Specific units and events
Al Qaeda
Jihadists: buildable, motivated and therefore buffed marines
Suicide Truck: expensive although with 12 att. and 15 crit. (!) a pretty useful unit

Houthi
Iranian Soldiers: 'as long as Saudi Arabia is in, we join', useful in defence, not really in attack.
Scud Missiles: very strong in attack, not in defence.

Saudi Arabia
RSAF Infantry: 'as long as Iran is in, we join', elite infantry, useful in defence either attack.
RSAF: very strong bombers, strong in attack as well in defence

Hints, recommended strategies and play guide
Saudi Arabia: no specific recommendation
Houthi North: main key is to hold trenches and expand slowly, IMP or PD
Houthi South: main key is to hold trenches and expand slowly, IMP or PD
Yemen West: try to make Houthi faction mad, IMP or GC (?)
Yemen East: don't lose East too quickly, IMP or PD
Al Qaeda: play like an annoying player, GW (highly recommended) or IMP

Suicide truck looks a bit useless. Decrease it's overall stats and cost maybe? A truck wouldn't cost twice as much as a tank and deal 50% more damage than one. So in order to make it realistic, you should make it weaker and cheaper. However, it should be costly in terms of reinforcements/manpower to build.
