raven3563 Posted May 11, 2002 Share Posted May 11, 2002 Was playing the 4th atredies mission once and i sent some troopers and infantry through the pass at the bottom of the map. When my infantry reached the fremen the harks rushed in a way i haven't seen happen on that mission, and killed my infantry and fremen. I know why this happened, but I was just curious if this has happened to anybody else? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gryphon Posted May 11, 2002 Share Posted May 11, 2002 Yep, I ones thought to send my troopers right in the beginning to the Fremen. Same result. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gunner154 Posted June 29, 2002 Share Posted June 29, 2002 Never do that the Fremen can guard themselves. If you attack the Harkonnens non-stop they won't bother about the Fremen. That's why I rarely suffer any losses for the Fremen back there, though sometimes some idiotic Fremen approaches that Trike coming. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
subarupunk Posted December 11, 2002 Share Posted December 11, 2002 the fremen take care of themselves, just build up your force and then take out the harks. you have to attack smart though get some brutes out there to take all the heat while your long rangers are blasting the heck out of everyone.

gryphon Posted December 11, 2002 Share Posted December 11, 2002 I thought the Fremen could only hold out for a few minutes. After that the Harkonnens attacked them and you had failed that mission.Sending to much troops at the start whould result in a massive Harkonnen attack, sending to few would make non of them survive before reaching the Fremen or they would die in the first mild attack.

subarupunk Posted December 12, 2002 Share Posted December 12, 2002 hmm...I never had problems with either of the situations. A few of fremen were killed while the harks were attacking but the harks never dared to attack the fremen, I don't know why but they never sent a large attack force to me either. I always keep alot of long range and power weapons at the base and attack with the smaller stuff at first. mainly trikes and quads. I love quads! I took out their tanks after about three rushes of quads, trikes, and troopers. I am not talking of those huge rushes that many people use, a rush for me is about 10-15 units, counting infantry, that is not many. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inoculator9 Posted January 26, 2003 Share Posted January 26, 2003 You need to send tanks, infantry are useless since the Fremen fill that role. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spicer31 Posted January 29, 2003 Share Posted January 29, 2003 That's a weird one... when I did mission 4 on Atriedes the Fremen helped me get passed that mission, even though I coulda done it myself.But I need some help on mission 5 though. Any help you guys can give me? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gryphon Posted January 29, 2003 Share Posted January 29, 2003 They helped me to from time to time in that level.But were do you need help in mission 5 ? :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spicer31 Posted February 1, 2003 Share Posted February 1, 2003 I need help capturing the barracks or whatever you need to capture before those guys come. Whenever I try, I build up some units, but I'm always outnumbered. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inoculator9 Posted February 1, 2003 Share Posted February 1, 2003 That mission really needs tanks. Just build tanks. Level 5 is all a matter of production and management. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boba Fett Posted February 2, 2003 Share Posted February 2, 2003 Look, Do what I do. Build a base with 4 brx, send a whole lotta troopers + Inf. Mission Complete. As u can make out, I'm rather a sadist. I don't worry 'bout how many units I lose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inoculator9 Posted February 2, 2003 Share Posted February 2, 2003 I vote tanks. You just run over enemy infantry, or mix in a couple of trikes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gryphon Posted February 2, 2003 Share Posted February 2, 2003 A basterd here myself . .. a lot of infantry units combined with engeneer's. Thought there was a path upper left, first couple of units wil get massive damage, after that they'll walk in. Just make shure they don't send tanks down and attact the troopers still to come so they flow will stop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boba Fett Posted February 3, 2003 Share Posted February 3, 2003 Yeah, thats why I keep letting my units gather at certain points on the way. U'll hafta do that a lot, considering the speeds of different units if u send a mixed attacking force. I mean like, if u send miss tanx, sonic tanx and seige tanx, u'd better keep stopping to let the seiges catch up. :'( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drahgoon Posted April 15, 2003 Share Posted April 15, 2003 do you have them in that level Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boba Fett Posted April 20, 2003 Share Posted April 20, 2003 That was just an example. You know and I know that you can't get Sonic tanks till the 7th mission *Boba stops and re-reads his post. Thinks he's being too harsh on Draggoon and decides to modify. Then changes his mind* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
