what is your most favorite RTS unit

[xam883]

I thought this would make a good topic on the forums. My favorite RTS unit would have to be the shogun executioner from command and conquer red alert 3. If you played with it then you should understand why.

 

[Sticky Squid]

Longbowmen from Age of Empires 2.

 

[warprincenataku]

Scouts for Dawn of War 2. For me, they're the most versatile unit in the game.

 

[theonlyblaze2]

Tesla Terrorizers(not real name) from Red Alert 3.

I think Empire Earth or some game like that had a mage or wizard or something that could call down earthquakes, disease, and volcanoes on enemies. It was awesome.

 

[Lawnmooer]

Hmmm... It has to be a toss up between Roaches from SC2 due to looking and being awesome (Especially the dissolving in acid death animation they cause) and Zerglings in SC2 for just being extremely fun to use (Cracklings on creep + Micro management brings a smile to my face)

Yeah... No bonus points for guessing my favorite SC2 race


Also does it count if I have a hero map for SC2 that allows me to play Kerrigan? If so then I may have to pick her for some totally gameplay based reasons... >.>

Spoiler: The Thor. It sounds like Arnold Schwarzenegger and looks like Lemmy Kilmister. What more could you possibly want?

 

[TuringTest]

Isn't 'most favorite' a little bit redundant?

OT: Mammoth Tank.

 

[Mr. Eff_v1legacy]

The Scots Guard from Medieval II: Total War. They were both exceptional infantry and archers, being well armoured and having strong attack, so an entire army of them could stand on their own.

 

[Foobula]

Dawn of War 2 Fire Prism. Fear the fire of the crystal ray!
Or SupCom2 Loyalists, just cause they look so cool

Kinda odd to be raised by an image I actually made.

 

[Nemesis729]

Black Widows from C&C Generals, No better way to piss off your enemies lol

 

[Disaster Button]

Probably the Sooprizer or the Pulinsmash from Supreme Commander 2. I just like building 10 Pulinsmashes and have them sit outside enemy bases.

 

[Napierdalac]

Standard infantry units. Nothing more awesome than 400 men storming your enemy's base.

 

[Lord Kloo]

Fat Boy - A massive rolling fortress and factory from Supreme Commander

These bad (and fat) boys roll around at two miles per hour and are equipped with 12 battleship tier guns, 2 anti air cannons and have the ability to create any unit they want to in a short time..

Did I also mention it has a shield generator, can go underwater and can dock air craft on its roof..


The only thing that can stop these beasts is strategic bombers or well calculated artillery..
And of course the horrible spam technique..

Wasent there already a thread about this? Anyways its this thing, monkeylord experimental spiderbot:

Comes with 4000dps microwave laser, not over 9000 but it gets the job done

Well, you have to wank around with the config files if you want them to build T3 land units or aircraft, and it looks a bit silly watching one trying to build a battleship.

Also, if Valkyria Chronicles counts as RTS (it is, sorta) then my favourite unit is clearly Jann, sweetheart.

Line infantry from E:TW Upgrading them throughout the game until you fight someone who hasn't upgraded them. EPIC WIN
