Most hated team?
Hi everyone,
I picked this game up over the weekend after it popped up in my TouchArcade app and must say, I'm hooked so far. I've never related to the strategy genre at all and have always avoided any game with a hex grid since my NES days. Always been an Action/Adventure/RPG man myself. So I must congratulate the developers for winning me over with such a well-executed game, where similar apps (you know which!) have previously failed! So, I was just wondering if any of you have a team you hate playing against the most? For me, it's the Feedback. I just find I have the hardest time playing against them! I think the units confuse me and their appearance is just a little more shall we say, intimidating, than their Scallywag and Adorable counterparts. Even their medic looks mean!
So yeah, I know those were mostly aesthetic gripes but in actuality they do end up affecting my concentration and therefore screw up my gameplan. Maybe i just don't come up against them enough and I'll get used to it at some point. But for now, I hate them, hehe. What about you guys? |

Adorables.
They are simply terrifying. Their heavies with their big, smoochy lips. And the snipers smile.....nightmares. EDIT: not that i hate them, they just scare me. Oh, and also I find the feedback maps slightly depressing. |

The feedback maps remind me of the real world in the matrix.

This may be a reminder that robots are not animals
Mobi looks like it does a little bit of pain with its horn. I have thought of this before. All soldiers have a trident. The feedback sniper used to have 2 eyes, but was changed to 1 to make it resemble the others more. Up for Friendliez! GCID: braytos |

RE: Most hated team?
I actually like playing the Feedback for exactly the points you listed, metalsquid.
In regards to Special Units, I think a well placed Bombshell is the most terrifying and can take a few turns to eliminate - on bigger maps, I would rather try to route my offensive around it. A Feedback Scrambler in the right moment jumping at your Heavy from out of sight is really bad, too. Mobi just looks too cute to instill fear ... until he unloads a Heavy or Sniper in front of your units. So, if your opponent knows to use them well, all Special Units have their "oh sh*t"-quality.

RE: Most hated team?
hehe, I do like the Bombshell very much as it's the only unit with AOE damage. I also like the Mobi/Sniper dynamic which is similar to using a Bombshell. You do 1 less damage and lose the AOE, but you don't have to wait a turn to fire after moving/shelling.
I've never come up against a Scrambler, but the reduction to 1 health on the converted makes it rather vulnerable. Seems like it would only be useful for that turn before it gets picked off by a runner? Can you heal converted units with your own medics? |

RE: Most hated team?
The best way to learn a team is to play them - get a few games going with feedback and the confusion will soon disappear.
Haven't had too many run-ins with specials as yet, but I have been scrambled on occasion which can be very annoying. |

Without this reduction to 1 HP, the Scrambler is very overpowered. I am in no way affiliated with or authorized by One Man Left Studios, LLC.

Ahh, ok. So it would be a good idea to follow the Scrambler around with a medic to buff converted units immediately.
Are there any vids of a Scrambler in action? What happens if you brainwash a Mobi, do you get control of its teleport ability or does it just turn into another Scrambler? |

Firstly, could we please stop calling 'replays' 'videos' and start calling them 'replays'? Because that's what they are. And yes, you can brainwash enemy Special Units and use their abilities just as if you'd built them. Note of interest: if you were very lucky in a 2v2 against Scallywags and Adorables and converted both their Special Units, you could teleport a shelled Bombshell with a Mobi.
