deals 15 damage (20 vs Armored) with a range of 6 and a weapon speed of 2, hitting both air and ground.
