It would be nice to know a strategy to defend against it. Those scouts can move a long way.

I don't think they can jump over top of units or into areas they can't see. Does that mean build walls of units wherever you don't want them to go? That sounds expensive.

To quote from the 'Tips for New Players'-Thread:

• You cannot move or see through enemy units and vice versa. It can be handy to form walls with your units on specific maps to prevent your opponent from running or looking past your defenses.
  

Of course, this is highly dependent on the map you are on. Positioning Snipers in such a way that they can shoot the Runners before their second jump (which will bring them to your base) would work. Otherwise pushing them back bit by bit and most importantly: you do not need to kill a Runner next to your base - it will take 5 turns for that thing to destroy your base. Keep a cool head and outwit your opponent!
