Considering that its damage dealt is low compared to both cost and to Arm's equivalent, it's definitely a weakness unless you're dealing with swarms of Fleas or something. The Arm Dragonturret is more or less effective at its obvious role (stopping swarms of Flashes/Gators/Rockos/etc.), it's just that the Core one doesn't deal enough damage to make it effective with its current miss rate.

Lemme put it this way. Arm Dragonturret kills two Flashes... Core Dragonturret does half damage to five Flashes... which is more effective?

That's actually a bad question

100 (Flash health)

100 x 2 = 200 (Arm)

100 x 5 (Divided by) 2 = 250 (Core)

Either way, it depends, you could be smart, and have a few LLT's sitting around to kill stragglers, or they could run rampant in your base and blow the hell out of your economy..

I'm just saying that Arm Dragonturret > Core Dragonturret in most situations. Apparently this is intentional.

Also, thank you for reminding me why I don't post in the AA thread often.

That's nice.

The name blows for reasons other than taste; a 4 syllable name that lacks an abbreviation is a marketing and communication disaster. AA works because it's abbreviated to, well, AA. Abolition can't be abbreviated and is too long to conveniently say, think, or write quickly.

Will Abolition players be called Abolitionists? will they escort runaway slaves through the undergound railroad? will the new ARM super unit be Harriet Tubman?
