Re: Pikemen, we laugh atchoo
I like the flavor of heavy infantry. That heavy armor can take some hits, and their morale keeps getting better after each battle (well, the non-battle-fright-wounded ones, at least.) But one matchup against R'lyeh or sniper-mages with Mind Blast and such will kill your commanders and they will look pretty stupid tromping around in all that gear. I just won my first game vs 5 AI's set on easy using heavy infantry, but I don't think I'll be trying that again. The compys don't seem to be that aggressive, even when I'm the biggest pretender on the block.
