I think you missed the point, cazgotsaved. We are talking about generic units here... Not about a particular unit you played with for hours without end.

I too was pretty pissed when I lost Chrono in Chrono Trigger the first time around...

In games like freedom fighters and other squad based games, whenever one of the generic units dies my fist thought is usually "Damn, now I have to pick up the slack"

Ok.. so I guess, I did a horrible explanation...

[Pipster]

Actually yeah, I tend to preserve my soldiers and avoid them getting unnescarily killed in games like AOE1-3

Partly because I need them for later, and partly because I don't enjoy the 'needless' slaughter of my pixelated men.

A little different point of view.

noone likes when his unit dies - if you are a general during a real war or if you are a strategy games player. It can make me sad, when i send my army to a battle and they all die. It makes me sad, because I didn't won and I will have to use more of my resources to keep up with my military strenght.

In RTS games I bother less, but in games like HoMM or Disciples - nearly every unit counts, and can make you victory harder if you lose your troops

Sometimes I get like "NOOO!!! "..

Like that one time in C&C Generals Zero Hour, I had a little troop of marines that infiltrated an enemy but they got slayed by a minigun tank, I got angry and sent my 30 F22 Raptors to bombard the base.. Why didnt I do that in the first place! :wallbash:

But most of the time, I dont care. As said its just "some" lines of code and pixels.
