What faction do you prefer?
Also: What is your favourite unit?
Vampires are my favourite units. If you have ever seen a full air force of vampires stasis draining an army of hawks, you'll know what I'm talking about.
-
UNSC ODST but all I really want is a dam sequel
-
Both. Dropping ODSTs as the UNSC is just awesome. However, building the Scarab Engineer combo as the Covies is also really fun.
-
.... ODSTs and Mac blasts. It's annoying to play against but fun as hell to use. I also am guilty of building the super scarab. 1 scarab and 20 engineers
-
I prefer playing as the Covenant. My favourite unit is the Wraith. They pown Grizzlies if you know how to use them.
-
Scarab
-
If only flood was an option I'd love to make those brutes.
-
I like the Prophet and Anders equally. My favorite unit would have to be Prophet, unless you don't count him in which case I would say Wolverines. Also, I'd cryo bomb your vampires! :P
-
UNSC. Dem ODSTs man.
-
UNSC. Flamethrowers are my favorite unit. They have the best dialog in the game. If only they had a medic upgrade too.
-
I gotta love my Hunter-Vampire army led by Regret and supported by a Scarab and a few Engineers. Once you get Hunters and Vampires fully upgraded, there's not a lot that can overcome that combo. Honestly though, I enjoy playing all UNSC leaders too. I'm not a big Arbiter or Chieftain fan for some reason, despite knowing how effective they are in the early-game rush.
-
Cutter UNSC. 'Dem ODSTs. Drop pods... Unstoppable.
-
Covenant. My favorite units are Jackals.
-
During the Community Carnage Halo Wars games today, I didn't see a single person use a Covenant character except for the AI once. :P
-
I take what I said back about my favorite unit being the engineer. The Ultimate Halo Wars unit is the 13 star elephant.
-
I preferred humans, because dropping ODSTs in was fun. My favorite unit was a fully upgraded tank with a Spartan driving it. They were all but invincible. Three of those, alongside those bigass gunship things, end the game early.
-
There's something about getting a legion of 51 Brutes and using the Rocket ability to launch all of them across the map; surrounding a scarab and taking it out in seconds without casualties that's so much fun. Gotta go with the covies on this one.
-
Brute Chieftain. All you do is build temple and then resources, sent the chieftain into all the neutral bases to destroy them and then capture them or let your team get them. Easy early points AND quick bases. Plus, with all the resources you gather building the warehouses, you can fully upgrade the locust, get 6 of them and destroy even more bases or spam them at the enemy and rack up enough resources to get a scarab as well. Then get the followers tech to increase population by 10 and you can get an army of: 1 Scarab 1 Chieftain 10 Locusts The scarab plus the 10 locust special attack on a building destroys those things SO quickly it's not even funny. The only problem with this tactic is locusts are weak attackers and get killed easy so you need to get your team or the scarab to protect them.
-
Got to say, I love the Grizzlies and Vultures.
-
Cobra. Lock in front of enemy base with wolverines, disruption bomb, bye bye base.
-
Edited by JLx24: 7/8/2013 1:10:12 AMRandom All master race. Favorite Unit: Engineer
-
I love using both. But UNSC might be my preferred faction. For fav units for UNSC are ODST, Spartan, Cobra's, Vultures (even though their hp suck) and Hawx. For Covey it's Jackals, Brutes, Elite Honor Guards, Engineers, Brute Chieftain, Prophet, Locust and of course The Scarab
-
Covenant but only for the Scarab rainbow love beams.
-
Should being a Starcraft fan influence whether I should get this game?
-
ODSTs and MAC rounds all day long
-
UNSC Vultures. They're so badass.
-
ODST!
