TaxOwlbear Posted August 9, 2015 Author Share Posted August 9, 2015 Time to kill some scientists. What could possibly go wrong? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CmmOT5xD1iU Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TaxOwlbear Posted August 11, 2015 Author Share Posted August 11, 2015 This time be burn down a hospital. It's hidden behind a GDI base, though, so I guess that makes it okay.? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q3qxgADI4Ic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TaxOwlbear Posted August 13, 2015 Author Share Posted August 13, 2015 It's the bloody chopper mission. I hate this mission, and while I have been able to beat it, I could never beat it consistently. At times GDI that stomps me and that's it, other times they just sit there and let me destroy the village. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X7qk-RDsJfE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TaxOwlbear Posted August 15, 2015 Author Share Posted August 15, 2015 Nod Mission 8a is a lot more fun than the previous mission. The start can be a bit tricky, though (unless you play the demo version of the mission). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xfBau7c7sHA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TaxOwlbear Posted August 17, 2015 Author Share Posted August 17, 2015 Once more we infiltrate a GDI base in order to take out an even BIGGER GDI base. Oh, and someone gets his head blow off. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CN3pSBb9tOc I like this mission. It's a bit trick, but taking over the base is a lot of fun.

TaxOwlbear Posted August 18, 2015 Author Share Posted August 18, 2015 GDI has taken back Egypt, and All we get to take it back is one commando. Okay, and another run-down base. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EECdue2D-S4 I like this mission. It's a good mix of commando mission and base building mission.

TaxOwlbear Posted August 19, 2015 Author Share Posted August 19, 2015 Once more we free Egypt from the stranglehold of GDI. We are only oppressors on this continent! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MYgTNIdpS3w Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TaxOwlbear Posted August 23, 2015 Author Share Posted August 23, 2015 GDI now has a giant space laser! We better kill their leading scientist. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NLZcymfYs60 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TaxOwlbear Posted August 25, 2015 Author Share Posted August 25, 2015 Instead of killing an unarmed scientist, we can also shoot a really big tank. How about we try that this time? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SBxkH1pPPmc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TaxOwlbear Posted August 27, 2015 Author Share Posted August 27, 2015 It's time to get back the blueprints for our stealth tank in one of the trickiest Nod missions. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wHKO1WLyo0A I'm not sure whether it's even worth it to do these missions the proper way with the artillery.

Nyerguds Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 Huh? What would be "the proper way"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TaxOwlbear Posted August 28, 2015 Author Share Posted August 28, 2015 I think that the devs intended the player to use the southern group to take out the two GDI guard towers with the artillery and then have the northern group take over the base. However, the base can be just taken over from within (especially in the second version of the map where approaching the base from the North gives you access to it) and the towers destroyed with an obelisk or rocket soldiers.

Nyerguds Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 Huh. I honestly never considered using the artillery for that. I HAVE however commonly force-fired them on the water to take out that gunboat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TaxOwlbear Posted August 28, 2015 Author Share Posted August 28, 2015 I'm not sure if that's intended, but the artillery has just enough range to take out the towers. You have to avoid or destroy the gunboat, though, and watch out that your northern party doesn't get airstriked (only possible with a bait minigunner) and risk that your artillery gets destroyed and that you have to do it the other way anyway.

cn2mc Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 It's also possible if you're fast. But yeah, artys can take the towers. That mission's biggest threat in the beginning is always the harvester. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TaxOwlbear Posted August 28, 2015 Author Share Posted August 28, 2015 Yup, first time I played the mission the harvester squished by commando and all engineers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TaxOwlbear Posted August 29, 2015 Author Share Posted August 29, 2015 Once more we have to get back our stealth tanks, and it seems that this time it's even trickier. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZShMlN_fE8M Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nyerguds Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 "even trickier", he says, and then he scouts his construction yard from the north, removing the entire difficulty at the start Apparently it's possible to engineer-rush the enemy base, in this version of the mission XD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TaxOwlbear Posted August 29, 2015 Author Share Posted August 29, 2015 Hey, I didn't design this map. What I didn't show was the five times in the beginning where failed for various silly or random reasons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AchromicWhite Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 Yeah, I'd never used the arty for that (well, not from memory, anyway). I always just used the troops to take out the towers. I also, on the first mission, steal the GDI con yard, but sniping that patrolling tank and punching a hole in the side of their base with stealth tanks. Then just pop an engi in through there, sell their con yard (you lose the ability to make GDI tech, but keep helipads). Then you can use the extra money to make apaches. GDI don't have much AA in their base, so you can pick them apart and keep sniping all their harvs with stealth tanks. They will retaliate, but 1 ob pretty much sorts all that out.

cn2mc Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 You can also ctrl-fire the artys across the river to lay down a barrage and concentrate on units instead of defences. They will take pretty good care of infantry and someties block attacking tanks, which will then try to retaliate but, lacking the range, will just sit at the beach and glare at you. The way I usually do this one is scout everything with a stealth or two, maybe kill the orcas, and then push out with about 10-12 lights and 4-5 flames. GG.

TaxOwlbear Posted August 30, 2015 Author Share Posted August 30, 2015 Using the artillery for a permanent barrage is a neat strategy. The lack of accuracy works in your favour for once. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TaxOwlbear Posted August 31, 2015 Author Share Posted August 31, 2015 So GDI is testing their Ion Cannon... wait, what did I kill that scientist for again? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U_HLTE5Zspc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TaxOwlbear Posted September 2, 2015 Author Share Posted September 2, 2015 Once more GDI is zapping around with their Ion Canon and we have steal their launch codes. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=foCj75Nuu98 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
