I'm a bit a lurker, but I'm surprised no one has really talked about the new blue hawk unit yet. It's one of the most unique unit designs I've seen in the game (or most other rpg's for that matter) and I thought i'd share.
It's actually t2. They fire at a radius of around a pelter and have damage close to a pelter as well. They are actually very VERY useful when combined with slammers in the front. Also, the animations are a little weird, and the missile department doesn't open up when the missile is fired.
T2 Missile Bot Here's one in combat: They look great. Glad we've already got so much diversification in the bot skeletons.
Oh alright, it was T1 in PTE I think, because at that time it replaced the AA bot. The AA bot is back, right?
No, it was T2 in PTE as well, even when it used the T1 AA bot's model. And no, the T1 AA bot is not back.
Ah was it, I didn't actually pay attention, anyway, no more AA, still? Striking resemblance actually...
I don't really rate them right now. They don't actually attack things unless you issue an attack move, which usually means they walk straight into range of other units instead of stopping at max range.
