Another day, another jungle, another GL build. Not the most complete build here with a big weakness to gunships, but with @originalSPECTER channeling his inner SAM site, we ended up doing the deathless duo. Nice!

Build:
As always, I'm pairing the GL with the Supply Backpack - light armour + stun nades means I can get round to hit Hulks backsides more easily, though you can hit their back with the AOE through their legs for a slower kill.
Whereas the GL is a top tier pick for bugs, I feel it's a little less powerful when it comes to bots, especially when compared with the Autocannon. While the larger AoE comes in handy for nuking enemies in dropships as they come down, its lower AP means it just falls below the threshold for targets like AA Guns and Mortar Emplacements, Hulk eyes, and Factory Strider turrets.
Bringing strats like the Orbital Precision Strike and 500kg covers you somewhat, but that still leaves a gaping weakness vs Gunships - while the GL can take out Gunships, the slow projectile speed and arc make it very tricky. Bringing a medium pen weapon like the Diligence CS, Dominator or Scorcher would be a better choice than the Breaker I went with this time, though the Breaker does very well vs Berserkers.
