IxianMace Posted October 10, 2003 Share Posted October 10, 2003 I'm not embarassed to say how long it took me to finish this level at all, since the time taken to finish it really doesn't mean much to me, as far as how 'good' someone is, is concerned.It took me at least 2 hours to finish it, obviously because I play the game on the default speed settings, and I built up my defences, put concrete under my buildings to prevent them from being degraded due to the harsh weather, and built walls, (just about everything you mentioned in your steps to complete this mission I did the opposite of, except for the rushing part).Finally, about your challenge 'progirl4' ::), I'll have to decline that, since Dune 2000 online doesn't work for me, I have no interest in the community there, since they are so hostile in their attitude towards 'new' players, and I obviously would be no match for your 'elite' skills, since I'm just a 'newbie'. Therefore, it would be a waste of time, since we all know you would annihilate 'newbiemace' easily. :)Well, you really are amazing shygirl4, I bow down to your godliness and sheer skill, the meek human that I am. ^_^ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inoculator9 Posted October 10, 2003 Share Posted October 10, 2003 That was entirely stupid :P "Meet me at the courtyard at 8:00, I'll kick your ass!" Come on :P IxianMace here is a model of strategic thinking, modding, and has impecable taste in fine French cuisine ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shygirl4 Posted October 10, 2003 Share Posted October 10, 2003 hi IxianMace you are quite right the dune2000 online comunity is quite hostile , there is more posturing and arguments on there than actual games , when i first joined the online comunity , no one would play me cos i was a newbie ??? and i got kicked from most of the games that i joined. well if you ever do get on line , look me up , im sure we can team up and kill the AI in a friendly game.shy :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DLAGhost Posted November 1, 2003 Share Posted November 1, 2003 put concrete under my buildings to prevent them from being degraded due to the harsh weather I'm posting this to dispel the myths of concrete. If you do not place concrete, what happens is that the building's damage level is halfway done. It does not go beyond that if it is not attacked. This does not affect any building capabilities except in the case of wind traps. If you repair the unconcreted building to full strength it will deteriorate to the halfway point again, but not beyond. Windtraps need concrete, if they are damaged they put out less power. Build one 2x2 square of concrete, and place the top 2/3 of the windtrap on that square. You will have full power with no deterioration.The only problem with having buildings at half strength is Atreides Air Strikes. To protect from air attacks, place 9 missle tanks in the path of the ornithopters, depending on the map and the spots where you build there shouldn't be more than a couple spots to defend. For Death Hand attacks it doesnt matter whether you use concrete or not a direct hit will kill most buildings.The only good thing about concrete is it slows my opponents down.

scotsman Posted November 2, 2003 Share Posted November 2, 2003 I challenge you NewbieMace to a game ? GMT 9:00 p.m. 2 people off of here can watch , while i kill you ?I didn't know you could join an online game as an observer. Is this a common thing that's done. How do you do it? Is this a good way to learn strategy? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DLAGhost Posted November 2, 2003 Share Posted November 2, 2003 Come into game as a player, then surrender, as long as you do not abort out of the game you will be able to scroll through whole map and see everything. It is a great way to watch shygirl turn me into wormfood. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
