Title is an open discussion thread.
What do think are the best and worst units in the game and why? Is there a strategy that you have seen that is just unstoppable? One that you want to use but is worthless?
Bring on the opinions in a civil manner without any of that “Your bad and you don’t matter” sort of stuff.
Wraith, Rangers, Scorpions, Cyclops, Locusts are the best.
Warthogs, Marauders, Spartans, Warlord, Honor Guard are the worst
Good thread for sure. I will answer considering all things from their viability, price, etc.
Banished
Worst: Prowler
Best: Locust
Hero: Hunter Captain
UNSC
Worst: Jack Rabbit/Warthog
Best: scorpion
Hero: Kinsano

I disagree, Snipers may have more upgrades and utility but Rangers are much cheaper and still have hight DPS

Agree to disagree I guess
Marauders and hogs are without a doubt the most useless units in the game. Everything else seems to at least fill some niche at some point in the game, but I just can never find a use for those two.
Heroes aren’t the best, but they do provide some interesting utility in combat, being able to really mix things up.
Best are the Scorpion and Locust.
covy wraiths byfar
unsc i like cuclopse with cutrer but idk cause tanks are good but wraith shroud is 10x better
most useless unit is obveous, warhog maruder. they have no use and are not worth there price even upgraded. jackrabbits are also horrible units
best hero either atreox or the captain. i wish spartans were more useful
UNSC
Best: Scorpions, snipers, hellbringers, cutter’s cyclops,
worst: the spartans, wolverines, warthogs, jackrabbits
Banished
Best: Choppers, wraiths, Locusts, Hunter captain, Atriox’s chosen, banshees, blisterbacks, Decimus
Worst: Ghosts, Goliaths, marauders, rangers,
Worst: Marauder. And it’s not just a matter of the unit in itself, it’s just that pricetag. Hogs are cheaper but still very much useless.
Best: Can’t pick up a best unit, there are many units that perform very very well in their roles. But I guess I’ll go for Tanks due to their performance against their own counters.

1 on 1 rangers beat snipers
snipers cost power which delays tech early on while covy rangers cost mostly supply which means making them at tech 2 does not delay tech 3 really
thus rangera 10x better plus with shrous coverage snipers render useless

You guys are crazy😂. Marauders are dope asf. They stack up well against everything. They’d be one of the most used units in the game if they were 300 supply. Their shot slows you down and they’re tough to take down which makes them very useful early, mid and late game. You guys just don’t like the price tag, I think…
For example, you can incorporate 3 of them into your army to slow down locusts.

Not asking for a 300 price tag. 400 to 300 is a 25% off, that would be an insane buff.

350 or 375. 400 is a little high.

Snipers have a stun so it literally impossible for them to lose an infantry 1v1.
When y’all talk about Warthogs being a poor unit, does that include FlameHogs?
