I don't think it was so much the content of your post that was wrong it was more the type of discussion. Agressive negativity can get people backs up and results in flaming wars.

You may passionatly think that something is worong but just keeping it civil heps to get your point across.

Also it is very hard to judge the type of post when it is simply written down. You maybe trying to emphasie your point but alot of the good work can be undone by agressive posting that was probably not even intentional.

However - you did make a very good point and to get back on topic -

Perhaps the COST of the unit in a custom battle (to take account of any upgrades) could be the way to judge the value of the units. I know that some units are overpriced and hence over valued, but as a even way to determine an empires military value it could work?

Thoughts?
