The new worm is coming... tomorrow! Supposedly. There's already a unit guide up for it on mechamonarch
Contrary to my previous comment, the armor is actually decent against crawlers, they seemed to have changed their damage numbers between updates when I was away from the game. However, most players can just respond by upgrading impact drills on their crawlers, so the point sort of stands.
As for wasps, they need Extended Range to fight ground units, I would get that before ground specialization. Shield is also not that amazing on wasps, mustangs kill them anyway; but it can be good for flank missiles and paired with Overlord Mothership (Wasp-summon) tech. Aerial specialization is situationally good on them as well. Good loadout is Range-AirSpec-JumpDrive-Shield.
With the worm coming, I really wish they'd added a new chaff unit as well. Crawler and fang, with mustangs and wasps sort of counting... that's not enough. In comparison, how many giant units are there? More than enough. I'd love to see a fast single entity unit type that costs the same as crawlers and starts with a shield. Doesn't do much damage but soaks a bunch. Vulnerable to steel balls but not splash damage.
Indrid in that first 2v2 you really needed to pay more attention to your flanking wasps they were getting hit by missiles for 4 rounds that is a lot of recourses wasted considering all the tech put into them, and you said a few times you didn’t know how that area was going when their only job was to destroy the base of the enemy. The fact that the base wasn’t going down should’ve let you know something was happening to them. If you had purchased the jump drive I believe you could have won your side a lot more frequently
Crawlers are fast, but I've noticed you tend to deploy even your first wave of them really far back. Try putting your first line of crawlers a bit farther forward, so they can soak early shots for your heavier units. It's better to waste a few crawlers than a few sledgehammers or similar.
Mecha worms, innit?
First match you were losing your flanking wasps from the second round they were there. If you’d dropped the scorpion in with them it could have absorbed the missile or if it survived devastate the mustangs. Or you could have jump drives them back to the main line. And I would counter rhinos or heavy armour giants with steel balls.
Why do u not get typhoons, they are versatile and more durable than mustangs
