Weak Harkonnen units (Inkvine, Flame Tank)

[gunner154]

Shoot the inkvine patch for some serious damage. Buzzsaws and Light Infantry come in here.

[jacobdouds]

Flames and Burning, isn't Harkonnen great?

[gunner154]

The flame is surprisingly excellent against walking mongeese.

[Black_Emperor]

fire can take out anything...cep for mini, other devestators, and kobras. Although kobras are the easiest from the 3

[Ligic_Tha_Master]

Flame Tanks are great for taking out worms.

[Gunseng_Harkonnen]

Yes, but fighting with worm is sometimes impossible. But with Emperor worm they were great...with Sards. Like in Gunseng vs Copec mission flame tanks mixed with assaults were best against troops and inkvines with missile against turrets and other units.  

[gunner154]

The problem in that mission is being attacked and not able to cope with them. Death hand is easy, they always (always) target your con. yard.

Destroy the turrets. Get Ix to help, use infiltrators to damage the palace so that you can do final damage to the palace while Devastators attack your missile tanks.

Projectors come in useful here if you are in the late-game. Duplicate Missile Tanks and target the Devastators, non-stop, till they're dead. Then get some Devastator duplicates of your own (leave one Devastator alive) and then destroy the Palace

Note: This strat is only for alliance with Supreme Commander Gunseng.

[Gunseng_Harkonnen]

Well, good strat, but if somebody is  without infiltrators yet, as I was...I played this yesterday one more time. At the beggining I produced as many assaults and troops as I could, two factories and no turrets. When I kicked a** Copec fools and destrot gunships he sent for me, I start produce inkvines and missile...many misslie. I had very strong defence and Copec fools couldnt do anything to me. Then I sent 10 missile to his base and destroyed palace.

*funny movie*

Offtopic, back to Inkvine Catapults and Flame Tanks.

Flame Tanks have average armour. And Inkvine has weak armour. But strangely the Inkvine Catapult moves very fast, when most catapults were supposed to be slow.

[Terror]

well... they're advanced catapults

[playerap]

lol k see the best thing too do is have 4 missle tanks and 2 inv and just shoot enemy guys and when they come at u ur inv run and u got missle tanks to take care a of a few minos ora few buzzz

[Gunseng_Harkonnen]

Missile are best against turrets, inkvine is sometimes too slow. But is good put inkvines there, where enemy can`t hit them. Sometimes you can destroy all defence with them, although its more difficult than assaults rush.

[Ligic_Tha_Master]

Pain in the a**... cloaked inkvine catapults and missile tanks ;D

[Terror]

lol yeah... i had a cloaked missile tank last day..... god that think kicked ass... killed many units with them.. and now it's an elite unit. Only one problem with  missile tanks though... they have about equal range as the rocket turret on higher ground giving me no advantage..... and an elite missile tank can not beat a missile turret... unless it retreats and heals and comes back ofcourse.... it can hardly survive on salvo of the rocket turret

[Gunseng_Harkonnen]

It was ironic...? `cos missile can actually hide behind turrets

[Terror]

??? i'm sorry but i don't understand your comment.. could you make yourself more clearly plz?

[Ligic_Tha_Master]

???

[Gunseng_Harkonnen]

ou, nothing, but you said this part about cloacked missile like I did something bad

[playerap]

yes i like the cat i like to use it if the enemy is harboring over my base walls just make a few and uif ya got ix just make 1 and keep copping them

[Black_Emperor]

a cloaked Devestator is THE BEST when using it to just walk into the enemy base without them knowing and just wreaking havoc!

[Gunseng_Harkonnen]

This what you do with this deva is stranger than most srtange thing. "The true is out there". I never said nothing about CLOAKED units, I said the long range units like inkvine and missile tank can hide behind turrets

[Timenn]

Scout is anti-stealth-deva-adv-carryall-tactic... ;D ;D

[Gunseng_Harkonnen]

Yeah, and dust scout kill devastator by one hit. And I forgot about engineers! They rock against air drone...

[gunner154]

Engineers cant attack air drones

[Gunseng_Harkonnen]

I think you see it was ironic...
