Ok so if you could mix and match ANY of the Uniwar units to create yourself an army (lets stick with the standard 6) what would it be and why. Lets assume a few things:
1) you can't convert your own units to make them stronger, and your specials don't affect your own troops (So a UV won't hurt your non titan troops, and an EMP wont disable your Titans) but WILL affect your converted troops like they always do.
2) you can't change it map by map (so you can't be like, Well i'd take marines if there are mountains, but otherwise underling). Otherwise, hell if you want all the expensive units go for it. I'm still not sure what combination is my favorite but here's an example of something I'd play
Underling
Maurader
Infector
Garuda
Plasma Tank
Battery
I figure this would be a sort of "rush attack" type army... Lings, mauraders and garudas up first, followed later by the tanks and batteries. Plus mauraders and infectors... +3 heal and another action?

Underling
Infecter
Eclipse
Pinzer
Helicopter
Wyrm
Ac tually, if I had all the Khralean units, but plus the Eclipse, I'd be unstopable.

*ahem* stinger=infector=healer, no?........ant=underling...... ..that's nfong jargon for you right there.
and destroyer costs the same as a hydro except with less range. you're crazy!

...and if we don't necessarily need one of each type of unit, such as we don't need one of these three: an ant, mecha, or marine, this would be my 6 unit army.
ant
stinger
assimil ator
plasma
pinzy
walker
i like uv...

but most water maps have lots and lots of water.
examples: naval war, piriapolis, harbor(somewhat)

Sorry i confused stinger with swarmer... cuz... well they have stingers too. Yeah they have better mobility AND can attack from a range of 1 AND higher attack vs other aquatics. I guess maybe you could make the argument that hydronauts are better against ground units because of their range, but I think overall destroyers are better

I picked hydros because most water maps are bigggg, since you said you can't change your army "map by map."
but I see your point of view, too, thethanx.

Hydros can be pwnt by destroyers because they have:
-better visibility
-best firepower against aquatic (no other unit achieves the attack power of 16! )
-better mobility by 1
So if you combine vision and mobility, and by playing carefully, you can destroy hydros.
It just depends on the player really...

I guess that means all the sap players I've played against in aquatic battles must really suck...

Yes it's hard for newbies, but possible. Although if you put up the best sap player against the best titan player, I think the titan will win, but that's just me.
