Post what your favorite unit is. I must find out.:mwaha: :evil: FYI mine is the Modern Armor
 
Immortals rock like no one else. :)
Go Immortals!
 
Depends on the situation, really.

Obviously, nothing much would get done without workers and settlers.

I'm partial to Sipahi. They can be very advantagous if you get to Military Tradition before everyone else.

I try to get to Infantry asap too. They go a long way to defending against most modern units, especailly when combined with Civil Defense, Arty and Radar Towers. Of course, MI reign supreme, but Infantry do good until I get there.

Modern Armor is nice, too.

Really, can you pick? There's so many that are used in different ways it's hard to choose. . .
 
I really like the tank too, probobly because of my last game where I took a massive tech lead following a well placed early industrial GA (Grabbed TOE and Hoovers) and ended up with a huge industrial core and tech superiority, then I rolled over my enemies
 
Gotta go with the warrior. Nothing beats exploring with the first couple
 
I love battleships. They make so much noise when they fire I have remember to turn my speakers down.

It's also quite fun seeing a battleship go up against a galleon. :D
 
well, i'd say if you are counting UUs it has to be the Jaguar warrior. (effectively its a combined warrior/scout/chariot without any required resources & cheap too)

Of the non-UUs i'm rather partial to the artillery :goodjob:
(or more precisely a stack of 50 or so of them):evil:
 
I don't have one favorite unit.
So I will say that my first favorite( I mean just becouse it does apear earlier) is drafoons and cavalary and crusairs.

Thats becouse till I get them I don't fight, and then i Build a big number ot them and fight with everyone till the enemyes sityes are depended by riflmens( in DYP 8,8,1) and withe the difensive binus they are really deadly!!!), so I stop my advance and wait to tanks...
 
Berserks, as a massive upgrade of Archers, come to play very early (long before Cavalry) and those huge axes just look sooo cute!
Plus they don't require any resources!
 
The trusty old Spearman. He can save your ass uncountable times in the Ancient era :)
 
Hmm...

Okay, I'd have to put out a couple.

The Immortal, because he lays waste to everything in the ancient arena for 30 shields.

The Sipahi, because their eight attack and three movement never go out of style, even into the modern age (they're quite useful to eliminate enemy guerillas and other footsoldiers in that respect, and they're unstoppable against anything weaker than infantry).

And the artillery. The ultimate multipurpose unit. Shave a few points off of the attacker before he hits your city, making your defender's job easier, whittle down the enemy city to make your attacker's job easier (and the subsequent garrison), pummel roads and resources to hinder the AI's movement and production.

Ungawa. Dig it.


Later!

Sorry -- I got so excited I forgot to vote...

I'd have to go w/ the trusty spearman. A lone spearman down to one hp just defended my capital from a horde of barbarian horsemen (ending up as a fully healed elite the next turn :cool: ). I can't afford to insult them... I suppose a hoplite would be pretty high up there on my list too.
