ordos45 Posted June 7, 2002 Share Posted June 7, 2002 You start out with a Fremen base at the top left. Sell it and move the units to defend your base. Build a refinery, then a factory. Then que 4 Mongeese. One will be built by the time the gunships arrive. They'll fight the Mongoose, by the time the mongoose is destroyed your harvester is back. The comp will attack your buildings and be unprepared when your new mongeese begin to destroy them. After that build a Fremen Camp or three for faster building. Upgrade it and the refinery. Build a second refinery and fully upgrade it. Use all the reinforcements you get to hold off any enemy attacks. by the time the devestator column is most of the way towards your base use the thirty-ish Fedaykin you have built to take them out. Now make sure guard mode is off the Fedaykin. Slowly move through the enemy base taking out only what you need until you reach the construction yard. Destroy it, the Factory, the Hangar, and the Barracks. Then take out the aa turrets. Use some air drones to knock out the three ADPs. Now airlift in some sonics, minos, and a mongoose or two. Congratulations, the Harkonnen Stronghold is yours. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr_Hangman Posted June 8, 2002 Share Posted June 8, 2002 I don't know why but when I did this mission the Harkonnen retreated! It was so easy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timenn Posted June 8, 2002 Share Posted June 8, 2002 They have no refineries. So when you survived the programmed attacks (not the AI ones) you can have the rest of your life. For completing it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DarkHydra Posted June 15, 2002 Share Posted June 15, 2002 They retreated too for me... I didn't like that, so i loaded an old save and did it again... just built 20 thopters and destroyed everything... windtraps first, so they had no AA :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sniper8080 Posted June 26, 2002 Share Posted June 26, 2002 Same here. I too loaded an old game and wiped them out with only a few Fedaykins. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CypressX15 Posted June 26, 2002 Share Posted June 26, 2002 sheesh, imagine if the hark stronghold was put into the hands of an advanced player online, that would be an impossible place to take out, or course, the ai sucks and i can't believe how easy that was.
