Weekly Discussion - Tier 1 Units

November 1, 2017 12:54:10 PM from Stardock Games ForumsStardock Games Forums

Hey everyone. I wanted to start up a weekly discussion around a specific topic and maybe get more insight on what you all think. I will provide some specific questions but you are free to venture outside the questions I provide so long as we stay on the main topic. Have fun with it and I look forward to seeing what you all come up with. 

What T1 unit do you feel is underrated?
What T1 unit is your favorite?
What T1 unit would you like to see buffed?
What T1 unit do you feel is overpowered?

Also, if you have a topic you think would make a great discussion for Ashes of the Singularity be sure to let me know.

Best 1: Reaper for the fx

T1 seems weak overall, swarms of T1 units are decimated in matter of seconds from midgame on.

Best Tier 1 to me is the Medic, as its the only one who maintains a use in to the late game. Incidentally, that makes it my favourite.

As Esch1lus said, maintaining a stock of Tier 1 units is too much work in the late game, because they die if you look at them funny.

Yea, I agree. They do a good job as fodder in the late game...lol

I feel like healing/repair units are always underrated in RTS games. Everyone focuses so much on DPS even though healing units add so much survivability.

Oh my god, THANK YOU. Having big expensive toys is meaningless if they can't survive long enough to get to the enemy's base! Repair units for life!

Medic is clearly the best T1 by far.
