Regarding units, the basic Assault seems by far the best. MC into Sniper with all of mine, but I could see a point in going heavy with 1 perhaps.

I only got the special unit from the Disciples of Anu, the Berserker and it’s a melee unit, pretty limited. Details here:

Melee, an axe or a spear seems like it would be a very good way to combat crabmen. And shields, given the number of them being dropped by those crabmen, seem like an obvious thing for a PP soldier to look at and think ‘hmm, that look like a good way to not get shot.’
