Thoughts on new terminator regen

It seems, after my one encounter with the new termies, that they are now extremely hard to force off. This was the idea of course, but I'm concerned its possible that given the extra attention they need the user can utilise the rest of his army's tools to clear you out with direct counters while the termies tank it out too effectively. Its not simply a case of 'less dps but more time' for me as I could usually handle the damage from the termies when trying to send them off and then focus on other threats. Now, although I receive less damage, it takes ages to force them off and then the other threats capitalise.

Naturally I will go do some more research but just curious as to what others' thoughts are so far.

I hope this opinion is sparked after more than one game. Regen. helps with sustained fighting, if this buff didn't help much for that purpose that the buff was null-in void.

So I like the buff since after a fight I don't need to have my termies walk into base to heal they can stay on the field instead.

It's not really my actually opinion yet I was just voicing a concern. I agree with you, it is necessary to keep termies on the field, but the buff also has the effect of making them extremely more tanky, and much more dps is required to bring their health down.
