Moose212 Posted July 22, 2002 Author Share Posted July 22, 2002 There has to be a way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edric O Posted July 22, 2002 Share Posted July 22, 2002 Actually, no there isn't. House Ordos is for rushing. The Atreides are for turtling and long drawn-out games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devastator_Mech Posted July 22, 2002 Share Posted July 22, 2002 I'll say sonic tanks !! A few minotaurus as anti-infantry support, and mongooses as AA supports and ground support when the sonic's are reloading. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Desert_Eagle25 Posted July 22, 2002 Share Posted July 22, 2002 As a RUSH team ?! thats impassible unless ur using sum super-fast mod Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Desert_Eagle25 Posted July 22, 2002 Share Posted July 22, 2002 the time it would take for those units Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devastator_Mech Posted July 22, 2002 Share Posted July 22, 2002 They maybe too slow as a rush team for must people. My rush team needs to be unbeatable, not unstoppable in BEING killed.So whats your rush team? Is it a bunch of sand bikes? They sure are very fast indeed!!

Desert_Eagle25 Posted July 22, 2002 Share Posted July 22, 2002 hahai never play atreides, all i play is ordosand if it's unbeatable and takes a while to build, it's no longer a "rush team" but a standard force.Mines is laser tanks and dust scouts...

GhostHunter Posted July 23, 2002 Share Posted July 23, 2002 Afraid to say your all wrong. You can rush with Atreides, its a combo of sand bikes, feyds, infantry and a lot of micromanaging. Until next post, Vilgent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I personally think rushing will only waste precious time and recourses. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Devastator_Mech Posted July 24, 2002 Share Posted July 24, 2002 I'm not a person who likes to rush, but it should work in the early game and if your foe isn't ready for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GhostHunter Posted July 27, 2002 Share Posted July 27, 2002 As a true Atreides rusher I can tell you it can be done ( Atrown in qm check rec currently 16-5 long story on why I lost those 5 ) but first you need to figure it out and do a lot of micromanaging.Until next post, Vilgent.

Devastator_Mech Posted July 28, 2002 Share Posted July 28, 2002 Then you'll require some recon in the beginning of the game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edric O Posted July 28, 2002 Share Posted July 28, 2002 Still, Atreides is the WORST House for rushing. The famed Ordos rush or even the Hark buzzsaw rush are better than anything the Atreides can scrape up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GhostHunter Posted July 29, 2002 Share Posted July 29, 2002 Edric my qm rec is 17-5, thats all Atreides rushing, one game I got d/c'ed, and 2 I messed up and experimented with bo, and another I accidently hit my comps restart button ya I know I was like >:( ) So if you dont count those It'd be 17-1 With Atreides rushing, that means I lost 1 game outta all that Harkonnen and Odos macths so ummmmm....... ;D. Until next post, Vilgent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DukeLeto Posted July 29, 2002 Share Posted July 29, 2002 Ever seen my Devastator rush? You build 20 devastators, and rush. ;) It may not e fast, but it works. ;DP.S. Don't forget some defense, too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Desert_Eagle25 Posted July 29, 2002 Share Posted July 29, 2002 Thats not really a rush...thats more like a full frontal attack....Rush-Time usually last 3-5 minutes into the game... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devastator_Mech Posted July 29, 2002 Share Posted July 29, 2002 Ever seen my Devastator rush? You build 20 devastators, and rush. ;) It may not e fast, but it works. ;DP.S. Don't forget some defense, too.20 devasator rushing together is more like your really over-number your foe, thats so cheap. But if your foe is fully using anti-tank infantries, your rush wouldn't last long. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edric O Posted July 29, 2002 Share Posted July 29, 2002 LOL, 20 Devastators don't "rush" anywhere. Besides, that's just a cheap full frontal attack... And it doesn't even work. No single type of unit can win the game for you.The Atreides can use a massive amount of Kindjal on infantry rock, and the Ordos can just deviate your Devs and make them go "boom". :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devastator_Mech Posted July 30, 2002 Share Posted July 30, 2002 Exactly, even the mighty Devastator will need supports like Flame Tanks and Missile tanks.As like what edric o said, there's none of a single unit in the game you could totally rely on, even the largest military weapon on the battlefield(Devastator) will be in the category.
