Edric O Posted January 30, 2002 Posted January 30, 2002 Face it guys: The only way for Dune to win is if they used techs that are in the books but not in the game. (e.g. invulnerable shields)Otherwise, C&C would mop the floor with Emperor. Or (in Yuri's case) it could add Emperor's technological and biological distinctiveness to its own. ;D
nemafakei Posted January 30, 2002 Posted January 30, 2002 The only way for them to win outright, yes. Otherwise, the two sides are incomparable.
evilbaronatreides Posted January 30, 2002 Author Posted January 30, 2002 huh...i still think the units of Emp could give C&C a run for their money.
Sardauker-Kirov Posted January 30, 2002 Posted January 30, 2002 Your mind is weak! (Yuri)No your Brains is weak!(Harkonnen commander)Dont resist fate.. Your mind is weak!(Yuri)Im telling you g*d d*mned B*tch!!! Your weaaaak!!!(Harkonnen comannder)*Zergling, Zealot and Terran Marine Comes in* "Hello"*Yuri and Harkonnen Commander looks at each other.* " LETS GET EM!" *A Huge army of Hark's units Atreides ordos Sardauker fremen, Shai huluds emerge from the rocks screaming*
Condorswarm Posted February 2, 2002 Posted February 2, 2002 To be honest, I think RA2 could probably give Emporer a resonable run for its money.For these reasons:Allied Battle Fortress with snipers, and GGI's on the rockFor the skies:Harriers, Black Eagles, and Kirovs bombing everyone. Remeber the law of Atomics!Nukes, Weather Storms, Psychic Dominators,Chronospheres, Iron Cutains, Genetic MutatorsFor the sand: Snipers, GGI's, GI's, Initiates, Apocalypse tanks.And remeber, the defences:Prism Towers, Psychic Towers, Gattling Cannons, Grand Cannons, Spy Satilites, and not forgetting: Tank Bunkers.Let me now relate to Emporer, granted they have more practice on the sand, but, what if a battle was to take place on Earth? Only the Atredies and Ordos would be prepared then. Laser Tanks could probably be easily countered with Prism Tanks and Aopcalypses.The list for my view is endless.
nemafakei Posted February 2, 2002 Posted February 2, 2002 You misunderstand. These systems are incomparable - iwe do not know the numbers' significance in the other universe. We DO know that shields mean the Imperium is effectively invulnerable... provided they don't go near worms.
Sardauker-Kirov Posted February 2, 2002 Posted February 2, 2002 Thats right, Who knows how powerfull a Mino projectile is against a Sovjet tank or some other cheap Building :PThe Laser tanks could maybe be untouched by infantry or some other verhic's.Prism tanks are useless against heavy armored units as well in the game  8)
Condorswarm Posted February 2, 2002 Posted February 2, 2002 Ah, but I understand that Prism Tanks may be useless against most things, but they have their uses.Have you thought about the quickness and agility of the Harriers though eh? Or what about the Weather Controller? And what about Prism Towers, they are effectivly lasers as well as Tesla Coils and so would be good against Laser Tanks.
nemafakei Posted February 2, 2002 Posted February 2, 2002 They have to BE lasers in order to create the holtzman subatomic reaction. It doesn't work. Unless RA2 has a weapon travelling at less than 9cm/second, they don't have much that can affect anything shielded.
Ligic_Tha_Master Posted February 3, 2002 Posted February 3, 2002 "And what about Prism Towers, they are effectivly lasers as well as Tesla Coils and so would be good against Laser Tanks. "Condorswarm, the Prism Towers would destroy themselves...
Condorswarm Posted February 3, 2002 Posted February 3, 2002 Yes, but they would also destroy what it was attacking.Prism Towers with the Iron Curtain on would not do a kamakarze. That would be my plan.
Dunenewt Posted February 6, 2002 Posted February 6, 2002 Devastators would beat Apocalypses and Sonic Tanks would beat prisms
nampigai Posted February 6, 2002 Posted February 6, 2002 I haven't heard of the apocalypse an Ordos unit?
Ligic_Tha_Master Posted February 6, 2002 Posted February 6, 2002 That's because it ain't. It belongs to the soviet.
evilbaronatreides Posted February 9, 2002 Author Posted February 9, 2002 Wouldn't shield generators in a tank, begin to lose power after constant attack? Also, Sniper + Buzzsaws= Lots of mangled body parts.
Timenn Posted February 10, 2002 Posted February 10, 2002 There's no RA2 unit what can face the combination of Kindjals + Snipers (+ FlameTanks) And for the Kirov, when you see approach them, you have build many AA for then...
evilbaronatreides Posted February 10, 2002 Author Posted February 10, 2002 it would only take a couple of hark troopers.
Condorswarm Posted February 13, 2002 Posted February 13, 2002 What about Yuri's Psychic army? Better than any Ordos/Atredies/Harkonen army in my view, Yuri Prime + Masterminds + Yuri Clones + Viruses + Magnetrons + Gattling Tanks + Floating Discs. Then bring in Chrono Legionares for backup.
Sardauker-Kirov Posted February 13, 2002 Posted February 13, 2002 Well, You forget the Deviator of the Ordos, Yuri's units are only effective when they come in range like the brute. if they are taken out from distance, Like the Laser tank Sniper, Mino, The Psychic units will be toast.Yuri prime can be easily killed by Some ornihopter's or Harkonnen AD Platform
Condorswarm Posted February 14, 2002 Posted February 14, 2002 You seem to have conveniantly forgotten about both the Magnetro and Virus. Virus would take out sniper, Magnetron would incapacitate the Laser Tanks and Gattleing Tanks would bring down the Ornithopters.
Timenn Posted February 14, 2002 Posted February 14, 2002 Suddenly the Fremen attacks and..... ;D ;D ;D big boom!!! ;D ;D ;D
Condorswarm Posted February 14, 2002 Posted February 14, 2002 Suddenly Nukes + Weather Storms attack, big disaster.
