Moreover the less powerful your team the more important to understand the relative strength of each elite unit. In my experience it is close to impossible (or irrelevant) to deploy all elite units you like. In conquests we simply don't have time for it, because our resources are spent mostly on Paratroopers and light infantry. I can't recall when I deployed more than 6-7 units last time. When we have enough money, industry and technology the game is usually over anyway.
In campaigns we usually have limited resources and are practically bound to work with what we have. If we can deploy 5 elite units there - it is a notable achievement of its own. In Defence missions there is usually a conflict of interests between building forts and hiring units.
So, an understanding of how elite units may help in this or that particular situation is very useful and has obvious practical consequences.

What if the terrorists receive unique units in collaboration with Metal Slug? I mean the land ship would be a very appropriate and serious unit XD, what advantage could it have? that is affected by sea and land/tank skills

Question....
Can the Typhoon counterattack?
Just wondering as this would help in choosing who to deploy on it.
It wouldnt need a commander with Navy stars, if it can't...
And , if not, then my Rundstedt, with 5 Air stars, Air Leader skill, and a switch from economy to carpet bombing, would make him a viable candidate.

 Finally, I maxed out medic this morning after having saved a lot of medals. The next target to max out is Stuka zu Fuss. |

So there is a Not avaible Button for next upgrade Stage, which means a lvl increase in future updates is possible.

Elite Unit Mi-24 Hind.
Mine is still locked but planning ahead, I am wondering which commander and skills would be best suited for it.
I believe it has been said that although it is an aircraft, it behaves as a land unit and therefore the deployed commander would benefit most from like skills.
This being said, it suggests that a skill like carpet bombing may not help when manning the Hind, as would be the case if Arnold were its pilot, but I am not certain. Explosives, if true, should help though.
Would Arnold be a good candidate for the Hind?
(Typhoon is another paradox as, in spite of it being a Naval unit, it behaves more as a Naval Air Station (NAS) where navy stars are not important. Here, carpet bombing should be beneficial and acts more like an Aircraft carrier, except with missiles)
Feedback needed please.

There is some error at least with Spitfire cost reduction perk; it gains gold perk already at lvl6, not 9.
Also Alpini gets sapper perk at lvl6, I don't think it was mentioned. BM21 gets marching perk at lvl6, too, as well as p40 fighter gets the very good "Flying Tigers Attack" -perk at lvl5 already. It increases morale of random friendly troop around the targeted enemy.
Also, most units get new/upgraded perks at lvls 5, 6 and 9. But I know that at least hawkeye and medic get new/upgraded perks at lvl7 too, so I was wondering if anyone here knows of such cases with other units. Lvl7-8 are hard to achieve on most units without buying fragments with medals, but knowing if there are surprise upgrades at lvl7-8 could make the difference whether its worth it or not to buy such units up to those levels.

For the helicopter, best general is actually Yamamoto for both f2p and p2w (if you want dmg, that is). Explosives, Air leader, Carpet bombing, Inspiration and Inferior Victory, 5 dmg skills, all work with it simultaneously. For more supportive/tactical approach, rumor and Inspection work too (and, surprisingly, Inspection actually works with its spraying ability, rumor does not though). As for Typhoon, it works literally same as carriers, aka air gen is needed for it despite being navy unit. And imo its likely the strongest elite unit in the whole game by now, as lvl1 is already ridiculously strong. In fact, you don't even need any higher than that. For general, while Sokolovsky has powerful nukes, he can barely do any dmg with the normal missiles and thus I wouldn't suggest using him. Just use any actual air gen instead. |

They work both for the unit itself and of course when launching air strikes with general assigned on Hind, yes.

Is it recommended to use medals to unlock the typhoon as soon as possible?
I have 4900 medals currently so I could maybe use them on the typhoon

I have 4900 medals currently so I could maybe use them on the typhoon Usually I don't think it is a brilliant idea to spend medals on fragments (especially for a f2p player) before your first team generals and a couple of backups are fully upgraded, but Typhoon is worth it, I think. Yet, just continue to save up until the next update is out. Quite likely there will be additional fragments as rewards here and there. Perhaps you don't need to spend 9000 medals then but significantly less. |
