Scav. Without them you get nothing else.

Maulers... Ah. Most fun thing to play with on standard BZ2. Hilarious in DM with double Pulse Stab too.

Mauler for me. It's practically a melee unit which makes it unique in a way. Reminds me of the movie Aliens. Just wish it could pounce!

They can fly in the 1.2 patch, of course I doubt that was intended...

I absolutely hated that! The suckers are bad enough to control in 1.3, 1.2 was a nightmare for maulers.
Also, sentries and lancers can pretty much be written off..

As more of a strategist than a dogfighter I prefer archers.

The Lancer seems well suited to both offensive and defensive roles.

The most effective way to defeat archers when completely screwed (Shadowers anyone?) is to hop out. Archers are so weak that I don't know why scavs don't just trample them or suck them up with their vacuum hose.
Edit:
The lancer is well suited to being DEAD!
