Navaros Posted April 20, 2003 Share Posted April 20, 2003 quit if you get rushed. that way you don't lose 'cause it's not a valid game. as long as you quit under 3 minutes.other than that, protect your starting Mino and don't waste money on light Inf which will just get run over if the Hark has the slighest clue how to play. Get Minos fast and pop all his Inf and Buzzsaws to death. In the late game, make sure you have mad Air Drones because it's a gurantee that the Hark will mass Gunships against you. Almost all of them do. So make drones for the whole game and that way they will pulverize his gunships when he tries to nail you with them.

Apollyon Posted April 20, 2003 Share Posted April 20, 2003 Do you mean try out playing *as* harkonnen?Well in that case it's simple: Build loads and loads of buzzys and rocket infantry and crush the enemy's spice at the start (noone listens to the 3 minute rule anymore, unfortunately). If the game gets later then get a lot of inkvines as theyre possibly harks best unit by a long way. If it comes to a stand off fire at the enemy units with the inkvine and get them to run into your line. Deva drops are always good as long as the enemy doesnt have too many drones/sard elites. If an atreides player starts to mass minos/an ordos player with kobras then wait for them to get on the sand and then worm them but watch out for snipers.

Use them with some ground units in order to spice camp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lowzeewee Posted April 20, 2003 Share Posted April 20, 2003 OK this are some tips for Harkonnen.Buy riflemen,rocket-troopers,buzzsaws to spice camp.The rocketmen will destroy the enemy carryalls and once the opponent is penniless,kill him off with the units ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
