actually, if anything I bet that these will start out being slightly too powerful against reavers/liberators. Reavers may be big and scary to you dirtymonkeys but their armor is made out of a soggy soufle.
The only angles of approach I can see on this puppy would be long distance stand off with chain guns (as someone already mentioned) or swooping down close and fast with missiles, flying nap of the earth.
Depending on the range and power of the flak cannons both techniques will probably be pretty risky.
Hopefully the dynamic that this will encourage is for ground troops to make targeting them a priority so that they can get air cover.
Speaking of airpower, how many bombs do you think a liberator is going to hold? Will they be able to carpet bomb a tower long enough to pin the enemy inside all by themselves?
Pretty easy to just have a liberator fly over a local tower and bomb it into dust before the ground troops move in.
I really hope they get rid of the tower system at some point.
