e^e

thanks all for replying MrFibble, Timmen : It turned out the area where the base was greyed out by only a bit (no black cloud over it), so i assumed it was already explored. I passed the mission :), btw the hawk strike works now, once i got enough power. DelugeD: Do you know how to enter an already setup game ? I often connect to the server and see ppl in buddy list, but no game. BTW campain game on medium is not that bad :D.

Hi everybody So i got this game 2 weeks ago, and been playing the atreides campain and i've gone quite a bit into other houses territory. Can you help a newbie some questions ? 1. Now in one of the missions i have to defend against the ordos and Tleilaxu. The problem is there's no enemy base to destroy this time, and I have just been defending the base( the enemy troops come out of nowhere, i can see their harvesters and carryls too, but no base), what is suppose to happen exactly ? been waiting for a while now. 2. How do i use Hawk strike ? I've built a atradies palace, but the hawk strike icon is greyed out with 'on hold' marked on it. clicking does nothing 3. What's this "T is -4 , T is -3, T is -2", that shows up in upper left corner ? Thanks

thnx for reply. I managed to get into RA's server by just entering login/password like you said. My nick is e^e. Hope to see you online.

Hello :) Sorry for the newbie question, first time poster. How exactly do i connect to RA/XWIS servers ? I tried the xwis tool and set it to ra server by default and checked host file to read : 72.17.137.93 servserv.westwood.com but now i launch EBFD, go to multiplay but it still directs me to WOL login. Is it supposed to connect directly to the server upon game launch or i should get a login name/password like WOL? I tried WOL registration but havent got an email yet. BTW the test option in the xwis tool doesn't seem to work for me. thnx
