Acid Tube

==Basic Information==
The acid tube is the basic defence for the alien team and is available from stage 1.It has a close ranged attack that does significantly more damage the closer the target is.
At stage 2 the acid tube can be placed on ceilings and walls. 
==Techniques==
====Acid tube placement strategy====
Acid tubes are often placed around corners or behind cover so they are more difficult to shoot from range by human players.
"Hazard tubes" are acid tubes which are placed more openly, these are designed to limited the humans movement within your base with the creep slow. However, tubes placed this way are more vulnerable to attack.
At stage 2, acid tubes should be placed higher up on the walls so they are less vulnerable to grenades. Additionally they should be used in combination with trappers so they have more time to deal damage and are more difficult to destroy.
====Acid tube counter strategy====
Most humans weapons have the ability to out range the acid tube and destroy it from afar.
Even acid tubes that are concealed can be shot without taking damage if a specific and careful angle is lined up. Always take your time peaking corners so you can line up a favourable shot on an acid tube.
