Units that you hate/love, but are forced to use?

Of units mentioned in the first post I use but three

On regular basis, that is. Plus EGD, but you haven't specifically mentioned them.

Inquisitors - for my mage their rage-building ability is quite important, so I use them for 50-66% of game. They can be cloned with phantom, and I found that I more often used their Rage ability three times, instead of using Rage twice and Resurrection once. But after certain level they are not needed. If there were seven base slots...

Paladins - they are quintessential and it's easiest to fight some bosses with them. I don't like fighting bosses at all. I take them when I can. Oh, and they abide by the laws of coexistence when it comes to undead, I like it. I feel forced to use them sometimes though, that's why they may fit the hate-love relationship role.

Rune Mage - They Are Awesome. Archmage Skill For The Win. Zap Mooks To Death. And Clone, He He He.

I like to use Black Knights occasionally, but they are costly to heal. Their redeeming feature is their cool appearance.

Engineers I liked first, and used, but I prefer Alchemists, because they possess similar sturdiness but better effect-to-leadership ratio.

Verteran Orcs are the best. Counter-Attack every time. Love it.

I hate using those 5 Archmages (splitted in 5 stacks) , early in the game , to get Guardian Angel medal to lvl 3 in 16 battles.

or

Those 5 inquisitors (Splitted in 3 stacks ) to Exp the Pet Dragon , by abusing
Mana accelerator - Holy Anger - Phantom Spell .

Assassins useful? Has anyone actually put them to good use on no-loss scenarios?

I should probably take them off that list. I was hoping with the new buff, it would make them good, but... their "Servant of Death" "buff" is really the worst debuff / penalty in the world.

I can't haste them, I can't stone skin them. The only thing I can do is use Phantom on them and teleport. They are too darn slow to be really useful even for a Phantom run too!
