On this, go for completely destroying an attacking and threatening unit over a medic most times. Not only the sniper capable of dealin heavy damage, it costs more to create too, whereas the medic might be a long term sublime thread, but it can't kill you. Normally.

I'd second that. Go for the Sniper UNLESS:
- they can boost another Sniper
- they can heal a heavily damaged unit
- they can boost a unit in a way so that would annoy you a lot
- it's in your way to win the game next turn

It's usually easier for them to get a Medic back to the field (as said it's cheaper and has more movement) than to respawn a Sniper. Sometimes (see exceptions above) you want to go for the Medic though.
