[Awakening of the Rebellion] best Rebel land battle units?

[crested_yeti]

I'm not really a fan of the land combat, but know that auto-resolving them is a killer in units/cost. Anyone have any recommendations for the best combination of units for successful land combats- specifically taking over planets.

Anti infantry vehicles and tanks for their armored

I personally find that the most cost-effective way to do it uses artillery as its core feature. You'll want a heavy factory to make those. The game plan is thus:
1. Use whatever units you happen to have on hand to hold off any initial attack.
2. Bring down some infantry, and build a sensor node.
3. Bring down artillery. Use your other units to defend it.
4. Slowly bombard the enemy forces into submission, building additional sensor nodes or advancing as appropriate.

This doesn't work in some rare cases (if there are no turret spots or if the enemy has a shield generator, for instance) but for the most part, it makes for a cost-effective win. It works for the Empire too, although with those brute force works better due to the AT-ATs. That being said, it's also a boring way to fight - a lot of fast-forwarding and waiting, so if you don't want to go through that kind of thing, the AAC hovertanks also make for good attack units.

T3-B's-T4-B's and the MPTL-T3-HA is an overpowered combination, I took out a black sun base with 3 outposts, a shield generator and turbolaser defenses with only 2 T4-B's and 3 MTPL's, if that doesnt work, another overpowered combination is the sabetours/infiltrators, use them in groups of 6-10, and they will be almost unstoppable, their real weakness is the AT-AA or mines, wich will completly obliterate the group in an instant, I did once a raid, where a single mine took out 70-80% of my infiltrator group, A SINGLE MINE. however, you cant split them either, since alone they are litteraly as weak as regular infantry,.
