Devastator_Mech Posted September 5, 2002 Share Posted September 5, 2002 Maybe leeches against Harvesters, but not contaminors at all, they're nothing more than decoration. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timenn Posted September 5, 2002 Share Posted September 5, 2002 I found them very useful, contaminators. But that was only after I edited the rules.txt and disabled all tanks :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GhostHunter Posted September 6, 2002 Share Posted September 6, 2002 God dam mino is most annoying, used to heavily by itself by newbs, gets god dam annoying Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barron Posted September 6, 2002 Share Posted September 6, 2002 Ya i hate when weaklings use one unit or superweapons only to win! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Navaros Posted September 6, 2002 Share Posted September 6, 2002 hahah yes the newbie Mino rush is annoying; i underestimated the power of the newbie Minos rush, and lost two games in a row to a newbie because of it (both on very small maps). i had better strat, 100 000 times better Micro, a much better variety of units... but did ANY of that matter? NO! LOLthe newbie built only Minos and Mino rushed me, and despite my super-micro I still got pounded. That's why from now on if it's a real small map and I am vs. an ATR, he's gonna eat MY Minos from now on, real early. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devastator_Mech Posted September 6, 2002 Share Posted September 6, 2002 Infact mino is quite a multi-purpose unit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timenn Posted September 6, 2002 Share Posted September 6, 2002 Another annoying unit is the Gunship. If the enemy has too much of them. And also enough Helipads. Then your base is screwed within the next 10 minutes. Unless you only build AA, what brings other disadvantages... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devastator_Mech Posted September 7, 2002 Share Posted September 7, 2002 If he does have so many Gunships, it'll doubt he has a sufficient economy and would also have no time building other units. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timenn Posted September 8, 2002 Share Posted September 8, 2002 Yes, 3 upgraded refineries is actually enough Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DukeLeto Posted September 8, 2002 Share Posted September 8, 2002 I find two upgraded refineries sufficent to maintain my economy, don't know though... :- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ethan Posted September 8, 2002 Share Posted September 8, 2002 2 is enough if you dont build a Starport..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devastator_Mech Posted September 9, 2002 Share Posted September 9, 2002 You need to use the money for other things as well !! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IxianMace Posted September 9, 2002 Share Posted September 9, 2002 Well let's see, if you're pumping out NIAB tanks non stop, pumping out Gunships non stop, pumping out Fedaykin with 3 Fremen camps non stop, pumping out units from your factory (with another factory to increase the speed) non stop, then you're definitely going to need more than 2 upgraded refineries. I'd say 3 upgraded refineries would only JUST not be enough to sustain this kind of production. To top it off, I'd go with 4 upgraded refineries at the most, since I'd like to save base space for other structures. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devastator_Mech Posted September 9, 2002 Share Posted September 9, 2002 Well there is so much space in most maps, so 2 refineries would be maximum you could building normally. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IxianMace Posted September 9, 2002 Share Posted September 9, 2002 Well part of how much space you have available also has to do with how you arrange your buildings. ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devastator_Mech Posted September 9, 2002 Share Posted September 9, 2002 Well you must leave some gaps between each building to make road to the back of your base incase of the NIABs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
guusr5644 Posted September 10, 2002 Share Posted September 10, 2002 the most anoying unit is not the mangoose is theharkoonen missile tank!! really anoying Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devastator_Mech Posted September 10, 2002 Share Posted September 10, 2002 Yeah, i agree, they virtually kill any unit with one blast, and will never miss, so annoying !!But the Fredaykin is the worse of all, worm-ride !! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timenn Posted September 10, 2002 Share Posted September 10, 2002 Hmm, I didn't found them so annoying. But hey, it's your opinion ;) But I use them with projecting. And I can imagine that that is annoying for my enemy :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devastator_Mech Posted September 11, 2002 Share Posted September 11, 2002 Oh yeah, thats especially annoying and pissed when they realised by the colour or after the project faded that he/she lose a unit/s because of a stupid projection.

gunner154 Posted December 21, 2004 Share Posted December 21, 2004 pearlmen did a great job awakening this thread after 2 years...But here's what I have to say.I have not heard of much of that mongoose hulabaloo, but the most irritating are actually... leeches. Well, many things tie with this. But why do you think the starter of this thread had his nick as stated for? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
