House_Corrino Posted January 18, 2002 Share Posted January 18, 2002 -las tanks rock for attacks-kobras rule at defense-AA troopers are hark troopers that make a slight sacrifice of firepower to gain speed and accuracy, a good trade-Deviators are great for harvester hunting-mortars are okay, but innacurate (I still prefer kindjals and snipers)-chem troops are very, very cost effective-AA troops are dest for AA (the most cost efficient)-the Ordos are better on Arrakis maps-las tanks kick ass against the harks.

Guest Lord Hsin Posted February 6, 2002 Share Posted February 6, 2002 I usually build a windtrap then a factory then a hangar and uprgrade the hangar. I make more buildings and at the same time, make 20 dust scouts and 5 lasertanks as well as three advanced carryalls. Since dust scouts take no time at all and the advanced carryalls can pick up heavy tanks, the enemy usually doesn't have a chance.PS- You can only do this if you start with 30000 cash!

Timenn Posted February 8, 2002 Share Posted February 8, 2002 Dust Scouts are the worst of the three (Bike, Dust Scout, Buzzsaw) light anti-infantery units. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Lord Hsin Posted February 10, 2002 Share Posted February 10, 2002 Dust Scouts kill infantry fast and take about half as long as a buzzsaw. Not to mention they're a whole lot faster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
House_Corrino Posted February 10, 2002 Share Posted February 10, 2002 Here's how I'd rank the 3 light vehicals:#1: buzzsaw (dual light cannons whereas the others only have 1; the only one that can "ram" infantry; immune to leech larvea)#2: dust scout (can hide in dust bowls)#3: sand bike (no special abilities, but the least expensive of the 3)-Remeber, they all have the same primary weapon: the light cannon (good vs. infantry, okay vs. light vehicals, bad vs. heavy vehicals) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

House_Corrino Posted February 10, 2002 Share Posted February 10, 2002 The buzzsaw is also the only one with 2 guns (as opposed to 1). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sardauker-Kirov Posted February 10, 2002 Share Posted February 10, 2002 gunner, If you taked out that Many units with 8 kobra's well the one that was your oponent must obviously a Newbie player or a Easy AI oponent. Taking out Cobra's is pretty easy with Assault tanks and Missile tanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
House_Corrino Posted February 11, 2002 Share Posted February 11, 2002 True. Â 1 on 1 an assault tank would whoop on a Kobra. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timenn Posted February 11, 2002 Share Posted February 11, 2002 Kobra's have a short reload-time but there bullets are inaffective against armor. Still they are great :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sardauker-Kirov Posted February 11, 2002 Share Posted February 11, 2002 True. But they still do damage against units. So its best to Move as close as possible to a kobra, So the Kobra will shoot the projectiles in the air, So you can dodge em Hehe  ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timenn Posted February 11, 2002 Share Posted February 11, 2002 Yes, but that shooting in air is handy when you want to fire over a cliff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
House_Corrino Posted February 12, 2002 Share Posted February 12, 2002 Kobras aren't great against armor, but at least they can hit armored units (unlike the pop-up turret). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
