Hi Everyone,
This is my first post...I am hoping to get some opinions on SP units. My next game is going to be the 22 person game and I will be playing as a Commitern country for the first time. I have used SP units in the past, and really like them because of their ability to get away from the enemy with their extra speed. But on a 22 person map, which i find typically ends around day 11 or 12...is it worth it to invest in SP units? Also, with Commitern, i noticed that they can't research SP AA until day 6. So is it worthwhile to invest in SP units if you can only use them for about 5 days before the game ends? Also, for people who think it is worthwhile to build SP units in this scenario, do you continue to upgrade the Non-SP units that you have (AA, Rocket Art and Artillary)? Seems expensive to do high levels of research on both the non-SP units and the SP units at the same time (for example, researching high levels of AA and SPAA at the same time). Any comments on this thread are appreciated, but I am hoping that there can be some explanation and depth behind some of the answers, to help me weigh the pros and cons of this. For example, I estimate that i could have approximately 18 extra non-SP units if I skip the SP research and just build non-SP units...is it worth giving away 18 extra units to have SP units?? If you think it is worth it, explain why. Thanks in advance.
