Most people can't. It's hard to always be on topic. Like right now. I'm off topic. Long Live the RA1 Mammoth!

I'd vote for the MK-II in Tiberian Sun, but the MK-II is supposed to be a special unit which you could only build one at a time. (Westwood's claim that the decision was a hardware constraint sounds really laughable with today's processing power)

Therefore, if we were asking a mass produced regular unit, I would vote for the Emperor Tank. Self healing, dual barrels, and a mini-gun for anti-infantry and anti-air, what more could you ask for? Oh yeah, it could add some speed, even after the nuclear upgrade it's still too slow.

One thing can blow away the Emperor Overlord, though. The least expected unit can. 3 or more Humvees filled with Missile Defenders can destroy a Emperor Overlord. But if the Emperor Overlord manages to run over 1 or more of the 3 Humvees, then it's over. :lol:

Nothing can take on the Emperor Tank one on one, unless it's a plane or superweapon. Your example is 3 vs 1...and the Emperor Tank still costs less.

700x3+300x15=6600 > 1900+I forgot how much the Gattling Gun upgrade costs.

aye, the humvess would be able (and I doubt the Overlord would get near them before it explodes), but a ranked Overlord would destroy a single humvee in a single attack,thus,paying its cost inmediatly.

Must I continue pointing out the fact that...

THE OVERLORD IS NOT A MEMBER OF THE MAMMOTH FAMILY AND THIS IS A MAMMOTH POLL! IT SHOULD NOT BE THERE!

And why are we discussing how to kill the Overlord here? Way off topic!

I'm confuse... what's the difference between Mammoth Tank and Overlord/Emperor? Why Overlord/Emperor cannot fall as same category as mammoth?

 

Mammoth is slooww, big and bad as Overlord/Emperor. It also has secondary attack as Overlord/Emperor if upgraded. And further more it doesn't or never belongs to Allied Forces (I don't know about other title), it this big mean machince always produce/own by the Soviet/Communist.

 

And again, what's wrong with that???

 

P/s: I always blow these ruthless baddies with King Raptors.

Read the last 100000000 posts I put on here. I'm not explaining it again unless I have too.

1. You can't say it's because it has twin guns, a real tank had twins and also the RA1 heavy would then be a Mammoth.

2. The Overlord has now Mammoth in its background. The Apoc has the RA1 Mammy, the MkII has the TD Mammy, the Overlord has no Mammy.

3. The Overlord is set on a completly differant storyline that has 100% nothing to do with EITHER Tib series or Red Alert Series. Generals storyline has no mammoth in its background. According to Generals storyline THE MAMMOTH NEVER EXISTED so how can the Overlord be an evolution of something that never existed?

4. The ORIGINAL MAMMOTH was a good unit. It was a GDI unit not Nod! It was not made by a Soviet nation but by an "Allied" nation. You killed YOURSELF on that one!

 

Shall I continue? Or are you going to give another reason for why the Overlord is a Mammoth that digs your own hole deeper?

 

And further more it doesn't or never belongs to Allied Forces (I don't know about other title), it this big mean machince always produce/own by the Soviet/Communist.

GDI is part of Allied??? I didn't know that. As the matter of fact I didn't know it exist... In game, they exist but are they part of Allied member?

 

Nah... doesn't matter... As far as I know, they are big and bad just like the ol' mammy...

I'm not going to rant this time, simply say that though GDI is not a member of the Allies, it is the equivalent of the RA Allies on the Tib games. And if any big tank qualifies, than the Titan and Mastermind must qualify, they are huge too. I'm making a new poll on TE for this, if anyone wants to revote, go there.

Please do not underestimate the good ol' Humvee. Let me tell you someting. A Humvee rush can bring down a Hard Enemy's base.

No, that's no quite what I meant. I meant only Humvees with Battle Drone upgrade. But you need lots and I mean friggin' plenty of em'.

Heres something to tink over. RA1 Mammoth is better than TD mammoth because of infantry control. What about the super mammoths from Aftermath?!? Very power full. And westwoods claim of harware limitations on MKII was for the storyline. GDI is still experimenting with MKII.

Why are you all arguing by far the best mammoth tank is the one by Fritz it looks amazing and I have recently added to a mod for zero hour. Those who have seen his site will no what im talking about. Fritz's Mammoth could take on anything that Zero Hour has to offer including the overlord :lol:

where's the TS mammoth?

 

Well, it is normally not available, but if you edit the rules ini to change the tech level from -1 to 1, its buildable.

Good piont on TS mammoth. But its rockets arent the greatest against infantry.

 

AND

 

this poll is about the Mammoths made by Westwood/EA

 

otherwise Goliath tanks from World Rebbelion mod would definetly win

Heh, I think that model is a bit outdated, but the UND will have a very big and bad tank someday, I can't add the TS mammy anymore though

When the mod is done, you should have a poll on the best tank in the mod.
