What kind of unit are you? [My phone doesn't have a spear, sword, or axe emoji 😞]

Inspired by those other threads!

What kind of unit would you consider yourself? Why?
What kind of unit would you like to be? Why?

You can use units from any game or even units of measurement if you like!



Honestly I think I would be a troubadour. I'm a lover, not a fighter, and usually play healer in team games. While I've only ridden a horse once in my life I'm year of the horse so I'm riding a horse, dammit!

I'd like to be a dark flier though. Spears are my favorite melee weapon (are they considered melee?) and I'd like to strike down my foes with magic!

Well I always play tank or DPS. Favourite role of available is some sort of Paladin.

In FFXIV I played Paladin / Dark Knight. In Overwatch off-tanks like D.Va and Wrecking Ball were my go to in competitive mode. I was high diamond rank for many seasons but fiancée complained that I was gaming too much so I only play quick play now. My best DPS are Widowmaker and Tracer but I do well with others too like Pharah and Echo.

The first video is one of my old montages. More recent gameplay on my YouTube channel. My best stuff I don’t even bother to upload.

There was always something manly about paladins to me so I guess I'd go with that.

Myrmidon / Swordmaster

They are class incarnated, they base their kills on chance crits ;)

Also, coolest designs :






No heavy armor, just speed and big balls of steel ;p

Yeah fixed

Honestly luck and speed are my favorite stats in pretty much all games.

When I came into this thread, I assumed that you meant a "unit of measurement," lol.

I know nothing about the Fire Emblem franchise, so I can't really make a decision.

Will give as 3 answers [not based on fire emblem units as I don't get them, so I'll base it on middle ages stuff instead]:

If I would decide but for a person who was born in medieval times and had enough luck to be comparable to a west knights than most likely I would be part of Druzhina (early middle ages) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Druzhina , serving one of the first princes and kings of Poland.

If I would decide for a person born in those times but as average than most likely I'd be a casual soldier which means an average spearman. To be more specific spear + random shield + some knife/axe/hammer as secondary weapon.

If I would decide for myself as I am right now than most likely I would same as casual soldier but perhaps with a better quality armor, so I would have a better shield, helmet, armour, leg harness, arm harness, spear and mace/axe/sword. x)

You can choose a unit of measurement if you'd like!

(I'll reply to other people later, sorry folks I'm not ignoring you!)

Redguard for me. Though I had fun with an Orc too. I used to be on a Skyrim forum aswell. Another place where I became famous and totally forgot all about it.

Well in Skyrim I was a high elf with damage and healing magic + 2 handed weapons lol. Riding a horse is also important to me. That’s the only kind of experience I have with this.

@GenshinRosaria @Erg_Orgy I've never played a paladin in a video game before but I played a paladin once in D&D. Smited our asshole DM's lolita vampire to death on the first encounter with a nat 20. (No offense to @kuroava. I don't have any hate toward vampires in general, just that guy's)

@FacelessVixen @GenshinRosaria @_meimei I usually played a stealthy ranger with healing magic who joins the Assassin and thief guilds. Usually a male wood elf or Khajit.



@Zettaiken Neat! According to my dad and his parents we have Polish blood but I never learned much about the people or history. When I have time I'll have to look more into it.

@mirai hm... maybe. With the chonker added. But distance from the sun-chan is the only absolute unit to me.

@-kokomi- I like valkyries a lot, too. I also like the Val'kyr from World of Warcraft.

Now you’re making me want to share some of my FFXIV pics. Oh wait, I just remembered that I used some of the pics as thumbnails for my soundcloud tracks. If interested check the links on the left side of my profile for the soundcloud.

Correction :

I'm goddamn Frey in Shadow Dragon.

A sacrificial unit to use when the higher ups see fit.

I like bards a lot, too. I played a bard in D&D before and in Archage.

Have you ever seen The Gamers?

So somewhere deep down you want to be pure. Are you finally ready to be purified, witch? I would have thought that this would be more your bag:

I don't play games like this, but I guess I'm a celsius because I find weather measurements around the world very interesting, I always like reading the climate charts on wikipedia when I look up cities or countries.

I'm glad someone finally did a unit of measurement!

Happy birthday by the way!

I also like weather related stuff. My grandpa used to be a meteorologist for the US military.

I guess I'd prefer being a sage. But being a dragon or w/e a taguel is sounds interesting, too!
