Reaver is the Protoss heavy siege unit capable of leveling entire enemy bases on it's own.
Lore
Assaulting an enemy encampment can be a very costly affair and, rather than needlessly sacrificing lives, the Protoss have developed a robotic war machine known as the Reaver to use as mobile artillery. The Reaver is heavily armored and houses a micro-manufacturing plant to produce tiny, highly explosive drones called Scarabs. Although the Reaver carries no weapons, a well-placed wave of Scarabs can reduce both troops and buildings to rubble in moments.
The reaver evolved from a civilian mobile manufacturing unit that was militarized to become a mobile artillery piece, ensuring that fewer lives would be lost when assaulting enemy bases. Somewhat fittingly, reavers have become renowned for levelling entire colonies in moments.
