Can someone please explain in detail how exactly burried underlings get crushed when they are under a heavy unit.
1) Does crushing always do 1 damage? Does the heavy unit type make a difference?
2) Does the underling take damage when it moves under a burried unit?
3) Does the underling take damage when a heavy unit moves over it?
4) Does the underling take damage when it is under a heavy unit but niether the underling nor the heavy unit move?
5) Does the underling take damage when it is under a heavy unit. The heavy unit moves elsewhere and a second heavy unit moves over the underling?
6) Can enough crush damage kill an underling?
7) Any other cases I did not think of?
8- Does a UV blast damage buried underlings?

I was curious about the questions also, so I created a "Play Vs." game and tested all of your situations.

1) Does crushing always do 1 damage? Does the heavy unit type make a difference?
Crush is always 1 damage.. All heavy ground units cause 1 damage.

2) Does the underling take damage when it moves under a burried unit?
No

3) Does the underling take damage when a heavy unit moves over it?
No, only if the heavy lands on the underling.

4) Does the underling take damage when it is under a heavy unit but niether the underling nor the heavy unit move?
No

5) Does the underling take damage when it is under a heavy unit. The heavy unit moves elsewhere and a second heavy unit moves over the underling?
Yes, it takes 1 point of damage

6) Can enough crush damage kill an underling?
Yes

7) Any other cases I did not think of?
None, that I can think of

Does a UV blast damage buried underlings?
No

Also, the enemy's underling indicator does not include an underling directly below a peice. So, the maximum number is 6 not 7.

Thanks Aepryus.

I have to say that UV blasts would be far more useful if they did damage burried underlings.
Also, I think the game should be changed so that the answers to most of my questions are yes.
Right now underling crush is practically useless since by not moving, the underling heals 1 point every turn.

Yea I really wish that when my big ol' plasmas sit on those fragile ants they would crush a little more...
and it would be soooo awesome if UV affected ants...because right now titans don't stand much of a chance against ant spammers since titans have no aerial unit...us titan players can only spam mechas to keep those pesky ants at bay...
