The manual was made way before emperor's release, those ww people made some last minute changes without changing the manual with it.

lowzeewee · July 26, 2003

But the guild maker is a vechicle technically but literally an infantry.So it was meant to be an infantry. ;D

Apollyon · July 26, 2003

In the programming it's classed as a vehicle.

henry · July 26, 2003

the guild maker should be considered an infantry unit shouldnt it? if it was related to the frank herbert universe it used to be a guy before it became what it is

It says 'infantry' in the manual.

then it should be included in henrys options... for shame henry... for shame...

its an infantry unit as far as the story line goes buts programed as a tank i guess because a repair vehicle can repair it or was that the leech?

lowzeewee · July 27, 2003

Anyway,like your friend Geoffrey said,it's right I think.And you cannot quote him.Just remove author=[username] and just type

[your message][/qute] with an o added to /qu in [/qute] and then credit him at the end.

Thanks!

Guild makers have absolutely no mechanical parts involved. They are Guild Navigators who, while once men, were artificially evolved at a very fast rate through an overdose to melange.

Duncan_ghola · July 28, 2003

the leech doesnt have any mechanical parts either but its a tank

i read the manual the other day, and i looked up the guild maker it is an infantry unit after all like a assumed it says its a second stage navigator

ken124578 · August 4, 2003

Nope, it has everything a tank has, it's on the tank tab and it cannot slide over infantry rock.

I reckon all infantry are useful.

Atreides Light Infantry: Useful for covering against ligh raiders coming to take care of your minotaurus or mongoose attacks. Tend to die in droves.

Kindjal: Useful if in infantry rock and in mobs. Give sniper support.

Sniper: Good at level 3. I use them to cover enemy assault routes along with Kindjal.

Scout: Need I say more.

Harkonnen Light Infantry: Good for clogging up enemy assault routes. Die in droves.

Flamer: Good defensive unit if deployed in a line. Keep away from your other infantry units unless you want them roasted too.

Trooper: Good when put in infantry rock with support. Annoying if the AI uses them.

Chem Trooper: Good against vehicles, buildings and infantry. Most useful base class infantry I reckon.

AA Trooper: Essential as Ordos has no AA turrets. Good against vehicles.

Saboteur: Send them in with swarms of chem troopers. Or drop them in with EITS.

Engineers: Sneak em in in an APC and ADV Carryall.

Fremen Warrior: Deploy these guys with Fedaykin. Replace snipers with these guys.

Fedaykin: I use them as stealth commandos. Sneak into the enemies base and let rip with wierding modules. I haven't tried deploying them yet.

Sarduakar: Replace line infantry with these guys. Good against lots of stuff.

Sarduakar Elite: My fav commando unit. Take out haresters when they're with their carryalls.

Contaminator: Stick them with a lot of infantry. Very effective.

I can tell you all my tactics and stuff like that because I don't and can't play onine.

I would have to say my fav infantry is: Fedaykin

lowzeewee · August 4, 2003

Thank you for explaining everything for the people around here,desert ranger42. :)

I generally think we should consider the GM a vechicle because we are rating the infantry units based on their technical usefulness and the GM is technically like a vechicle.We are looking from the technical prospect of the infantry units. ;D

Duncan_ghola · August 4, 2003

but how is the GM technically a vehicle?

lowzeewee · August 4, 2003

Nope, it has everything a tank has, it's on the tank tab and it cannot slide over infantry rock.

In the programming it's classed as a vehicle.

I think they were only trying to implement the no-infantry-rock feature for the guild maker though they wanted it to be an infantry.So they had no choice but to call it a vechicle but they can't help it but watch us criticize it now... :P

Duncan_ghola · August 4, 2003

guess it is basicly a vehicle

lowzeewee · August 5, 2003

Yes.We are basing on its usefulness in the game so its supposed to be OUT of this list. >:(

darkd3th · August 7, 2003

u guys thinks its a vehicle? u can't over ride the manual guys .....its and inf

gerbilpoo · August 7, 2003

my fav inf is contaminator sure its uneffective weak useless but it is a good concept ;D

Duncan_ghola · August 7, 2003

darkd3th read the WHOLE discussion

lowzeewee · August 8, 2003

Read replies 37,41 and 43.They are the best answers to this motion on GM being a vechicle.

Apollyon · August 8, 2003

u guys thinks its a vehicle? u can't over ride the manual guys .....its and inf

So I guess the manual is also right when defining the NIAB tank as a slow moving, light armoured, fast firing vehicle? :P

lowzeewee · August 9, 2003

And the manual is right in its extolling and glorifying of the ordos turrets? ::)
