New Commander Strat

FunkTheMonk

Tis a very simple idea that is bound to make the marines win, costs alot of points but who cares?
Havent actually tried it yet so it might not work

Stage 1
Build one of those radar thingys and research the blue flashy i-know-where-your-hiding thing.

Stage 2
Gather your troops up in 1 point

Stage 3
Use the radar thing to pin-point the location of all near by aliens

Stage 4
Drop buildings on the aliens so their trapped

Stage 5
Send in the troops to kill the non moving targets, and if ya really want ya can get some buildings outta it!

Slight problem -- the aliens can eat their way out of the buildings you drop on them in fairly short order. Good idea, though <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->

that would kill the aliens.... once.
Then they respawn and they destroy the spread out buildings.

(Not to mention having ripped your base to shreds while you were waiting)

FunkTheMonk

well i did say it'd cost alot <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->

it <i>should</i> give the marines enough time to take out the intended hive

Yeah...But it would definately work to trap that annoying Onos in your base while the marines finish it off.

FunkTheMonk

actually thats a good point i hadnt thought of it like that

Ahnteis

Wonder if you could do that or if it wouldn't let you?
If anyone manages, let us know. <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

sorry the main forum is updated so quickly ive not had a chance to look/even know about the other forums

lol yeah trapping onos by building a turret on him could come in very handy <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo--> Though if it does work, I'm sure it will be fixed in the first patch <!--emo&:0--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wow.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='wow.gif'><!--endemo-->
