devastator vs minotaurus

[Duncan]

i think the mino is more powerfull them the devastator because is speed can hit a run

dont he ????

[Vanguard3000]

I'm very new at this game, but I think the Minotaurus is pretty slow as well (although not as slow as the Devastator).

[Ligic_Tha_Master]

They are both really slow, altough Mino is faster.

Because of that, Minos can destroy Devastators before

they can hurt them.

[nemafakei]

No, it's the fact that a mino's range can get it to kill a dev before a dev can get near enough for long enough to kill it. Three sonics, however, can kill any number of devs approaching in groups of 1 or 2.

[Duncan]

minos are the terror of devastators  ::) ::)

[s2]

am i the only one who thinks that the devestator can kill a mino anyday?

[Duncan]

i thought too but i saw once 1 mino vs two devastators and the mino kill one and almost kill the second ::) ::)

after that i star to use  devastators to cirugical atacks and served was target to the enemy units when the others are ataccking the  deva the rest of the squad are kiling them :D :D

[nemafakei]

Lone devs are sitting ducks. Back them up, however, and they become a powerful linchpin.

[Duncan]

i agree  8)

[Sardauker-Kirov]

True... Dev's are also bit of the "Superior Building Destroyers" Although i rather prefer the tank in Dune2, Even he is faster then the Dev in this game :D. Anyways the Best tactic is using M-Carryall, to transport the dev's quickly as possible to the minotaurs and now look who is getting his head splitted with an Axe  ::)

Dev's are just the best mech's in the game ( Although i rather prefer the Dev's from dune2... Ohhh i already say that :) )

Mino Vs Devastator: Head on; the dev would smash the mino. The mino would only get a couple shots off before meeting plasma doom.

Mino Vs Devastator: Moving; Mino easily out maneuvers the dev and could pick it to pieces.

Overall winner: Depends on your tactics. It takes micro-management to be able to knock out a dev with a mino, but leave a dev plodding along its merry way, and a mino clueless, and the results is again the dev.

[Timenn]

Yes, Devastators... When you put them for your enemy's defense, they can do lots of damage:)

Yes, it's true about the mino hit 'n run but it takes a lot of time, and when the enemy is busy with that. ATTACK him from an other side. ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

[Sardauker-Kirov]

It looks like the Atreides and Harkonnen have counterparts, I mean the Rocket tank looks like the  :-X Mino.  The Mongoose a little like the assault except it can shoot air units. and Orni's and gunships, Maybe the Harkonnen is the evilllll side of Atreides :D

[evilbaronatreides]

The best thing to do with Devastators (if you have the proper fundage): MASS PRODUCTION!!! Nothing can stop 15-20 Devastators without taking severe damage. The moment they lumber into a base, well, there wont be a base for long.

[nemafakei]

"Nothing can stop 15-20 Devastators without taking severe damage"

That servere damage is worth it to get rid of such a threat.

[Timenn]

When the Devastators has arrived on foot they have already been visited by some worms :)

And otherwise you must build 15-20 Adv Carryalls, also quite expensive and it takes long to build them,

And transporting one by one is also dangerous, cause you just attack when a new Devastator has reached the ground 8)

[evilbaronatreides]

Marching across open desrt is pretty difficult without attracting worms. But 3 devastators can stop a worm in 2 slavos i think.

[Duncan]

walking in the desert with 3 deva and more guys is dangerous if you put a army of deva the worms have a great free lunch  8)

[Sardauker-Kirov]

I heard a flame tank can kill a worm in one shot? Is that true, I mean it happend to me once, I thought mine flame tanks were a goner but suddenonly one shooted. Killing the worm in one shot  :O

[nemafakei]

A sonic tank can. I've done it - the tank was running, but too slowly - so I turned and shot it and the worm disappeared into the sand, not to be seen again. And it was on full health before I shot it.

[Duncan]

cool  ::)

sonic to  the worms

[House_Corrino]

One phrase describes a massive wall of devastaters: slow but unstoppable.  Both mechs are awesome, but I like the sonic more than them both

[Sardauker-Kirov]

Well The Deva's are not unbeatable  :P unless they have some Veterancy so they can fire farther, But the Shai Hulud Sure loves em Deva's to eat  >:(

[Duncan]

a way to stop a full scale atack of deva if you are atreides use the hawk strike in them when they are runing you hunt them down

with ordos use lighting charge let them kill wich others
