I've never used Kamikaze units as Japan, are they effective, and is it worth the research? I always avoided the tech because it seems like a unit for a desperate attack against overwhelming odds that I'm never up against with the US.
I'd like to hear from others that have used them and how you use them.

Edit:

Also, Glider light armor? I noticed that the counter is darker, does that mean it cant perform on its own?

It's an optional add on and not a 'mandatory' one like 'Semper Fi' or the upcoming 'For the Motherland', so even if it's only $2 not everyone will have it.

To check out how 'good' stuff is: save your game, build the stuff, use it and see. :)
 
I have it though dont actually play it, didnt really like the setup of having special units, and special tech for countries. Personally I prefer the way that HOI3 does it with the Das Reich being just another Panzer division.
 
ICE mod also has many of these units. As in real life the kamikaze units are generally pretty poor. Yes they have a very high surface attack. But treat them like V1 and V2 weapons that are in the standard game. They will not turn around a losing game but are there for flavor and to represent historical units.
