The Archerfish is an animal from Impossible Creatures.
Description[]
The Archerfish is aptly named for its unusual offensive strategy of shooting water in a powerful stream to dislodge its insect prey from overhanging vegetation and into its waiting mouth. Found in both fresh and salt waters, the Archerfish is bow-shaped and nearly flat, running 18 cm (7 in) in length. This species dwell nears the surface, closer to its prey and is golden in color and either spotted or striped with black.
Strategic Value[]
The Archerfish has a unique ranged attack in its ability to bombard land units with massive sprays of water, making it one of only two artillery creatures in the game. Artillery units are extremely effective against other kinds of ranged units, like the Electric Eel or Chameleon. Compared to the game’s second artillery unit, the Chimp, the Archerfish generally does more damage but has less range than the Chimp.
