I'm just curious what it is, because today I had ALL the units in my roo die. Was it just bad luck, or do units have the a chance to live?

[spinn72]

bad luck.  It's the same death chance as any other halftrack vehicle i think, though all of them have been modified for EIR:R.

For 150 fuel though it's too costly to have anyway.

Kangaroo has a super high death rate.

So get out before you die.

The kangaroo death rate is extremely high. This is because it's extremely hard to kill. Ungarrison your units before it explodes -- you should have plenty of time.

Eh to be quite honest..shrecks seem to have a crazy modifier against it and obviously never miss it because its such a huge boxy vehicle, this being said they aren't exactly extremely hard to kill, Paks are quite effective and tanks probably being the least.. yes you are right they are definitely harder to kill then an IHT but not extremely 

[Latios418]

Extremely hard to kill? Only for their VCoH cost. They're not that tough, but for their vcoh cost (which is an incredibly cheap cost of 240mp/10fu) you have the toughest unit in the game (again, for cost). When you significantly raise that cost, it's not so tough.

they aren't hard at all to kill, and i dont use much fuel as brits, so it's nice to keep my Lt and capt safe and for picking up and dropping off troops. I actually really like it.

I guess it was horrible luck, it still had about 20% health, not sure what hit it, but it instantly exploded and killed a capt, lt, and 2 tommys, wasn't even a rear shot.

It's a 650 hp Cromwell. Default Croms are 636. Your other point, on model boxes, would be an impacting factor - except the simbox values are smaller than the Crom's.

when units are exiting from the roo, they can't be hit, neither can they be sniped odr hit by any other type of fire, so you can basically get a full health squad out before it dies.
