Banafrit Posted August 5, 2019 Share Posted August 5, 2019 I'm a noob when it comes to the online, and was wondering: what's the best way to counter the battlefortress, and its infamous (yet very effective) Guardian G.I. + SEAL/Sniper combo? The only strategy I've seen that is viable is to make sure they never build the battle lab so they can never build the fortress. However, I can only really seem to pull this off as Korea (since you can send black eagles to bomb the battle lab), but never as Soviets. If possible, can I get a method for each faction? I can never seem to counter these, and the tips would be appreciated. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ezer_2000 Posted August 6, 2019 Share Posted August 6, 2019 SW off, soviets, allied enemy built BF with GGI: gg, you'll never win that. Allies OP. SW on, soviets, allied enemy built BF with GGI: use iron curtain. Use Yuri faction. Allies vs allies: use mirage tanks, chonosphere and prism tanks. Use rocketeers as fodder to distract BF missiles. Hospital makes rocketers very resistant to GGI attack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FlyingMustache Posted August 6, 2019 Share Posted August 6, 2019 Nah, Soviets can win without the ic, but you can't let the game drag on. Sandwich the bf, or use chops to redirect fire temporarily. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hospital makes rocketers very resistant to GGI attack. It bugs me that the Soviets are the weakest out of all the factions without their SW. Its possible to win, but very hard against the BF, due to the big range on them, going as far as to outrange garrisoned buildings and base defenses. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Basic tanks alert 2 From my experienve there are always kind of people who prefer moer complicated and even more imbalanced games at the same time some of them are complaining about imbalances. Looks like kind of internal conflict in the head they won't get rid of. Others of them have many other reasons of their preferrences. And yeah, your opinion is good.

If your enemy is experienced player this is almost impossible. Tank control takes way more brain activity for making momental decisions compared to just runaway + mirage cover tactic which available to every noob (TOE players with their 20 min no-attck usually take allied fractions and camps with BFs, but they are bad at other maps). Complitely agree with your comment. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Complitely agree with your comment. Yr balance better in sw meta. It's imbalanced without sw. Ra2 balance pretty similar to yr, but ra2 is more basic for my taste. Dealing with forts and Yuri units causes more caution from sov players rather then face rolling Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SodswSov Posted August 10, 2019 Share Posted August 10, 2019 As Soviet you have a spy plane.... just time it right. Or Kirov, and use your brain when it comes to timing. And never click on the bf, click your rhinos way past the direction he will run. Also try to bait him by sending tanks away so he comes at you, then quickly head towards his bf. However if he’s good, he will have other tanks and all you can do is split and use your mobility as an advantage. With allies, Rockies all day as fodder.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EvLKn1GhT Posted August 12, 2019 Share Posted August 12, 2019 As soviets you are much stronger early unless your playing vs a god. You should never let allies tech up, anything to stop it and you will win most of the time. Rhinos >grizzlies. Also superior tank control will beat a bf in most cases.

SodswSov Posted August 17, 2019 Share Posted August 17, 2019 if you had iron curtain, just camp till it’s ready and kill the bf(s). Deso the rest of his shit and call it a gg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kikematamitos Posted September 10, 2019 Share Posted September 10, 2019 BF slowly that rhinos, also need laboratory and rhinos not, play early game if you are soviet and they never get money for a BF, use rhinos for distraction and try to drone it, split rhinos and flank it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cypher Posted September 11, 2019 Share Posted September 11, 2019 (edited) @Banafrit use rhinos + dogs (dogs will distract GGI's) never click on a single BF, always move your rhinos to a certain point behind the BF use flaktrack + drone try to control the game early as a soviet use flying vehicles/troops to distract GGI's (f.e. kirov) use sentry gun when near base (build it just in time when the BF arrive in the range and time your rhino attack) build 2 rhino squads and sandwich the BF's use V3/Dreadnought to distract GGI's and/or hit BF maybe use mass chopper to get single BF's (just when economic superior) or mass siege chopper deployed can make areas hard to capture for BF Edited September 11, 2019 by cypher 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
