Re: Most Beloved Individual Units?
The humble Longdead Archer. Not terribly expensive to summon, demands no salary, needs no food, never flees, and frequently dooms the targets to imminent death even if they flee off the map.

Re: Most Beloved Individual Units?
At the humble end, the Ulm Crossbowman. What other highly effective range unit wears sufficient armor to stand up to a cavalry charge and only costs 10 gold?
At the higher end, I like nothing better then dropping 2 or 3 soul contracts on commanders at a quiet castle and swooping up a whole army of devils a few turns later.

Re: Most Beloved Individual Units?
Lava Warriors with Earh 9 blessing. They kill everything in front of them in no time, fatigue and set aflame those who accidentaly survive, get insane stats in high heat, and anything that hits them just makes them angry.
Fire 9 blessing also works great, but they really don't need the extra firepower, and I hate to lose them.
Runner up: Knights of the Unholy Sepulchre. Fairly fragile, but to exploit that units actually have to still stand after their initial charge. And with all the blessings you get as Ermor, it's not very likely that they will.
Yes, I hate all the wimpy "fay" types of units...

Re: Most Beloved Individual Units?
I'm a fan of high defense units.
Sidhe, battle vestals, serpent dancers...and of course the wonderful shadow vestals.
And also Knights of the Unholy Sepulchre with a blessing only ermor could afford like 9water/9fire/9astral or something absurd. It's great to watch them raised to an insane level of power.

Re: Most Beloved Individual Units?
Lower end, the super-cheap warriors for Mictlan. Not only can they die, they can also throw useless rocks with their slings! Of course, you throw about a hundred of them with a leveled up sun priest with that one spell . . . and there you go, the reason why I like them.
Higher end, Heliophageses. (Heliophagi?) They just look cool.

Re: Most Beloved Individual Units?
I really enjoy a lot of units. My elite Cave Drake who leads an elite team around on his flying carpet is a favorite. So is Henrik the indie priest who won the deathmatch tournament, and is now a middleweight melee supercombattant in full black steel plate. Arco priestesses are great to have, especially if you aren't Arco! Succubi are great when they're on your side. Mictlipoctli, before I accidentally burned him to cinders with my demonic heat aura... ooops. Dragons. Blood summons (the one with four arms). Way too many different kinds of units to have a single favorite. Many are beloved though.
