CypressX15 Posted June 8, 2002 Share Posted June 8, 2002 I'm Defending a base agains the Harkonnen and Tleilaxu on a medium lvl Campaign, the problem is i just took this base about 2 fights ago, an hour and a half battle, and the game saves what spice was harvested and what not in the previous battle, so theres almost no spice on the ground, and i mean almost none, prolly within the 5-6k area. I figured i would have to try an atreides rush, which i know so far is near impossible against this computer, anyone got any ideas to help me?

Timenn Posted June 9, 2002 Share Posted June 9, 2002 Then you must build some quick units to hunt the wrecked vehicles on the map, and destroy them and get those crates. And make a quick beginning rush to destroy the Harkonnen, before they even have build their Factory. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edric O Posted June 9, 2002 Share Posted June 9, 2002 Just engi rush him! Build an APC ASAP, then fill it with 3 engis and capture him con yard, barracks and factory (or if you do it fast enough he won't even have a factory yet) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raven3563 Posted June 11, 2002 Share Posted June 11, 2002 Look around for infiltrators, on some maps you can find them lying around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timenn Posted June 11, 2002 Share Posted June 11, 2002 You can also win when you have more reinforcements then the other. Especially cause you build up, and the AI doesn't do that that much Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vidiware Posted June 26, 2002 Share Posted June 26, 2002 If you have played and conquered almost the whole dune... ull start with so big army that its just to rush poor computer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gunseng_Harkonnen Posted June 26, 2002 Share Posted June 26, 2002 In defence, if you have some beginning units, you can "rush" with them at the beginning. Sometimes I had one unit and go with it and destroy "base", cos it wasn`t base yet.But enemy should have spice problems too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Desert_Eagle25 Posted June 27, 2002 Share Posted June 27, 2002 and if ur spice income eventually dies u gain spice every minute or so from the great convention or sumthing.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timenn Posted June 28, 2002 Share Posted June 28, 2002 ? I haven't seen that before. I usually stay with my' insufficient funds' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gunseng_Harkonnen Posted June 28, 2002 Share Posted June 28, 2002 Yestarday I played on such map and spice finished. And nothing happened, all harvesters just stay in base and I haven`t nothing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timenn Posted June 28, 2002 Share Posted June 28, 2002 You mean you didn't got reinforcements of money? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gunseng_Harkonnen Posted June 28, 2002 Share Posted June 28, 2002 I am talking about spice. Money we have only on Caladan, Giedi and Drakonis, right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Desert_Eagle25 Posted June 28, 2002 Share Posted June 28, 2002 on any map, u consistantly get money for eery period of time u dont get ne cash inflow. but on Caladan,Draconis VI,and Geidi Prime maps the cash consistancy is faster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timenn Posted June 28, 2002 Share Posted June 28, 2002 Well, there is no difference between spice and money in Emperor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Desert_Eagle25 Posted June 28, 2002 Share Posted June 28, 2002 ok, no diff with spice and money.....ok... ??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timenn Posted June 28, 2002 Share Posted June 28, 2002 Well, you just get money when you have harvested, the game doesn't care that it is called Spice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Desert_Eagle25 Posted June 28, 2002 Share Posted June 28, 2002 oh..yeah..thats just the 'title' of the money...like them crystals of SC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gunseng_Harkonnen Posted June 28, 2002 Share Posted June 28, 2002 It became a little messy. ;)Facts: on Arrakis we have money when we harvesting but if spice will when I was playing, I hadn`t money reinforcements and both enemy and I had to rely on units we have already made. On other planets we have reinforcements all the time cos we don`t have harvesters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Desert_Eagle25 Posted June 28, 2002 Share Posted June 28, 2002 thats strange...i'e had money reinforcements on arrakis before..hmmm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
