Pardon me for being late on the reply, I only noticed this now... Being a fellow Pinoy, I might be able to help...sort of... I remember playing Emperor during my 4th year high school days (S.Y. 2001-2002), but it was a year or so later (and with the installment of a graphics card) that I got to play Emperor on my PC. Maybe no one was talking about it because Counter-Strike was the reigning game back then (just like MMORPGs are the norm now), or maybe because it was too hard? But its 2005 now, and I'm not sure if there are still some PC game shops selling E:BFD. The last time I saw E:BFD on the shelf was like 2-3 years ago. I suggest checking out a certain PC game store in SM Centerpoint (aka: in Sta. Mesa, Manila...provided you're still here in the Philippines...), it was there that I saw an original copy of E:BFD. Of course, there's this certain alternative, but to say it will be against a certain forum rule here w/c abhors discussion of...such kind of stuff, w/c is that alternative I speak of... And yes, Fedaykins can ride worms. But to summon one takes time, though, so its better to use a number of Fedaykins to increase the chances of getting a worm...

*Currently drooling at the graphics and the Land Battle and Space Battle modes...*

*whistles* Sweet! Just wish that it can make its way to my place...

Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of The Sith Just wanna see how this arc comes full circle...

There seems to be more unit types in RA1 (More infantry types and vehicle types) than in RA2 (w/c is nothing but basic anti-armor, anti-vehicle, anti-infantry, etc... They made the units too basic...)...that's what I meant...

Hooboy...I totally dislike the cartoonyness of some of the units in RA2... I liked the serious overtones of RA1, but making a sequel with some outrageous units and balancing issues totally killed the fun in the RA storyline... I could've sworn there are more units 'fielded' in RA1 than RA2...

Damn, is it that bad? Anyway, a friend of mine told me of a place where I can play BFME and see for myself if its bad or not...

Hey guys, long time no see... Sorry to dredge this out of the void, but putting it back on topic, "LOTR: The Battle For Middle-Earth" has been out this past week or so (at least maybe in the US, but I don't know if they are beginning to sell copies outside America.) So now I'm wondering if anyone has played this already... Official site: http://www.eagames.com/official/lordoftherings/thebattleformiddleearth/us/home.jsp

Hey guys! Has anyone played the campaign mode of DoW? (C'mon, I'm definitely sure the game is not just for LAN enjoyment!) If so, is it Space Marines only or are there campaigns for the other races (Eldar, Ork, Chaos)? And somebody PLEASE, spoil the mission/s after the mission where you reinforce an outpost on another side of a long chasm, destroy a chapel gate to stop the opening of "the key" and you fight some traitor Imperial Guards. [hide]And a conversation about a thingee called the "Maledictum"...[/hide] Also, does anyone know sites w/c has a complete listing of all the units and structures in DoW?

So, strategies have been formulated... The rest of the story will be behind the spoiler codes... [hide]The Ordos have only one route for all their units on their way to invade your base. Hold that route and you can stem the attacks. In my case, I made a skirmish line of at least 24 Fremen Fedaykin (They can't fight an enemy they can't see, and those wierding modules of theirs are kick ass against their tanks and infantry unlucky enough to get close...) w/ ADP support a short time later... If you're fighting an insidious opponent...be more insidious... Then later, I focused on Dev dropping on certain areas and strategic airstrikes w/ Gunships, but I wasn't able to scout the enemy base's Palace, so I just used the Death Hand on defenses and stationary units for a while... But as soon as I found the palace, I launched the Death Hand there ASAP. I continued chipping away at their base and captured some structures (Con Yard and Factory), thanks to a staging area I made with another MCV I built... Attempted to capture the Great Hall, but the cursor automatically set on attack instead of capture, so I dropped Devastators between each of the pillars near the Great Hall and bombarded it to kingdom come. Victory is sweet... 8)[/hide] And if you fight against House Atreides, they have Fremen support...bad for your units...

Damn! I only built Minos and Mongooses in a 1:3 ratio w/ 2 Repair Vehicles in each battle group...

Old topic, but anyway: [hide]The Gunseng cinematic is more hilarious. "I'll have to contact you later Commander, when its A LITTLE LESS NOISY!" -Gunseng[/hide] I'm gonna watch that again for laughs...

Another alternative: Un-deploy your MCV, move it out of the radiated zone and have 2 Repair Vehicles on standby to repair the MCV. Saves a wee bit more money that way.

*Facefaults* You got about 4 snipers (3 elite), 9 Kindjal (6 elite) and 2 engineers inside the 3 APC's. Why the engineers? Basically anti-leech until you can get those repair vehicles up and running...

Massing Sards+Ordos Chaos Lightning=bad... Hmm...I'll keep those tips in mind the next time I invade Draconis IV... I guess I can start formulating strategies as House HK...
