ken124578 Posted March 23, 2003 Share Posted March 23, 2003 Let me quote myself again.The lasertank is the best overall tank Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apollyon Posted March 23, 2003 Share Posted March 23, 2003 I think that the worm is the best. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terror Posted March 24, 2003 Share Posted March 24, 2003 laser tank is very good, except vs. infantry... it's virtually useless vs. infantry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Eric E. Posted March 24, 2003 Share Posted March 24, 2003 You can easilly kill a fedaykin with a laser tank even whenplaying against a human. I didn't know that they are so! manuverable.I found it out a about a week ago when I killed three of them with fourlaser tanks.Though i agree that Fed. is a good unit. A laser can take out a fedaykin? LOL..Laser the best unit? My ass, Fedaykin is the best. Second best is a normal sard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ken124578 Posted March 24, 2003 Share Posted March 24, 2003 Actually, a lasertank can kill a fedaykin, it just takes a bit longer.The lasertank is the best overall tank, there cannot be a "best unit" because every unit has its weaknesses, for example that of the fedaykin's, a buzsaw can squish it, an assault tank can squish it, a missile tank can squish it, a devastator can pulverise it before it can do some real damage, a kobra can squish it, it's useless on its own against turrets, it's useless against a group of sardaukars, it'll just be sliced to pieces, it cannot shoot airplanes, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terror Posted March 24, 2003 Share Posted March 24, 2003 it's cloaked though, that way it can prevent being squished, and it's one of the fastest killers in the game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ken124578 Posted March 24, 2003 Share Posted March 24, 2003 A fedaykin uncloaks when it shoots, there is NO best unit, emperor isn't balanced anymore of there was a best unit.Btw. Those units are in your opinions the best, just like me, IMO the lasertank is the best overall tank. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scy Posted March 24, 2003 Share Posted March 24, 2003 there is NO best unit, emperor isn't balanced anymore of there was a best unit.what's wrong with best unit? :-, if u say they are no undefeatable unit in emperor maybe ok!. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skilzat99X Posted March 25, 2003 Share Posted March 25, 2003 the BEST of the BEST of the BEST id, even if its not my favorite... the....dondondondondondoooonn!!1(drum roll)the deviatorits like having all the units of emperor in one. it just doesnt work that well on infantry.also the projector. make 5 projectors, clone 50 dust scouts!

ken124578 Posted March 25, 2003 Share Posted March 25, 2003 *bangs his head against the wall*Look, there cannot be a best unit since every unit has multiple weaknesses.Deviator: infantry and airplanes.There can be a best overall tank or best airplane (airdrone, a group of those things and you can kiss your carryalls good bye)or best infantry unit.Having a best unit means that that unit can destroy EVERYTHING, fedaykins, tanks, airplanes, infantry, which is impossible in emperor.

IT CAN WALK TO THE LASER TANK AND HIT&KILL IT IN 1 OR 2 BLASTS. thank you very much.Do not swear, we accept some swearing but within reason. Another disappointment, i thought that after having emperor for 13 months people would respect me more with its strategies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Apollyon Posted March 25, 2003 Share Posted March 25, 2003 Well that was a tad unnecessary but... I do agree with you. ;)Although a laser tank can kill a fed, in a straight fight it wouldn't stand a chance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ken124578 Posted March 25, 2003 Share Posted March 25, 2003 Thought i would earn more respect after 13+ months... oh well, here are 2 screenshots to prove you 2 wrong.First i gave the fedaykin a very good oppertunity to get close and shoot, its shot got rid of the shield and a bit of its health...[attachment archived by Gobalopper] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ken124578 Posted March 25, 2003 Share Posted March 25, 2003 But the lasertank still got away.Alright, that proved you two wrong, there cannot be a best unit, a best unit is the cheapest unit that can destroy/kill any type of infantry, tank, airplane and building, which is impossible.[attachment archived by Gobalopper] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terror Posted March 25, 2003 Share Posted March 25, 2003 however you gotta admit that if a group of let's say 5 fedaykin come, laser tanks are generally toast. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Apollyon Posted March 25, 2003 Share Posted March 25, 2003 Alright, that proved you two wrong, err.. you didn't prove me wrong in any way whatsoever."Although a laser tank can kill a fed, in a straight fight it wouldn't stand a chance. "still true. Laser tank gets attacked at random by cloaked fed - laser shield gone - slow. So youre saying that you proved me wrong when I said that now the laser is slowed, weakened, and in retreat that it's still going to beat the fedakin, the *cloaked* fedyakin in a straight fight? Notice that I never once said that the fedyakin is *better* than a laser tank. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ken124578 Posted March 26, 2003 Share Posted March 26, 2003 A single fedaykin can never ever destroy a lasertank, if the player keeps a good eye on his units ofcourse, the lasertank will just regenerate itself and get a few shots off the fedaykin, in 30 minutes that fedaykin is toast ::)Every unit has its weaknesses, lasertanks aren't good against infantry but it's the best overall tank.

ken124578 Posted March 26, 2003 Share Posted March 26, 2003 OMG SCY :O haven't you seen those screenshots? his first shot (close range) got rid of its shield, the lasertank fled and the fedaykin wasn't able to do much damage with its second shot (as shown in the screenshot) A single fedaykin can never *EVER* destroy a lasertank, using its cloaking abilities to its advantage would mean that the lasertank can use its speed to its advantage, a fedaykin can again, NEVER destroy a moving lasertank.Let me repeat myself: There cannot be a Best Unit, there can be a Best Overall tank, infantry unit, turret, airplane, every tank/infantry unit/turret/aircraft has its weaknesses, so there cannot be a Best Unit.And for those that are still confused about the things above, Best Unit means that that unit is the cheapest, most strongest tank or infantry unit that cannot be crushed, with the most armour and the best speed that can kill/destroy anything (infantry, tanks, turrets, airplanes, buildings) with ease.Best Overall unit means that that unit has more + points then weak points compared to other units of that type (tanks, infantry, turrets or infantry) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
