best infantry unit?

[Inferno 22]

There IS a sucky one... the Crazy Ivan

[Doctor Destiny 41]

He can be useful if you put bombs on Conscripts and put them in a Flak Track. Deploy or let it be destroyed and KABOOM! Ivan does have his uses.

[Cygnus X-1 12]

Every infantry has his uses. Like Fenring said, different situations for different infantry.

 

although, Cosmonaughts do have longer range than rockies.

 

1 flak cannon, if left alone, can and will devastate a rocky rush. If you have 20-30 rockies with more flying in as you train them, the flak cannon can be brought down quite quickly.

 

If they get 2 up, then you are sunk.

meh, a half dozen IFVs generally, if kept moving and scattered, are sufficient to dfeal with all but the largest of rockie swarms...really no more then pests IMHO.

 

Now, a SEAL with an IVF...that is a threat to take serious.

[CCCP Gosho 0]

Or and IFV rush with all sorts of infantry-that is devastating...

[Inferno 22]

Am I the only one that thinks IFVs with infantry inside are useless?

 

I mean, only with a SEAL or engy they're effective. Otherwise you could also juts have built tanks o' somethin'.

[Doctor Destiny 41]

You have no idea how useful a Chrono Legion IFV can be.

The best IFV combos

SEAL IFV

Engineer

Chrono Legionaire

Sniper

Virus

[Inferno 22]

The best IFV is, in my opinion, empty and elite.

 

But for infantry, yeah chrono leg's are VERY effective.

[Doctor Destiny 41]

Sniper IFVs dominate. They mow through Desolators and Virii like a hot knife through butter.

[CCCP Gosho 0]

Virus IFVs are better...

[Luk3us 63]

Ahh, but not readily available.

[CCCP Gosho 0]

But it is devastating...

:shock: 8) agreed couldn't speak better don't forget ivan and terrorist :wink:

[CCCP Gosho 0]

Umm,crazy ivan IFVs are too expensive...

 

Get "bombed" conscripts in a Flak Track...

[Cygnus X-1 12]

and Ivan IFVs are not readily available.

 

The IFV speeds plus its capability makes it one of the most versatile units ever put into the RA series.

[CCCP Gosho 0]

Exactly!

 

The only better unit than it is the heavy tank-Mammoth,APOC,Emperor etc.

[Cygnus X-1 12]

IFV ish vehicles can pwn Mammoth class tanks with hit and run.

 

But one salvo from the Mammy Class and the IFVs are gone.

 

Nothing like a wall of 50 Mammoth/Apoc/Emeror tanks rushing at you, eh? 8) :wink:

[Doctor Destiny 41]

Does anyone ever have 50 Apocalypse tanks? By the time you have 50 of those, I'll have 100 Mirage Tanks or Rhino Tanks, or 10 MasterMinds. Either of those would own the **** out of 50 Apocs.

 

Not to mention, do games ever last that long?

[Cygnus X-1 12]

When you're done being cynical

 

yes they do occasionally, depending on which n00bs you play against.

 

Whenever games do get that long, they dont end.

100 mirage?? what kind of tanks thank can stand 'em??

[Cygnus X-1 12]

No tank can stand against Mirage tanks, unless that tank happens to be a flying one.

[CCCP Gosho 0]

Well,there are a few tactics to destroy such a rush:

1.Kirovs

2.Siege choppers

3.Flak track full of desolators,sent to the the rush and upon destruction deployed...

4.Deployed desolators everywhere the Mirages might go through...

5.300 Rhino tanks.

[Inferno 22]

6. 10-15 Nuclear Missiles

7. 200 elite Boris'.

8. About 50 bomb trucks, sent one by one.

9. 2000 paradropped conscripts, or 500-1000 Tesla Troopers

10. 150 apocs.

[Cygnus X-1 12]

# 9 and 10 will fail.

 

10 15 Nukes? :roll: n00b

 

200 Borises? *enter sniper team*
