Procyon Posted April 3, 2003 Share Posted April 3, 2003 Which would be the best units to protect a base or a spice field with the danger of the sandworms??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muad dib Posted April 3, 2003 Share Posted April 3, 2003 If your harkonenn, the ADP is great for protecting spice fields. The base depends on who you are and who you playin against. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ken124578 Posted April 3, 2003 Share Posted April 3, 2003 There's no standard defence in this game, it all depends on the player, your opponent, the map and the situation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Duncan_ghola Posted April 3, 2003 Share Posted April 3, 2003 Low you are realy simple minded, the reason why i mentioned rocket troopers is because thats what he would have said as a reply to my airdrones, so i managed to save us from posting an extra topicno comprendo low? ???

Duncan_ghola Posted April 3, 2003 Share Posted April 3, 2003 i know the mind of another player if hes lazy he would send troopers, if hes more determinded maybe a combination. ask him, ask your self aswell. "would i send troopers to defend my caryals against airdrones?" Or would you rather send flame tanks? ??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lowzeewee Posted April 3, 2003 Share Posted April 3, 2003 anyway,the only units capable of defewnding are the rocket troops,missile tanks and ADP. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skilzat99X Posted April 4, 2003 Share Posted April 4, 2003 ya the worm could be a problem, but only if its the one where it shoots up from the ground (how do u stop those anyway! ??? ) But theyll murder a normal moving worm. or if u spread them apart enough u wont have to worry.

ken124578 Posted April 6, 2003 Share Posted April 6, 2003 I don't think you can "out micromanage" my lasertanks and kobra's, let me explain you how i'm going to use it.First i let my kobra's come close, seeing as you only have a few bikes and minotaurs i can get them just into range so that they hit the sandbikes and minotaurs, else i'm just gonna hit 'n run you to death, the sardaukars damage/destroy some sandbikes before my kobra's have deployed themselves.After that your sandbikes are gone and your minotaurs are destroyed by a few kobra's and lasertanks.btw. as for those 8 snipers, manually targetting my sardaukars is bad (sardaukar mixed with some lasertanks for some temporal protection untill my kobra's are deployed)This works, i've done it alot.

GhostHunter Posted April 7, 2003 Share Posted April 7, 2003 Here's my motto."If you always on the offensive then you won't need to build units for your spice because they will never TOUCH your fields." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
