Mordecai Posted January 10, 2002 Share Posted January 10, 2002 Yes: build up your base, and use deployed Kobras along cliff edges instead of turrets. Block off your entrances with double walls and deploy Kobras behind them. Keep some AA troopers in your base to counter against air attacks. Utilise speed: hit and run with deviators, then bring in laser tanks and massed dust scouts to support the deviated units. Continue to deviate, then flee if the battle is turning against you, outrunning the enemy.SUB-HOUSES: Ix and Fremen, because you can destroy whole enemy bases with infiltrators (con yard, then factory, starport and barracks), hit and run with fedaykin and fedaykin projections and generally do a hell of a lot of damage. USE STEALTH AND SPEED! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nemafakei Posted January 10, 2002 Share Posted January 10, 2002 Other than that, you'll have to give us specifics. And Sheep, go away if you have nothing useful to say. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ligic_Tha_Master Posted January 10, 2002 Share Posted January 10, 2002 Sheep must have an IQ of 1,35...Oh and FalcoWolf, there are just too many. Just read the Ordos threads. Well, some of them... :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gunner154 Posted January 11, 2002 Share Posted January 11, 2002 Ordos must be played with skill like the Harks. if u play like Atreides (the kiddy mino rush that always wins) wont get u anywhere.deployed kobras miss often.undeployed kobras NEVER miss.laser tanks never missapcs are good against Air unitsDust Scouts - get them hidden in dust bowlsdeviators should be used against slow units. dont take chances against a running sand bike. dont keep them near infantry either.EITS are expensive, powerful but useless against HarksAA Mines take Atreides down too easily, and the ADPs cant stand it too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gunner154 Posted January 11, 2002 Share Posted January 11, 2002 Ordos Kobras are good for defence. once my opponent used Harkonnen rush (assaults and missiles).i used easily 8 kobras and won. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FalcoWolf Posted January 11, 2002 Author Share Posted January 11, 2002 thx 4 the defense tips... how about attack and base building tips now plz :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ligic_Tha_Master Posted January 11, 2002 Share Posted January 11, 2002 For attack, ALWAYS, use deviators and las tanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ordos45 Posted January 11, 2002 Share Posted January 11, 2002 base building I build a factory and then worry about ym spice as I pump out kobras. Â I deploy the kobras alongt he rim of my base, after my first refinery is up build a second windtrap, then make a barracks and support your kobras with AA troopers due to arial attacks, then just sit back and build las tanks untill you have a ton and rush the enemy in a classic tank rush, works on comps most of the time.

Timenn Posted January 12, 2002 Share Posted January 12, 2002 for Defense:Put some Kobra's in a row by the entrances. And Deviators, for the slow units. Use there units to stop there own attack :)And you must have also al reserve-force of Laser-Tanks.for Attack:Laser-Tanks are good but pathetic against infantery, so send some anti-infantery with them (chem inf)And ally with the Sardaukar(is very soon possilble) a squad of 20 will crush any single unit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

House_Corrino Posted January 15, 2002 Share Posted January 15, 2002 NEVER USE POP-UP TURRETS!!! Â THEY SUCK!!! Â Kobras are way better for defense (they've got way better range). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
House_Corrino Posted January 15, 2002 Share Posted January 15, 2002 O ya, and don't forget to deviate enemy harvesters. Â After they bring their load of spice, make them stop near your kobras. Â Once they convert back to the enemy's side, they'll get blown up! Â This also gives them xperience toward veteracy levels. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ligic_Tha_Master Posted January 16, 2002 Share Posted January 16, 2002 NO EITS!!!! They cost too much. Though if you are like Bill Gates, then you should use 'em. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

House_Corrino Posted January 16, 2002 Share Posted January 16, 2002 I also suck as the Ordos. Â I'm good with them defensivly, and I can also destroy the enemy economy, but I can't attck effectively with them. Â Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duncan Posted January 17, 2002 Share Posted January 17, 2002 play with the ordos is need many skills because they aren Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
House_Corrino Posted January 17, 2002 Share Posted January 17, 2002 I think I'm starting to get the Ords more now. Â Always attack with las tanks (they kick ass against the harks!). Â Use hit-and-run tactics to lure units out of their bases to their doom. Â Either ambush them with kobras or use the las tank's speed and range to destroy them. Â Then walk into their base unopposed and clean up. Â I don't know how well this works against humans, but it works wonders against the stupid computer.

gunner154 Posted January 18, 2002 Share Posted January 18, 2002 all of u underestimate many Ordos unitsLaser tanks need lots of micromanagement, but letting them stand alone is good enough ;DDust scouts have one of the best Anti Infantry weaponsChemical Troopers rockAA Troopers are actually better than the hark trooperthe hark engineer is better than ordos engineer (despite the excellent speed)Ordos has the best scoutsMortarmen rule in anti infantry as well. sit them on lower ground and those pesky snipers cant reach em!when used with skill, the Saboteur is your most deadly weaponOrdos APCs are excellent AA, a MUST for every Ordos base defence, and sit them on your spice field tooKobras are deadly, deploy them when your opponent is attacking, my 8 kobras took out like 15 assault tanks and like 5-6 missile tanks when they attacked me onceEITS rush works at times, but never use against the harksAA Mines are awesome, send them to hunt down the ADPs that were so hard to killOrdos has the best advanced carryall with good speed and self-healinggunner154Commander of AllSeeker of Peace Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
