I think this is a fun thread to do every now and again. But what units do you think are most hit and miss that you use? What unit do you bring out and half the time it is totally useless, but for some reason you can't stop putting them in your companies?
This unit for me has got to be the croc. Sometimes I can roll a croc tank up and just totally wreck a mass of infantry and support weapons easily getting 10 kills in a roll. Other times my croc totally fails to get more than a few kills and sometime it's because i managed to crush something.
I think it has to do something with its targeting or something, instead of just shooting sometimes it will move back and forth unable to pick a target, instead of just firing at what ever is in front of it. Either way, the times a croc does me good it is totally worth it, a couple of times I've gotten them to vet 2 in one game.

Fireflies, I keep hearing that they are the best At Tank ever, and it can get some nice long range shots, but it cannot kill a tank for the love of god. I've seen an IST get critt'd 4 times with Weapon Destroyed, Engine Damaged, Engine Destroyed and then Immobilized all by my Fireflies and then Malgoroths M10 came up and killed it within seconds even though I was constantly hitting it.

Snipers.
Either they win a game on their own, or they lose the game on their own.

Crocs. They are the most useless unit that you can buy and it cant even kill Inf well. AVRE FTW!

Stormtroopres. sometimes they're the terror of the battlefield, other times a huge waste of resources

Dafuq man, don't ask for proof if you'll refuse it if it's not in your favor, logic fallacy for the bloody win.

Hotchkiss stuka. Being such inaccurate and without burning rounds t3 and only 4 rockets if you do hit something than the EIR gods must have blessed you.

I can vouch fighting against hotchkiss stuka, there are times where they are just doing tons of damage, taking out mgs/atgs/mortars, then raping infantry with its gun and sometimes light vehicles even.
smoke barrage + croc = win... but I'm sure smoke barrage with avre = even more win haha.

Agreed with Mysthalin about Snipers. Definitely a hit or miss unit that can impact the end result on their own. Crocs are frustrating more than anything else, they can sit in front of inf for a minute and get 3 kills, or can gib a squad in 4 seconds, it's all down to luck there!

Hummels: They either fire really well and accurate or they miss everything in its barrage.

Every single unit in coh/eir is a hit or miss unit. It all depends on how you use it and how much luck you have on your side. Spamming something can increase the ratio of hits to misses, but you'll never find a unit that is totally rape all of the time. If you do, it probably means that unit is broken and needs balancing.
