dOOmpOwEr Posted March 14, 2002 Share Posted March 14, 2002 gunner, missile tanks cannot destroy a mino in one hit. If it did it would have to have 2 cheverons. Man u blind or something???Hark missile tanks kill a non-veteran mino in just one shot. And that's a fact. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Man...are u blind or something???A missile tank kills an not-veteran mino in just one shot.so in a 1v1 the mino always loses, since a non veteran mino is not able to destroy a missile tank in one salvo.And that's a fact. ???

Sardauker-Kirov Posted March 14, 2002 Share Posted March 14, 2002 Atreide's just suck at pure assault. Mongoose's will be shredded to pieces by the tanks. Also do note the Buzzsaw can beat a Mongoose  1 vs 1 when the buzzsaw uses their full guns. And Since Harkie's are more faster then the mecs. The Missile tanks can retreat and attack, retreat attack etc etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black_Emperor Posted March 14, 2002 Share Posted March 14, 2002 thats the sucky thing about a missle tank, takes about 2 mins to reload Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sardauker-Kirov Posted March 14, 2002 Share Posted March 14, 2002 True. But their firepower is statisfying. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gunner154 Posted March 14, 2002 Share Posted March 14, 2002 Missile Tanks will retrain their firing tubes when they're standstill.When Missile Tanks fired a salvo at a mongoose (killing it) and then runs (on the move), for like 5 minutes and then you ask them to attack a Sand Bike, the Sandbike will get to pump some shots in before being taken out by the salvo.Why? It is because Missile Tanks only reload when they're not doing anything (as long as they sit where they are and don't move, reloading is about 10 seconds in singleplayer {No lag} ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jacobdouds Posted March 14, 2002 Share Posted March 14, 2002 Why does the Missile tank only reload when still? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gunner154 Posted March 15, 2002 Share Posted March 15, 2002 I think it's a one-man crew so retraining firing tubes would mean that it has to stop and take time to reload  ??? ??? ???I think... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IxianMace Posted March 15, 2002 Share Posted March 15, 2002 No, actually I don't think Missile Tanks have to sit still to reload. They automatically reload after firing their missiles, regardless of whether or not they're actually moving. That's why I always use a fast unit as bait for a Minotaurus, and when the Minotaurus stands there reloading, I hit it with the Missile Tank and come back so the Missile Tank doesn't get wiped out.

Black_Emperor Posted March 15, 2002 Share Posted March 15, 2002 isnt it better to send tons of Missle Tanks so that you dont have to reload and the same time you can take out an army? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gunner154 Posted March 15, 2002 Share Posted March 15, 2002 I remember my missile tank attacking some minos and a mongoose, we lost, but I had some units fleeing. And like 4 missile tanks were fleeing with some assault Tanks.When I was suddenly ambushed by a couple of Kobras, I tried to fire, but had to wait to reload, when they were still it took them about 10 seconds and another salvo went off.

Sardauker-Kirov Posted March 15, 2002 Share Posted March 15, 2002 The problem is, When the units stand still the AI Always chooses the infantry or some other weak unit that doesnt do much damage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
playerap Posted March 19, 2002 Share Posted March 19, 2002 yes but what about that mongoose vs buzz no way buddy inpossible Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sardauker-Kirov Posted March 19, 2002 Share Posted March 19, 2002 Yes way possible. I killed a mongoose with my buzzer when he got first strike. 3 Dust scouts/bikes can kill a mongoose.

Sardauker-Kirov Posted March 19, 2002 Share Posted March 19, 2002 LoL...... If you dont know that, You dont play BFD really much i notice. 3 Dustscouts is enough to take out a Las tanks or Mongoose. It doesnt destroy a AS tank. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gunseng_Harkonnen Posted March 20, 2002 Share Posted March 20, 2002 One buzz can kill mangoose. Mangoose is slow and fast units can  ;) them out...if behind mangoose isn`t preety mino Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sardauker-Kirov Posted March 20, 2002 Share Posted March 20, 2002 Atreides Die too easily. What a weaklings :)The mongoose weapon range rocks though. I wish the Assault tank had their range. Or atleast a Height bonus. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gunseng_Harkonnen Posted March 21, 2002 Share Posted March 21, 2002 Well, I destroyed 7 mangooses with 2 assault tanks...and then came mino...and 2 assault tanks became history...I hate Atreides... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sardauker-Kirov Posted March 21, 2002 Share Posted March 21, 2002 7 Mongooses.... Did they even fired at you? Â :-/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gunseng_Harkonnen Posted March 21, 2002 Share Posted March 21, 2002 Of course they fired...three times...and then started shot to my gunship who was shoting to mino and then assaults killed mangooses. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sardauker-Kirov Posted March 21, 2002 Share Posted March 21, 2002 Weird. Some of my assaults always got killed by those annoying Mongooses. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gunseng_Harkonnen Posted March 22, 2002 Share Posted March 22, 2002 I send gunships, mangooses were busy and didn`t kill assaults. But those assaults had red thingy over them, so they were almost dead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timenn Posted March 22, 2002 Share Posted March 22, 2002 Mongooses have the best firepower. But assault is designed to be the best on frontal assault.Hey it's in the name... ;D ;D ;D ;D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
