My major gripe with Emperor: Battle for Dune

[Guest wtf?]

The replicators are so lame. I just played it at a LAN, and we made a pact not to chose house IX because people would replicate hundreds of artillary, and defend them well within the base where enemy fast units can't just run in to kill them.... things are replicated so fast its almost not worth killing replicas becasue they will come back so fast... it is really annoying! What is a good strategy against this? Its just pure lameness. I've seen someone attack the computer with 500 devistator replicas (produced after about 30 seconds of cloning, and using no money). After selecting them all, and clicking on the enemy base, the resulting lag as all the lines were calculated/drawn to the screen would have lagged anyone out.

So what can stop the replicator's seemingly limitless power?

Just have scouts placed throughout the map, they make them "disappear" pretty quickly. :)

Replicates are only as good as how you use them. It really depends on the situaction.

[kingzeus]

Yep, scouts are great for making replicated units disappear :)

I've noticed references to Star Craft popping up. Does this remind anyone of the High Templar's Hallucination?

[mungers]

Yep, scouts work well..... or you can destroy the actual IX Projector, that destroys all projections. :D

Try cloning Laser tanks, their speed prevents them from being hit easily, so you do get quite a few kills (requires lotsa babysitting), that is if theres no scouts.
