What you think, whichs the best?

Here's what i think:
1. Humvee is good to defend air strikes, but suck if vs army of rocketmen and heavy tanks. Moreover, they take more space.
2. Army of Rifles could elimate rocketmen, heavy gunners and does more dmg than humvee if they're in a team. But die if meet with tanks (even light ones)
3. Heavy gunners could tank the dmg of rocketmen and elimate them. they could defend air strikes also. Bad things are shorter range which is a 50 difference with the rifles, can be easily shot off by humvees and rifles.

How about ur opinions?:D

    I have both riflemen, and heavies lvl'd to max, but not Humvees.
    I like to use a few heavies behind my guns...works well.

    Well my Humvees are maxed out. So they're reasonably effective vs copters, and I know because I also have copters. I find that attacking high level RFs humvees with copters results in their Humvees being able to get in the first shots on my copters (and I use 12 copters)...however, used on their own they are just like any other unit...useless. I use mine in combos with other units, and I find my combos are effective. I'll take 2 maxed out Humvees vs a Rhino anyday. 2 will take up similar space to one tank, move faster, take less time to build, cheaper, and good vs air when maxed out to the top level, and you can place them either side of a tank to pincer them along with units that complement them. They are also good vs everything which other units are not.

    Totally agree
    5 full uprate humvees can only destroy single copter. this guy only deploy 17 copters.
    5 humvees take 300 space VS 17 copters take 595 space

    so assume that 10 humvees can take down 2 or 3 copters

    Yes, but whilst this is true, what else is good against air? Only 3 things(apart from turrets)...Heavy Gunners (easily destroyed by copters they die in seconds!!) Humvees and Hercs. Hercs do less damage than Humvies, they can't be unlocked until much later than Humvees, they are much more expensive, take longer to build they die quicker and have less range. Although hercs are effective at close range, I think the best options vs air apart from turrets are still Humvies and although they might still be weak vs a lot of high level copters, they are still better than anything else and so in my opinion the best out there for air, and since they are also good vs ground units of any type, they are therefore the most versatile option available and used in combination with other units/tactics should never be underestimated or criticised.

    There is none of the unit good against at the movement except gun turrets.

    I had a Roger guy always attack me 28 time with 30 copters and 8challenger. I only able to take down one copters
    I had:
    level 10 humvee
    level 3 hercule
    level 10 rifeman
    level 10 heavy gunner
    level 7 or 8 gun turret

    What do u think should i use?

    I try 10 humvee or 50 rifeman (not working)
    I'm currently using 27 heavy gunner

    @ Srinath. And I cam whack masses of machine Gunners with a few Copters. The point you all seem to miss is that EVERY unit has advantages and disadvantages vs another unit. It's no good saying "Unit X" wacks "unit y" because units are supposed to be used in combinations with other units depending on the base design and strategy.

    @ Duong Trung Ton-That. It's difficult to recommend anything that works vs air because you are right, turrets are best, humvees and hercs second best and nothing else works vs air apart from attacking back. I think the Copters need restricting, not in armour but maybe just a little in range or damage.

    None of your units can deal damage to the Challengers... Also, Hercules is an anti-air unit.

    yes i know thanks.
    Hercules is an anti-air unit, not to sure, he can take down raptor but not copters
    Right now I don't see any unit against copter or cobra
