[jacobdouds]

I mean the scout Vehicles. Sand Bike. Dust Scout and Buzzsaw.

[Dub_c]

You tell em o great one.

[jacobdouds]

Aha. Assaults have a very powerful shoot, so I consider them above basic. Level 2 maybe?

[Fremen_Mentat]

People, Pro's, con's, strategies.

Pro: Powerful anti-air

Pro: Best Superweapon

Con: Lack of Range

Con: Devastators need a starport to build

Strategie:Use a devastator as a decoy for a main attack.

[Terror]

ehm... i wouldn't see the last one as a con... as atreides and ordos have same problems with their "super special" units

[Gunseng_Harkonnen]

Yaa, like this time when I wanted have devastator and hadn`t place for build startport

[Terror]

i know.... building space is a big problem in emperor... though i don't think it's bad... it halts people from building 5 factories or something...

[Gunseng_Harkonnen]

Well, if I had a lot of space, I wouldn`t build 5 factories...but if it was a lot of space, enemy would has better access to our buildings...

[Fremen_Mentat]

The devastator is the heavest harkonenn unit. the other houses simply need to upgrade to get thier heaviest unit. Hark's have to build a starport to get a devastator out. That takes time.

PRO'S, CON'S, AND STRATEGIES. DON'T MAKE ME SAY IT AGAIN!!!!!!!!!

Pro:best vehicles

con: not as good infantry as other houses

[Gunseng_Harkonnen]

Not as good infantry?? Flamethrowers are very good.

[jacobdouds]

Yes, but not as useful like the snipers on later levels.

[Gunseng_Harkonnen]

They are good anti-infantry units but not as good against vehicles.

[Terror]

:-/ troopers rock... and i still don't get you fremen_mentat.. to get the deviator or sonic tank you also need to build the starport... just as for the devastator..

[Ligic_Tha_Master]

A BUG!!!!!

[gunner154]

no, not a bug. they're made in the level of Unique Units.

[Ligic_Tha_Master]

???

[Gunseng_Harkonnen]

This is Westwood, you can`t fight with it, Ligic

[Terror]

;)  sadly, but true....

*fires death hand at westwood, unless they promise to make us another dune game*

[Ligic_Tha_Master]

By gunner154

"they're made in the level of Unique Units. "

What ???

[Terror]

well in emperor this is a bit less recognisable.. but if you've played dune2000 or dune2 you will find out that the greatest difference between the 3 houses is their "unique" unit, namely the devastator, deviator and sonic tank

[The_Cheat_Lord]

They did upgrade the Devestator a little. Now it is more unique compared to the MAD Tank from Ra

[Ligic_Tha_Master]

Yes I know they have their unique units.

[Dezertfish]

Con: Lack of Range

Lack of range?

excuse me, Inkvines are the longest ranged unit in the game, and they rock against infantry, mainly mortars, kindjals, and big groups.

HArks also have missile tanks, which have awesome firepower and can outrange turrets.

They also have troopers, which have decent range for infantry, are cheap, and very effective against vehicles.

The units they have that have short range are obscenely powerful and/or armored (flame, devastators, etc.)

[Black_Emperor]

wouldnt it be nicer to use inkvines to RUN OVER infantry rather than to launch a canaster at them?? Lot more effective

[Terror]

??? inkvines are very good vs. infantry... their weapon kills any infantry in 1 shot (i think) very good vs. mortar and kindjal
