Default Israeli Golems

Any of you guys tried using a Golem in a scenario yet?

Yes. It is meaner than the Mk III but not as nasty as a MK V. It is good as a raider but will tend to fall if it goes toe-to-toe with another OGRE or a combined arms force.

Supported by friendly armor and infantry, it is a real terror. 9 missiles and 3 secondaries deal out a lot of damage, especially when this behemoth is protected by friendly 'conventional' forces.

Have you used in any of the "standard" scenarios, one's you've come up with yourself, or a combination of both?

The Golem worked very well in the 'Raid' scenario, also in the 'Fencer Attack' Scenario

How did it fair in each? did it get beaten up, or was it a pretty fair match?

The fencer scenario. a Golem backed by 6 gev's vs. a basic force or 2 Golems vs an Advanced Force is pretty balanced.

A raid scenario with a golem as part of the raider force is pretty interesting. Depending on what reinforcements the defender gets, it can go either way.

If you have access to the Arab-Israeli Wars maps from AH, some other interesting scenarios are possible.

I like playing OGRE minis using a desert hex map from Geo-Hex, I have some scenarios for it that play well with or without Golems
