Guest Rush-me-quick Posted February 8, 2002 Share Posted February 8, 2002 How do you beat the Ateides on Caladan as a HK? This is the level before the worm one. Now I've played Atriedes but now I want to be merciless and the ATriedies never stop senidng Miinos and Mongeese! Help anyone! ??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ligic_Tha_Master Posted February 9, 2002 Share Posted February 9, 2002 Whats your level of difficulty?Defence... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timenn Posted February 9, 2002 Share Posted February 9, 2002 If I'm right there's only one acces to your base. Deploy many Kindjal + Snipers at one side of the begin of the bridge. Minotaurs at the other side. In the middle some Sonic tanks. Behind them some Mongooses and Minotaurs. And some Repair Vehicles behind that all. That's a defense where no army can get trough. Build an army of 20 Sardaukar and 10 Elite and put them in 6 APC, build (an) Adv Carryall(s) and transport the APC's to the West Edge of the map. Launch your attack form there. You can also send some Sonic Tanks and Repair Vehicles with them. You've only to watch out for Catapults then. When you destructed enough you can use Mongooses/Minotaurs for the rest. And for the Death Hand. Have always min. 1 Engineer. They mostly fire on your conyard. Stay repairing it untill the toxic is gone. Stop repairing and use the engineer...

Guest Rush me quick Posted February 9, 2002 Share Posted February 9, 2002 Yeah, I'm HK, playing on normal level of hardness on the single player mode. Tried a few tactics (finding somehwere to builb & keep my activities "quiet" or finding the larget piece of builable land and fight or try and get the palace built asap so I can start lobbing dhm's ... everything try does not work. What urks me is there is no where large wnough to build except a patch just south of the outlying AT snipers and there are loads of scouts. I've also tried to used engineers to use the AT assets (wind traps, barracks etc) and just rushing teh AT's really early and setting my MCV in their then demolish area... any clues on this one ... that hawk strike just keeps on coming. Oh - I am only allied with the Sardukar, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timenn Posted February 10, 2002 Share Posted February 10, 2002 Sorry! :P :-[ :-[ :'(Build Flame Tanks for those irritating single infantery and fremen, use also scouts. And stealth units to explore the area, there are crates with money everywhere. Build Troopers for Adv Carryalls. And for main defense the good old Assault Tank. Mino's aren't good against Assault Tank. Capture the barracks near your base. Then you can build de Kindjals and snipers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
House_Corrino Posted February 10, 2002 Share Posted February 10, 2002 Assault tanks are really good all around. I've killed a deployed kobra with one before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timenn Posted February 11, 2002 Share Posted February 11, 2002 Kobra's are not meant to destroy armored armies, they are useful but the firepower is to weak for that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sardauker-Kirov Posted February 11, 2002 Share Posted February 11, 2002 They suck against Hark's units though. Unless if they attack the Atreides units ;D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gunseng_Harkonnen Posted February 12, 2002 Share Posted February 12, 2002 No, they r good against Harks, but only in defense. They suck in attack, Harkonnen units r better in this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sardauker-Kirov Posted February 12, 2002 Share Posted February 12, 2002 The Assault tanks are good against the Mino's, But the Las tanks are the best. Esp when they have veterancy they simply blow the guts out of all enemy units. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gunseng_Harkonnen Posted February 12, 2002 Share Posted February 12, 2002 Las tanks...ye, they r good. Everybody say that Minos are so terrible, but few assault t. can blow them uphmmmm...ye, but few Minos can blow up all assault t. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sardauker-Kirov Posted February 12, 2002 Share Posted February 12, 2002 If they are lucky. Hehe ::)Mino's are terrors if they reached the base. or shoot arc over the Cliffs and Hit the base from behind or some other angle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
House_Corrino Posted February 12, 2002 Share Posted February 12, 2002 Also, watch out for sonics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gunseng_Harkonnen Posted February 13, 2002 Share Posted February 13, 2002 Against sonics the best are fast units, like Las or sards.Attack and run and attack again. Cobras, devastators suck with this, sonic vave makes them cry :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sardauker-Kirov Posted February 13, 2002 Share Posted February 13, 2002 Depends on how close they are And yes Devastator destroy's "Alot" of units in one shot. Esp medium armored and even heavily if they are lucky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gunseng_Harkonnen Posted February 14, 2002 Share Posted February 14, 2002 When Devas are close, they can do it, but `cos they r very slow, fast units or group of deployed cobras destroy them before they come closer. Devas r good in defense and when they follow after assauts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
