Units?

What are the best units/set of units to get?

 

[Emperor Pan I]

I am assuming undead, well ghouls are a great way to start off. !0 ghouls and a hero can be a good rush or just a simple defence. later in game is all about personal preference. Going straight Abominations or straight necros is a bad idea. think about it as this. get an even team of maybe 5 necros and 5 abombs and work from there. If you don't want to go straigh tfor abominations, get crypt fiends ghouls and necros, or if u know they are getting air (i believe a shade is usfull in that area) get ghouls and crypt fiends. I usualy get Banshees, a less popular unit, but can be effective. Cast antimagic shield on your heros, so sleep, stun, entangle, prettymuch anything magical would be usefull. This is a realy annoying way for an ally especialy a tauren you would need to take down with force instead of magic. this is getting lengthy but i can't help boast about the undead.

yes, a variaty of different types of units is always the best strat.
You need to have that Basic/piercing atack. Without that you have already lost.

 

[Emperor Pan I]

Anti air is something ou realy need to worry about, simply because Undead don't have the greatest. For u see Crypt fiends alone cant do anything but bring em to the ground, therefore you need meele units to combat the air.

or instead of getting crypt fiends to bring down air, you could just get a couple of gargoyles to kill those air units (gargoyles have the second best Air to Air damage).

You can't say which is best because it depends on the opponents stradegy.

But I say ghouls are the best. Ghouls and THEN some additional units to back them.


It's like when the opponent is going only huntress, you should get ghouls and necs. Ghouls and necs are the best ground combination when there aren't any unts that cast dispell or heros with negation wands.

When the opponent is going air units, fiends and ghouls can be effective. Gargoyles and vampiric aura is equally as good but it depends.



Going straight to frost wyrms and aboms aren't a good idea cause a good rush could just wipe you out, and you wouldn't even have time for your heros to level up.


Start with ghouls, and then tec up. See what your unit is doing and beat him with the best unit combination qualified.

Frost wyrms cost the same amout as a necropolis (400 gold) and the upgrades, and freezing breath=LOTS of cash that required 3-5 expansions. also they realy suck against ranged like archers, and fell before cryptfiends(literaly) and are vulnurable to possession. that is why you don't go for frost wyrms.

Cash is not a problem for me.
I do not wish to share the strat i use to get rid of this gold problem.
It is not cheats that all i will say
