What is the most terrifying RTS game unit to be up against? (self.gaming)

My vote is monk from age of empires 2. These dudes can walk up and stare at your friend chanting for a bit, then suddenly they turn around and attack you. That's horrifying.

TA is just a gem. I like how the base game is pretty moderate unit-wise. And then they just said "fuck it" and added whatever cool shot they (probably always) wanted.

And the soundtrack kicks ass, "March unto death" being my favorite.

I always felt like the arm got the short end in the expansion. they just never got anything to parallel the krogoth.

their static artillery being shorter range also always hurt them in my vs cpu games. though the vulcan was pretty awesome of you could somehow generate enough energy to sustain its RoF.
