Terran Expansion Units – StarCraft: The Miniatures Game
The Terran Dominion represents humanity's military power in the StarCraft universe. Known for their adaptable tactics, advanced technology, and powerful infantry, Terran forces rely on a balanced mix of soldiers, heavy weapons, and battlefield support.
In StarCraft: The Miniatures Game, Terran armies thrive on combined-arms warfare — using infantry, mechanical units, and strategic positioning to outmaneuver enemies. Wave 1 introduces several Terran expansion units that expand tactical options for players.
These expansions allow commanders to build versatile Terran armies capable of responding to almost any threat.
Core Terran Expansion Units
Marine (ACHSCMG0012)
Terran Marines are the backbone of nearly every Terran force. Cheap, reliable, and effective in large numbers, they serve as frontline infantry capable of dealing consistent damage.
Key battlefield roles include:
- Versatile frontline infantry
- Strong ranged attack capability
- Effective in squads or defensive formations
Marines are ideal for holding positions, supporting heavier units, and forming the core of many Terran army compositions.
Marauder (ACHSCMG0013)
Marauders bring heavy firepower to the battlefield. Equipped with powerful weapons designed to destroy armored targets, they excel at countering heavily protected enemies.
Their battlefield strengths include:
- High damage against armored units
- Durable heavy infantry
- Strong synergy with Marine squads
Marauders are essential when facing durable opponents such as Protoss mechanical units or large Zerg creatures.
Medic (ACHSCMG0014)
Medics provide crucial battlefield support for Terran armies. Their ability to heal injured units dramatically increases the survivability of infantry formations.
Medics specialize in:
- Healing damaged infantry
- Sustaining frontline units during prolonged fights
- Supporting Marine and Marauder squads
A well-protected Medic can keep an entire Terran squad alive long enough to win critical engagements.
Goliath (ACHSCMG0015)
The Goliath is a powerful mechanized walker designed to deliver heavy firepower against both ground and aerial threats.
Key strengths include:
- Strong anti-armor firepower
- Mechanized durability
- Versatile battlefield presence
Goliaths add mechanical strength to Terran armies and provide a reliable counter to larger enemy units.
Hero Unit: Jim Raynor & Point Defense Drone (ACHSCMG0016)
One of the most iconic characters in the StarCraft universe, Jim Raynor joins the battlefield as a powerful hero unit.
Raynor brings leadership and combat effectiveness to Terran forces. His abilities allow him to support nearby units while delivering significant damage to enemy forces.
The included Point Defense Drone provides additional tactical advantages by helping defend nearby allies from incoming attacks.
Raynor is ideal for:
- Leading infantry squads
- Strengthening Terran frontline units
- Turning critical battles in your favor
His presence can dramatically shift the momentum of a match.
