Favorite General and why?

[Acerz492 1]

Just one more question: What if said strike force (Overlords, Helixes and Gattling Tanks) did not defend the base, but came knocking on the front door while all your precious aircraft were away, remembering that those Overlords will still pawn those 6-7 Commanches due to Gattling Cannons being able to detect stealthed units, and remembering that the Helixes will be able to take out those Tomahawks with reletive ease? Adding a group of Inferno Cannons to the mix to help deal with both the Tomahawks and base defences, and you have a pretty awsome strike force right there.

 

Hmm.....I think we just about pawned each other's base right there..

Hmm...about a draw there, I think....HOWEVER, what if my patriots focused on your helis Then my tomahawks could starts wreaking havoc, and as soon as their missiles start getting targeted by the AA units, my commanches destroy the inferno cannons and help w/the cleanup Also, combat chinooks filled w/Missile Defenders are VERY annoying to overlords besides the fact that the commanches rocket pods are very good against large concentrated task forces:P

 

So, if I get somewhat lucky, you get PWNED, otherwise, we draw :wink:

[Acerz492 1]

Solution: Troop Crawlers used as cannon fodder, while the Gattling Tanks protect against the Combat Chinooks.

 

However I doubt you'd have a few Combat Chinooks patrolling around at this stage of the game. But who knows?

 

Rembering that I won't just send Helixes and Overlords with the Gattling Cannon upgrade, they'd also have the Propaganda Tower upgrade and, in the case of the Helixes, Bunkers filled with Tank Hunters.

 

All in all it comes down to whoever has the best micro-management. I'm looking forward to getting my broadband so I can get playing again.

and a few patroling MiGs with black napalm or nukes will pwn his airstrike force

[F15pilotX 4]

Well, FYI Cygnus, I keep my aircraft patrolling in the air, not like sitting ducks in the airfield.

 

Also, I could still get 1 strike off if you destroyed my airfields, which is unlikely as I always have my aircraft guarding the air, not ground :wink:

[Cygnus X-1 12]

well if I criple your airfroce and they spend their missiles on attack my MiGs, leaves room for ground pounders to wade in :wink: 8)

[Acerz492 1]

Don't forget zee heavy artillery!

I'll pwn you when i;m knocking on your front door with 10+ tanks before you cant get those auroras and king raptors up

Why do you people persist in this game of rock paper scissors anyway?

 

Back on topic:

 

The GLA stealth general needed more stealth, to put it simply. His fragile forces were too exposed and his GPs didn't charge fast enough to vindicate playing as him, though if you can, its a nice rewarding challenge.

agreed

 

I was fighting him as standard GLA and I thought it was far too easy.

Then in come my stealthed commanches from all sides :wink:

[Cygnus X-1 12]

GAT cannons on overlords and sensors on troop crawlers

 

this could go on forever

 

only one way to resolve it

 

I CHALLENGE YOU TO A DUEL !!! :lol:

 

well, when i get my parental controls lifted :oops:

[F15pilotX 4]

:lol: I'm good at thinking out strategy, but I suck at ZH online right now, so you probably would beat me

It occurs to me that the Stealth General is the best rendition of the terrorist forces in the world today.

 

 

But where are his alleged snipers?! Anyone else notice that he has none?

[Mr_Lee_ 0]

They had the cameo but it was decided that it would heavily bring the scope from the real GLA sniper - Jarmen Kell.

[F15pilotX 4]

Is there a mod w/those snipers in it?

[Cygnus X-1 12]

Jarmel Kell is good, nothing wrong with a little support

 

in the missions the Stealth General (prince Kassad) has US pathfinders

[Mr_Lee_ 0]

Yes he does, and they're very unbalancing in the way they can eliminate the Hero units, despite the hero units being the best way of detecting stealth units. They weren't included in the final cut as a balance issue.

[Cygnus X-1 12]

still would have been fun to have.

 

speaking if snipers eliminating hero units

 

Pathfinder + Spy Drone = unfair advantage, to say the least. :wink:

[Mr_Lee_ 0]

Define unfair.

 

Pathfinders can snipe and Hero units are still infantry at the end of the day. If you want to send heroes out into the field on their own then they deserve to die.

[Guest MadBadger]

Pathfinders are unfair now. The fact they can see hidden units means they can spot JK and now JK cannot reveal hidden units and gets his ass sniped. GLA has nothing that compaires to that along anti-burton lines.

[Mr_Lee_ 0]

Of course they do, what do you call toxin tractors/Quad Cannons and Radar Vans. its all the same 'Generic stealth revealer plus medium ranged Infantry killer'. Simple.

[Cygnus X-1 12]

Pathfinders have always pwned

 

besides, if you are sending Kell out there all alone without even radar scanning to see whats around, then I totally agree with Lee, Kell deserves to die

 

I noticed earlier today when Col Burton wasnt finding Leang's sentry drones, I was amazed he hadnt been sniped yet. (yes yes I know, lone hero and all that, but I did have a sizable force just about ready to go crusading around)

[F15pilotX 4]

And it's fun to see how much destruction you can cause before he dies

 

You can always build another :wink:

[Cygnus X-1 12]

or spend the money on Tanks, comanches, raptors ect....

 

although watching his bombs go off is quite rewarding.
