And I actually dislike the dvar machines a lot (except the glorious artillery).

Their melee purifier fills in a needed role early game and the mods cover their weaknesses very well.ĭvar / Promethean too. Shakarn / Promethean are great dragon goodness. (If you've never played with a late-game Promethean stack all armed with Phoenix Bomb Launchers you owe it to yourself to try it at least once) Bow-wielding purifiers are great and Amazon bow units also get their range increase for Plasma and Phoenix Bombs. Use Upload AC Data to hack the cooldown on the Strike Missile ability (it costs 0AP) and spam rockets for an insane alpha strike. It's solid in general because vangaurd has so many mechanical units, but the dream combo is to get a Vanguard Walker supported by a few Network Links. They eventually scale into unstoppable superbugs, especially once they are backed up by a Habringer. Kir'ko in general are quite fun when you build around defensive mods and psionic buffs.Syndicate is probably my favorite faction, I love the aesthetic and most techs work well with it.I like almost all of the other factions and techs, they all have something interesting to build around. (If anyone has some tips I'd love to hear them) Dimensional instability doesn't really seem strong enough to build around and aside from the Phasewalk modulator their mods don't seem that great.

There's also Voidtech, which I want to like but I don't really get how to make it work.

(Not that I think it's weak, I just find it unappealing) The only tech I really don't like is Xenoplague.
