Terror Posted March 3, 2002 Share Posted March 3, 2002 no... it's kinda weird i know.... but in dune2 atreides and ordos had both orni's.... in dune2000 only atreides had the orni air strike..... and in emperor only atreides and harkonnen have air like orni's....

House_Corrino Posted March 3, 2002 Share Posted March 3, 2002 It seemed like the AI only used ornies with the Atriedes, even though they were available to the Ords. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terror Posted March 3, 2002 Share Posted March 3, 2002 hmm.. when i fought ordos in mission 7 with either atreides or harkonnen i always had to fight orni's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sardauker-Kirov Posted March 3, 2002 Share Posted March 3, 2002 Whats so special about an Aircraft anyways?Next the Ordos is gonna fly a "Red baron"Im i right Edric :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gunseng_Harkonnen Posted March 4, 2002 Share Posted March 4, 2002 It`s easier destroying buildings with air units especially when it`s a lot of enemy vehicles in base Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sardauker-Kirov Posted March 4, 2002 Share Posted March 4, 2002 Aircraft rushes are always usefull. Its also much better then attacking with Ground forces. Harkonnen rules with the Gunship As always  ;D Although most of their units are underpowerd. Close range, Not much armor. less speed. They really need to Boost up the Harkies. *Ponders if the Designer's are Harkonnen/Ordos Haters.* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terror Posted March 4, 2002 Share Posted March 4, 2002 hmmm.... i don't agree with the harkonnen being underpowered thingy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sardauker-Kirov Posted March 4, 2002 Share Posted March 4, 2002 I supose you never played as Ordos or Harkonnen?Ordos Laser tank can easily out range the Harkonnen units and is more faster, Harkonnen are very strong. But still they are slow and has short range.They need more range and speed just like a real Harkonnen should be. After all they are a  Military House.

Gunseng_Harkonnen Posted March 5, 2002 Share Posted March 5, 2002 Harks should repair themselves like ordos do Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terror Posted March 5, 2002 Share Posted March 5, 2002 yeah they should get repair.... but harkonnen are not underpowered.... assault tanks combined with other units (missile tanks/flametanks/inkvines/buzzsaws) and any other unit you may require are incredibly powerfull and very hard to stop...

Sardauker-Kirov Posted March 5, 2002 Share Posted March 5, 2002 Depends on how Many Units and "type" of units they have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gunseng_Harkonnen Posted March 6, 2002 Share Posted March 6, 2002 Well, assault tank attack is not as good against deployed cobras but mixed with inkvines they do a good work. Acha, with buzzsaws they do funny damages, infantry have nothing to say Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terror Posted March 6, 2002 Share Posted March 6, 2002 *Terror's jaw drops* assault tanks not good vs. deployed cobra's?.... the assault tank has no problem in defeating them.... *They die too quickly* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gunseng_Harkonnen Posted March 6, 2002 Share Posted March 6, 2002 *Gunseng looks who is there*A lot of Assaults - YESBut imagine that you have 8 cobras against you (like me in some mission) and you send only vehicles who fight when they r close. They must be mixed with units who shot from distance like inkvine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sardauker-Kirov Posted March 6, 2002 Share Posted March 6, 2002 I killed alot of Cobra's with the Nice Assault tanks. Damn Assault tanks are good, Unless if they fight against the Las tanks  :'( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
House_Corrino Posted March 6, 2002 Share Posted March 6, 2002 True. Â 4 assault tanks can probably take 8 deployed kobras easy. Â Their only weakness is range. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jacobdouds Posted March 6, 2002 Share Posted March 6, 2002 We do need a way to enable the harkonnen repair paid. The Harks need this despertly. Their weaponary is primitive but very effective and expensive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gunseng_Harkonnen Posted March 7, 2002 Share Posted March 7, 2002 Uchmmm...primitiveIt`s funny but sometimes is easier kill lasers with assaults than cobras. I said SOMETIMES, don`t shout Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terror Posted March 7, 2002 Share Posted March 7, 2002 if you can get the laser tanks in a corner yeah.... then it's butchering time!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ligic_Tha_Master Posted March 7, 2002 Share Posted March 7, 2002 NO!!!!! It is WAY too easier to kill laser tanks with cobras! They have their rotating cannon, and the assault tank has to rotate itself.(though depending on the situation...) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terror Posted March 7, 2002 Share Posted March 7, 2002 ah yeah...... well.... assault tanks can turn rather quickly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jacobdouds Posted March 7, 2002 Share Posted March 7, 2002 It's like a big game of paper scissors rock. There will always be a unit that can bet the unit you are testing. I found Assault tanks a very powerful for their tech level. But for some reason my opinion on them changes more regurally than any other unit.

Gunseng_Harkonnen Posted March 8, 2002 Share Posted March 8, 2002 Best is the mass attack with them. They are very good against Atreides units. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jacobdouds Posted March 8, 2002 Share Posted March 8, 2002 The Atreides Hawk Strike has it's uses but is normally very useless. But if an enemy attack force is coming, a hawk strike can slow them down enough to give you more time to prepare. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
