What is your favorite unit so far and why!?

[Visarion]

My favorite unit is... because...

[torzsoktamas]

Hard to tell:
My favourites to first sight are:
The Traikian Rhomphaiophoroi,Daoi elite infantry,Thorakitai Argyraspides(I also like the thorakitai arabes for their looking,but they are weaker).I also like the roman legions,expecially the Adiutrix.Other favourits are the auxilliaries,expecially the batavian.

There are other units that I like.Like the naked fanatics and naked spearmans.I read that they were at the front line at Telamon,..so I tried them at the front line in some battles,..and they really amazed me.

What are yours,Visarion?(I would bet that it's the daoi elite)

[Silhouette]

Corinthian Hoplites

[Jingles]

Eburones Warriors.

They look good, they perform well, and the history behind those dudes is incorrigibly badass.

[Sharpe]

Traikian Rhomphaiophoroi, arguably the best assault infantry in the game.

[Visarion]

My favorite units are Thracian Elite Rhomphaiophoroi, Daoi Elite Infantry, Dacian Elite Falxmen and Bastarnae Elite Infantry because I helped in their development...

[Gaius Marius Maximus]

My Favorite Units are The Saka Noble Cavalery from Parthia compagne they have a powerful charge also i try in custom battles The Numedian cavalry superb skermisher ^^

[|Sith|Galvanized Iron]

Bear Warriors or Falarica Infantry I believe

[Limskj]

The Flavia Felix Legion!! I love the name and the shield design.

[TuCoT]

Parthian Horse Archers. Yes, they're my favourite unit in all RS II units. They're swift, agile. What could I want more!

[Roboute Guilliman]

Promachoi Elite Hoplites.

Why? Gorgon shields, awesome outfit and they do a good job holding lines. Maybe only thing I hate about them is their pricetag.

Me too, but now after kicking some Athenian, Corinthian and Thebean ass, they are down to 150 men(badasses). How can I retrain or recruit new ones? Cant see them in the building browser.

[DarthLazy]

Balaeric Slingers because they rip everything apart aslong as you have archers in support

Parthian Catas bcoz they rock

Dacian Elite Falx, The unbreakables

[Roboute Guilliman]

I can recruit them in Sparta, you need tho the biggest barracks to have them.

[Medkirtys]

Bear and wolf warriors, they can hide, they frighten ppl, and they kill people. What else do you want?

[Visarion]

yes "can hide anywhere" is very good for ambushing! I like Dacians and Cimbri 'cause they are very fast and mobile! The best Blitzkrieg ever!

[Praetorian121]

Early Praetorian, why? Fight against them and you will find why, and they are look amazing.

[Visarion]

what about triarii!?

[torzsoktamas]

I also like the naked fanatics and naked spearmans(curently I'm playing a Cimbri campaign).Beside their willies,they look awesome,..they look big and strong.And ARE strong.In a battle against the belgae(which had some heavy swordsmans and heavy spearmans,..but mostly bellovaci infantry),I ordered 2 naked fanatics and 2 naked spearmans to charge the enemies centre.Two teutones heavy axemens(which are also badass) charged the flanks.Then I just micromanaged a cavalry unit at the flank,..and when I turned around to see what my units do,...I saw NOBODY!"I mean,..where the **** they gone"!Then I noticed that they were chasing the routing anamy FAR AWAY!

[Ian Altano]

Spartan promachoi all the way. Damn expensive, but damn bad-a ss.
I only have the one unit of promachoi you get at the start, but they're still alive and kicking (albeit slightly battered and chevroned).
And I've never lost a battle when they're holding my right flank!
