People don't give grunts enough credit. They only look small in game due to MC being 7 feet tall: Grunts are really around gorilla sized and with a similar amount of muscle, in the novels they literally tear marines apart by hand. They are also one of the smartest covenant races, easily learning human languages, and most have exoskeletons which would protect from non-ballistic/energy weapon projectiles. They only reason they aren't OP as hell compared to most other franchises's cannon fodder or humans is their reliance on thier methane packs and being naturally cowardly/lazy.

I would also like to point out, the Grunts were so numerous, intelligent and skilled that when they rebelled (without weapons, they were not armed prior to the rebellion) they nearly broke the covenant and required the direct intervention of an Arbiter and the glassing of their homeworld to be brought down. Prior to the rebellion, they fought only with their fists.

I personally love the zerglings being a SCII Zerg main. I think the two most well known species are the Raptor and Swarmling the Raptor was a much better zergling being able to run much faster and jump insane distances. The Swarmling is not as "athletic" as the Raptor but they reproduce at an insane rate almost 10 seconds after they're eggs are layed it's ready to fight. When certain broods are evolved enough some zerglings gain the ability to live twice only slightly weaker the second time.

Before watching the video, here's my assessment of the factions involved; 1. Zerglings; Arguably the most iconic sci-fi entity when discussing "cannon fodder", the zerg rush is a tide of blades and teeth, no real disadvantages to be found imo. 2. B1 Battle Droids; Robots will always outweigh sentient soldiers in terms of being cheap and fast to produce, thus making an effective swarm, but they were never utilized to their full potential. 3. Ungoy; Fast reproduction and maturation makes them decent swarm troops, but again they were never utilized to their full potential. 4. Storm Troopers; Require massive infrastructure to recruit and train, impractical for any civilization that hasn't already won. Post-Watch Edit: I feel like the B1s as a concept were better than the Storm Troopers, but the execution is where they fall off. Storm Troopers had better armor, better gear and better training, making them individually more deadly combatants, and thus a better overall army; however, if the Empire had employed massed droids instead of human troops, they likely could've turned all that infinite money toward making a decent combat unit, something maybe halfway between a B1 and a B2 with a little bit of IG-1000 Magnaguard thrown in, and then churned them out by the billion per planet. Ultimately though, that would just be the mechanical equivalent of the zerglings, who are a decently powerful combat platform in their own right, which the Swarm then takes and spams out by the billion to literally run over anything in their path. In-game they're not that relevant, but lore-wise a zergling sea advancing toward you is reason enough to start praying xDD

Stargate very own Borg/Zerg/nids. They have overran the Asgard, utterly destroyed the main villains know as the system Lord's. just one "bug" variant about the size of a small dog killed everyone in a Russian submarine. Given enough material, one can become several thousand within a day. They will keep coming when they given a goal. Only thing show to damage or destroyed the simple bug variants are kinetic weapons, or special weapons design to kill them. "Human" variants are even more dangerous, as they are immune to ballistics, and are intelligence and even have their own personalities. One time there was hybrid cyborg created, but this was done only once on screen and such was probably rare.

star wars would be fucked so very hard. they basically use nothing but energy weapons in both as ground side weapons and in ship based weapons. their lack of innovative thinking, technical skill and improvement as tech in star wars has never really improved much other than getting bigger and sillier super weapons. and while star wars ships are massive that's also a problem as the would be easier to infest by a hand full of repliactor bugs. not to mention the infectiveness of internal scanners in star wars and the replicators own ability to hide form even from the most advanced scanners. though because of the star wars universe lack of technical innovation the replicators would Plato and stagnate very quickly as they cant really improve past what they eat. all that much. even the ancient made replicators never out did their creators tech. they just stat on their asses. and built and built a planet sized city. plus you wouldn't see that many human form replicators as they require very specialised resources. though that's both a boon and a down fall. a boon in that the replactors hordes would maintain a consuming hivemind mentality and remain highly effective as they wouldn't be distracted by human form Reps nonsense. but they would lack creative thinking and easily manipulated

Here are some of my ideas: 1.) *BODY* = Why not just upgrade their chassis with the body of a BX Command droid? I mean you could have an entire army of Athletic battle droids but nowhere as advanced as a standard Commando Droid. 2.) *TECH* = Give their photo-receptor eyes with multi-purpose scanning rays like thermal, X-ray, night vision. Also if one of them has a radar-backpack, upgrade it so they can call upon air support from nearby cruisers or starfighters. 3.) *WEAPONS* = The E-5 is shit in all levels of efficiency. So why not replace them with E-11 Blasters or the Rebel alliances A280 Blaster rifle. 4.) *CLOSE RANGED COMBAT* = How about a wrist attached Vibro-Blade for some high ranking officer droids? 5.) *ENVIRONMENT CAMOUFLAGE* = Stealth cloaking devices but when it started to rain, good luck with that. 6.) *COMPUTING* = I wanna replace their standard AI like a newborn clone trooper, meaning that they fight then the more they learn about everything the Galaxy might throw at them.

