Sardauker-Kirov Posted March 21, 2002 Share Posted March 21, 2002 I Highly doubt the Sardauker will survive. If you drop the deva in the base, He will maybe die. But he will take alot of buildings and units with him. While the Sardauker's only destroy a few units. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caid Ivik Posted March 22, 2002 Share Posted March 22, 2002 Sure, Sardaukars have no chance in dumb frontal attack in closed formation. With good maneuvering scattered Sardaukars (better Elite Sardaukars) in octagram formation will destroy Minotaur with not more than one loss. Larger force, about 4 Minotaurs should make some ness, but one - but also, who use one lone Minotaurus? It's good for this mech, that it has warheads with high effect against infantry armor, but what's better: rate of fire of Minotaur's quad or Sardaukars cannon (resp. Elite's lasergun)?Also, Devastator has totaly NO chance against Sardaukars. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timenn Posted March 22, 2002 Share Posted March 22, 2002 But you must get near the mino's before you attack, when they walk it's good to do but a pack of mino's standing is not good to approach for infantery, you can only pass them with , by example, laser tanks, and that way circle around them but when you go straight ahead to the mino's there is no chance...

Caid Ivik Posted March 22, 2002 Share Posted March 22, 2002 Sardaukars have a great range of fire. Also, rolling tactics, very known from mech-simulation games (damn those Stingrays in EarthSiege!) are very good. Sardaukars never prone, so they're always fast (only a short time when firing).

Timenn Posted March 23, 2002 Share Posted March 23, 2002 The deva doesn't slow down also, it's a Harkonnen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terror Posted March 23, 2002 Share Posted March 23, 2002 in what way can slow the devastator down anyway? :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ken124578 Posted March 23, 2002 Share Posted March 23, 2002 kill it or a blokkade or let it selfdestruct. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timenn Posted March 24, 2002 Share Posted March 24, 2002 Blokkade is the only way, because it's a Harkonnen unit it won't slow down if it is under fire. It is the advantage of House Harkonnen... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sardauker-Kirov Posted March 24, 2002 Share Posted March 24, 2002 That doesnt compensate the slowness of their units though. Well thats my opinion then. Â :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timenn Posted March 25, 2002 Share Posted March 25, 2002 Harkonnen => Much Armor => Slow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sardauker-Kirov Posted March 25, 2002 Share Posted March 25, 2002 Harkonnen + More range = Okay! ;D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timenn Posted March 26, 2002 Share Posted March 26, 2002 Inkvine had the longest range in the game already... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terror Posted March 26, 2002 Share Posted March 26, 2002 yes but it's not an alround unit like the mino or the  kobra Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timenn Posted March 26, 2002 Share Posted March 26, 2002 Kobra and Mino aren't allround also, they are not good vs armor and buildings, and they aren't AA, and they are slow (ok the Kobra is fast but not for Ordos standards...) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terror Posted March 26, 2002 Share Posted March 26, 2002 well... at least  better vs. armor than inkvine.. and they can better hit moving targets than the inkvine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timenn Posted March 26, 2002 Share Posted March 26, 2002 That't true, but the Harkonnen have another longrange tank, the launcher. Ok not so longranged as the 3 longest range tanks and the mortar and kindjal, but it does a lot of damage and they hit always Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gunseng_Harkonnen Posted March 26, 2002 Share Posted March 26, 2002 I like Harkonnen long rage units, they kill preety fast. But if only deva had longer range...but it would be unfair, such powerful unit with long range...it would be better than mino... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timenn Posted March 26, 2002 Share Posted March 26, 2002 It is already better then a Mino Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gunseng_Harkonnen Posted March 26, 2002 Share Posted March 26, 2002 Yes, deva is better but it sometimes suck that when devastator is too far from mino to shot to him and mino can already shot...but if deva is close, mino hasn`t any chance.

Ligic_Tha_Master Posted March 26, 2002 Share Posted March 26, 2002 Best unit against a devastator is inkvine ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timenn Posted March 26, 2002 Share Posted March 26, 2002 Naah, laser tanks are better, or the Deviator... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sly1 Posted March 26, 2002 Share Posted March 26, 2002 How do I put cool pictures on my posts? ???I feel so inferior... :'(Devastators win everything....unless faced with about half their number of deviators Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gunseng_Harkonnen Posted March 27, 2002 Share Posted March 27, 2002 Deviators are so easy to destroy... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
