This isn't necessarily a problem as they're previous age units and there's any number of units you could say this about in reference to what units came before them (AAVs, Stealth Tanks, Hover Tanks to name a few). Ronin beat all previous age units other than turturrets fairly well. Pretty much - Ronin might still stay top dog for the age, but that'll be the fault of other units primarily if so. Aside from potentially hovers (which will likely suffer more losses and a higher risk of just outright defeat due to their reliance on terrain for stealth), can that be done with any other unit? I'd say they're pretty imbalanced. You can reliably auto-fight your way all the way up to GE4 using nothing but Ronins. With one or maybe two units out there capable of bringing a Ronin down in two shots, that means pretty much every unit is in an unfavorable matchup against them especially when you're the one controlling them and the opponent is subject to the AI. Most armies are mixed, and these 'jack of all trades' armies are easily handled by Ronins on a level that's pretty unmatched by other units as there isn't a significant enough representation of anything to capitalize on a Ronin's supposed weaknesses whereas pretty much everything falls in two attacks from one except for units with Reactive Armor and other Ronins. However, against 8 Turtles you're obviously not going to be using Ronins and the majority of armies you face aren't that one-dimensional anyway. Nah, if you're the one attacking with Ronins, you can keep them spread out to mitigate the effects of Mortar which significantly reduces their threat after the initial salvo.