To be fair,the Zergling is so effective that they can grow into more specialised roles.A fully evolved zergling can go from being cannon fodder to being a strike team unit. In game,a zergling with +3 melee weapon upgrade,metabolic boost (large movement speed upgrade) and adrenal glands (large attack speed upgrade),they can potentially be the most damaging unit in starcraft 2 in relation to their cost,by far Which means you can use them for lightning fast attacks on undefended outposts,ripping apart even the biggest buildings in seconds and pulling back with no casualty,or you can put them behind a bigger unit,such as an Ultralisk to soak the hit for them,and let them lose on your enemy,due to their incredible speed and very high damage potential,they cannot be stopped before dealing some impressive damage unless the opponent has specialised weapons to deal with them. This is probably what makes them the best cannon fodder unit,they can be cannon fodder,but they also can be so much more both in combat and scouting roles,unlike cannon fodder like the B1 which is basically worthless

they are still the unit you send in early and often, to soak damage for your most expensive units - they cost as much or less than a worker to produce(dont remember if spawning a zergling is 50, 75 or 100 minerals for the pair offhand), and i dont think any other factions cannon fodder unit(marine, zealot) can take that 2v1 the zerglings throw down. they are also bioengineered by Abathur(who can somehow splice and modify genetic strands without technology) to be as cheap as possible without compromising their abilities

UNSC, at least in their prime, versus just about ANY ME faction other than the Reapers is a pretty ugly curbstomp. Remember that a standard UNSC Cruiser (Halcyon or Marathon) is at least a kilometer long, making them equivalent to a DREADNOUGHT in ME terms, and the UNSC has hundreds, if not thousands of cruisers, not to mention dozens or even hundreds of carriers and battleships that are even bigger, not to mention that UNSC MAC guns are generally an order of magnitude more powerful than Mass Effect railguns. Throw in superior FTL capability and far superior electronic warfare (thanks to AI), and the UNSC could really take on ALL of the Citadel Powers at once and still have a good chance of winning.

the UNSC in most ways would annihilate the alliance, the only thing i think the alliance has over post-war UNSC is numbers, and Prewar, their ships are more agile. on the ground, its a fairly close fight, but i might actually give that to the alliance, based on personal shields being on all soldiers, not just some super soldiers(not all spartan 3s even had energy shielded armor). in naval battles though, i see the UNSC ships as being able to take on the alliance ships in similar fashion to the Covenant ships taking on the UNSC fleets - if the alliance squeeks out a win, they lost way more ships than the UNSC, and won't hold that area long.

I... am not sure why you decided to make it a Howling Banshee Exarch of all things. A Howling Banshee would be fairer, but given the natural speed, agility, and flexibility of the Eldar plus Banshee training, plus banshee equipment (Power Swords, Banshee Mask /w sonic scream, and Shuriken Pistol) the Banshee is still *heavily* favored . The only scenarios where the Banshee actually loses are due to a stealth ambush from the Sangheili or Yautja, or death by nuke. In virtually all others, the Banshee dominates; Charge the enemy and reach them within seconds and cleave through them with a lightning fast blow from their power sword. Use Pistol and sonic scream as necessary to suppress the enemy while closing the distance.

@@nathanbrown8680 If you only look at the gameplay, it is understandable you could get that impression, but that is an incorrect view of things. The Khalai Zealots in particular are by far the second most elite infantry in the verse. The only thing that comes before them are Purifier Zealots, who are literally the exact same as them - thinking personality, with the experience and abilities of hundreds, if not thousands, of other warriors, which they have adapted for themselves - all stuffed into a hyper advanced Space Terminator body, which completely removes the mental destabilization factor, rather than it being greatly reduced. The only thing coming close to them would be Tal'Darim Zealots, but only because they are slightly larger as a subspecies and have a high psionic energy output. However skill and ability wise, the fact that the average Khalai can just download "Top 1K Best Warriors Throughout History" all encompassing documentary playlists in their brains completely dwarfs those of your average Tal'Darim. The Dark Templar, specifically those first few of them who also had the option to do that before severing themselves from the Khala, got nearly wiped out, predominantly in head to head engagements. In Talandar's quotes about Fenix, the guy manages to take out several Dark Templar Terrorists on his own. (Also possibly beats the shit out of some Yautja's.) You shouldn't underestimate a unity just because it is at the bottom of a tech tree in a game. Their training, ability to obtain experience from other warriors and traits of their species make the Khalai Zealot by far the most elite form of infantry unit that can also undertake various other roles in the StarCraft verse, second only to a literal Mechanical Murder Machine version of himself.

I think the warrior drone from Starship Troopers is also a good example. Excellent at swarming tactics, but the individual drones are still somewhat durable. As Carl says, shoot off a limb and it's still 83% combat effective. This means you either have to aim more carefully, or expend a lot more ammo just to kill one. We see in the movie that individual drones often take a lot of ammunition just to bring down. Like the zergling it manages to be cheap cannon fodder that is still quite effective, both individually and in great numbers.

I remember back when I first saw the different "personalities" in the battledroids in The Clone Wars and RotS, I personally had initially thought that it was some attempt of the CIS to try to make the droids a little more similar to the Clone Troopers and thus able to be a little more independent and able to better react to various situations rather than be restricted by only being able to act based on what is currently programmed into them. With Episode I, the battledroids didn't even try to use any cover. They would literally stand out in the middle of the open corridors of Naboo's Palace while battling Padme and her guards. Or when it came to battling the Gungans, it took SO long before the shield generator was destroyed and forcing them to retreat from the tanks, and even then, it seemed more like it was just a stray shot that happened to take it out and not a deliberate act by any battledroids.

Nah, you already know the Guardsmen of the Imperium are the best damn cannon fodder around. Yeah, sure they die a lot, but they do actually win from time to time, against all odds. The Emperor requires only that they die fighting the enemy, preferably shooting towards them. It helps to have a Commissar behind them, too. It does wonders for cowardice.
