Who is the Peacemaker?

The Peacemaker is the main and most frequently used unit in the game. It works well in mixed compositions.

The Peacemaker is effective at every stage, moves well, and attacks ground and air targets. Its low cost lets you assemble large squads quickly, while upgrades keep them strong in the late game.

Peacemaker builds

A build is the order in which you construct buildings and produce units. Below are three main early-game openings based on Peacemakers.

Build 1. Building a Barracks at the enemy base (Barracks Rush)

Note: this requires good Peacemaker micro skills.

Produce two Workers, but send the first one to the opponent’s base.
As soon as the Worker reaches the opponent’s base, build a Barracks.
When you have 10 ore, use the second Worker to build a Reactor at your base.
Produce a Peacemaker and try to damage the opponent’s economy as much as possible.

Build 2. Early Peacemaker attack (Peacemaker Rush)

Produce two Workers. As soon as you have 12 ore, build a Barracks.
While the Barracks is under construction, save another 10 ore and use the second Worker to build a Reactor.
Once the Barracks is complete, produce one or two Peacemakers and send them to the opponent’s base.

Build 3. Surprise attack with a large group of Peacemakers

Note: this mostly works at low ranks, below 1800 MMR.

Produce two Workers, but send the first one toward the opponent’s base.
As soon as the Worker reaches the opponent’s base and stops in front of it, build a Barracks.
Meanwhile, once you have 10 ore, build a Reactor at your base.
Once the Barracks is complete, produce three to six Peacemakers and attack. Build a second Reactor if needed.

Peacemaker chevrons: what they are and how they work

Chevrons are curved stripes shown above the unit. They have three levels:

+10% health and damage
+20% health and damage
+30% health and damage + regeneration

To earn one chevron, the Peacemaker must deal a certain amount of damage to enemy units.

Upgrades in the Barracks and Laboratory buildings

Each upgrade level adds another 10% of base health or damage to infantry. The cost rises in sequence: 10 → 20 → 30 ore.

Armor I

Armor II

Armor III

+10%, +20%, +30% to infantry health.

Attack I

Attack II

Attack III

+10%, +20%, +30% to infantry base attack.

Two Laboratory researches are also available for the Peacemaker:

Overclock

Every second Peacemaker explodes, while all survivors receive the following changes:
+1 movement speed (3 → 4).
+100% rate of fire (interval 1 → 0.5 seconds).
−20% base health before the Shield bonus.
+0.1 unit size (0.4 → 0.5).

Shield

The Peacemaker gains 52 additional health.

The “Peace-Lynx” combo

“Peace-Lynx” is slang for an army of Peacemakers and Lynxes. This composition uses roughly two Peacemakers per Lynx.

This tactic is effective on large maps with rich ore deposits. Peacemakers need Overclock researched and applied, as well as Shield researched.

The main counter to this composition is mass Lynx production.

Peacemakers + Titans + Devastators + Waves

The tactic works very well in the early stages of the game and on small maps. Such an army keeps a balance of every unit, for example: 4 Peacemakers, 2 Devastators, 1 Titan, 1 Wave.

The main counter is an army of Peacemakers.

Peacemakers and only Peacemakers

This composition works best at lower ranks and requires good control. Be sure to research Shield in the Laboratory. At higher ranks, the tactic can work if the opponent does not expect a large number of Peacemakers and you have at least three Barracks.

The main counter is mass Lynx production backed by good control.

What does the Peacemaker say?

Peace to all.
Peace.
I am ready.
Certainly.
Hide.

What holds power?
Freeze!

Believe me.
