The Blaster Queen is a rare evolution of the Blaster Bug caste of xenos. Presumably out of sudden need to protect its hives, this creature generates a far more potent concoction of acid and other chemicals, spooling the contents into membranous sacks to be flung far distances. - In game description

Tactical Note

• Treat as a boss unit.
• Keep at range. The Harpy Queen is essentially a flying flamethrower that is especially dangerous to vehicles.
• Use AT launchers and high-penetration weapons to destroy efficiently.
• Despite high threat level, she is relatively easy to eliminate with proper firepower.
• The Harpy Queen is immune to morale damage. She will not rout or panic, plan accordingly.
• Alien units within 6 tiles of the Harpy Queen receive a +15% boost to their discipline.
