Hello everybody, I was just playing a game, it was a 1v1 after the other two players had been destroyed. So I was having a nice eco and everything you need: T2 Bots, Tanks, Orbital, anti-nukes and nuke launchers myself. After trying to kill him with orbital laser platforms, which didn't work, and after seeing that he had anti-nukes, I decided to send out multiple big blops of armies to harass him. The thing was, that every time I sent out a big army, it just got nuked as soon as it left the base. And to be honest, I didn't really know what to do against that. I don't know if the game wants me to build anti-nukes everywhere or if it's just not balanced, yet. I know that this is all work in progress, so no need to remind me of that. I hope that this is not working as intended, because I found it to be really boring. Greetings
Bombers... massive amounts of bombers.... then nuke him. Also you had orbital control?!?! Take out his anti nukes with the orbital platform.. it will do it, it just likes to have a smoke before it fires.
Also might I suggest the cheapo expansion base near his base, close enough you can pound his face with T3 arty. OR my personal fav.. build 8 nuke launchers... MUHAHAHAH oh you have anti nukes? That's cool.
No, we were pretty even on orbital control, also on the air front. So no player was able to approach eachother. And I was also focussing more on the ground units production. I was pretty much outproducing him on the ground, and he just turned it around by nuking my armies. Like I said, I found this frustrating and pretty boring to play against.
I dunno it gets that deep into the game ground armies become kind of obsolte.. even if he had no nukes long range arty would annihilate any force you could send at him. Although mobile anti nukes would be nice.
I shouldn't say obsolete as if you took out that nuke launcher and he had minimal arty you'd just roll over him.
you where missing an asteroid in your system to put an end to it. but I'm surprised the orbital gun plan didn't work. I'm gessing you lost orbital superiority? you want to build tons of orbital factories and tons of orbital inties to win orbital superiority with, then a single orbital gun can take him out in no time.
Total Annihilations unit called "Hedgehog", something like this is really needed to protect armies that move around.
