Argh, lets stop talking about this "unstoppable defense" lol.

QUESTION: Has anyone really used the special forces from the special ops? I used them during a test and the marines took a lot of fire from the base, but that is about all I noticed.

Though phantoms would die to my sakatas and the hover tanks would die to... well my hover tanks. It would take about 10 phantoms before even getting the health of my hover tank to slowly decrease. My blackqueen will fire at the hovertanks and would give the upper edge towards the fight.

special forces suck, tried them against a couple hovertanks and boom goes the 100 influence.

srsly. lets talk modified sakata. best modded unit there is.

Well the best "modded" is the sakata but the best "influence" is the scramble rescue team. Simple medic will increase survivability towards all your ground units. The modded sakata will only just have survivability towards that 1 unit. Not much of a use there.

but its awesome, once it gets to base with no units at it, no way to beat it cuz it heals itself. and attacks so demm fast.

Well, I did mention the mod sakata, and it definately has more use than a normal one, like I said, it can take a base by itself, can draw alot of fire, and is VERY good at hit and run **note, most ppl don't use medics for some reason, so hit and run is great**

Don't you think they marines took a lot more fire because of the medics that come with the special forces?

If more people did use medics, there's no need to hit and run. You can just keep firing at the base because the medics will heal out the damage.

medics can heal the central base?

medics can heal the central base?

Uhh... no. He's saying hit and run the base with a unit. And i'm saying medics will heal the damage the central base does.

But the Mod Sakata doesn't need meds to heal him, I was talking about hit and running enemy units, and since some ppl don't use meds, their units won't be healed.

yea. modded satakas heal themselves which is why they are so own.

Yes i know that it heals themself. But your saying you can hit and run with most units (which is true), but other units don't have taht self healing capability, so which is why medics make it equal to a modded sakata.
