<div class="IPBDescription">Just a request.</div> I did a search in this forum and all I found was 5 topics with fade in the name. Only 2 of them seemed to go over some basic stratgey for fades

<a href='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/index.php?act=Search&CODE=show&searchid=6ebaf5d90bd8976fba6cbfff2356c4d4&search_in=titles&result_type=topics&highlite=fade' target='_blank'>http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/in...s&highlite=fade</a>

the topics which did were "rhoads on fades" and "New Respect For Fades" which were good, but really only gave some tactics and no overview of the weapon choice's, role of the Fade, and just basic info..


I have found many topics for Onos, gorge, skulk, and Lerk, many great guides, but no actual guide to the Fade's, just some tips.


I think it would be very helpfull since I dont know much about him and am sure many people dont, for half the cost of onos and 200HP he seems good.

You can post it here if you would like, but Im sure many would rather make a whole topic with their post as the first.

Thanks a lot.

    Basic Fade stategy:

    Fade.buy(adrenaline);
    Fade.buy(carapace);
    while(!dead)
    {
    Throw(acid_rockets, everywhere);
    If(Fade.health == "low")
    RunBackTo(D_towers);
    }

    well, thats sort of because bile bombs <i>don't work</i>

    for strategy,

    i use acid rocket from a distance to take out turret factories, since it goes in a nice straight line.
    i use acid rockets to soften up marines and disorient them with that nice little toxic symbol they get on the left.
    i use melee to take out hurt marines, and most structures
    i use blink to teleport a few feet away, run into a wall, pause to figure out exactly how far i went, then upon moving fall off an edge of some sort to my death.
    i use bile bomb as psyops to get marines to back up a little so I can come in and attack with something that actually <i>does damage</i>

    Java Guide to Fades

    Alien alien= Hive.getInstance();
    Fade fade = null;

    while(true){
    if(alien.getRez()<44){
    alien.wait();
    }
    else{

    break;
    }
    }

    fade.upgDefense(Defense.CARAPACE);
    fade.upgMovement(Movement.ADRENALINE);
    fade.upgSensory(Sensory.CLOAK);

    if(fade.doesEncounterLightMarines()){
    fade.blink();
    while(fade.doesSeeMarines()){
    fade.slash()
    }
    }

    if(fade.doesEncounterHA_HMG()){
    while(fade.doesSeeMarines()){
    fade.acidBomb();
    fade.regenAndHide();
    boolean isFadeInTrouble = fade.getHealthAndArmour()<(fade.getMaxHealthArmour()/2)
    while(isFadeInTrouble){
    fade.callForGorgeHealSpray();
    fade.goToHive();
    fade.goToCraploadOfDefenseChambers();
    }
    }
    }

    if(fade.doesEncounterTurrFarm()){

    To tell you the truth there very may likely be no need for a gide, I just haven't tried using them much.
