If I remember right.. there are no lvl2 units that can outrange an annihilator.

Merls/Diplomat, or Tremor can't outrange an annihilator, the only mobile units that can are the (CORE)Catapult and the (ARM)Aegis(which is now EMP freeze missles).

Merls can get inside the maximum distance of an annihilator and fire, but if there is radar nearby an annihilator will hit any lvl-1 or lvl-2 unit that comes within its range first.

Annihilator is pwn. I love Annihilator.

However, once again, its easily pwned in turn by decoy units (Fleas! Yay!) and line of sight with artillery and Merls behind it.

Vanguards don't outrange Annihilators, but they come very close. Off the top of my head, it's something like: Vanguard range=1280, Annihilator range=1450. The difference is roughly the firing range of a Flash, IIRC.

However, all a Vanguard needs is a little hill, or better yet a damn invincible tree!!!!! and it'll be sitting pretty.
