Nyerguds Posted October 20, 2015 Posted October 20, 2015 Heh, yeah. The chinook is a great way around the enemy troops... and then they expect you to sacrifice it just for rescuing that guy's wife, which gives you... a flare at the position you need to go to. Whoop de doo. The chinook itself is more useful.
TaxOwlbear Posted October 20, 2015 Author Posted October 20, 2015 Wait, you are supposed to use the Chinook to evacuate the wife? I thought killing the Nod units on the way to her qualifies as "rescue".
Nyerguds Posted October 20, 2015 Posted October 20, 2015 No, if you evac her, the civilian standing with you at the start will run through the Nod units (who ignore him), over the bridge, and light a flare there Which, y'know, doesn't help at all since it doesn't even reveal the units guarding before the bridge, and you still gotta get through them XD
TaxOwlbear Posted October 20, 2015 Author Posted October 20, 2015 Eeeh... I'll just rush in with the Medium Tanks. :laugh:
Nyerguds Posted October 21, 2015 Posted October 21, 2015 The fun way to do this mission is to get to the Chinook, and use it to get your commando over the rivers and mountains to get to the crates
ore_truck Posted October 21, 2015 Posted October 21, 2015 What I did was I rushed my humvee straight North East like hell and grab the crates. I get 1600 points and 100% efficiency in 2 minutes(game time). The first time I win this is the same way like you did, sending everyone NE without bothering to get the wife. And the part of using chinooks to get past the river and mountains is also a fun tactic. I flew him from the village where you find the wife. There's a stealth tank guarding the wifey.
TaxOwlbear Posted October 24, 2015 Author Posted October 24, 2015 Nod wants to sabotage a peace conference... by dropping a nuclear bomb on everyone. Talk about overkill. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EGEqOkcQQFo
TaxOwlbear Posted October 26, 2015 Author Posted October 26, 2015 Welcome to what is probably the most intense mission in The Covert Operations. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=olXks4WUlCE
TaxOwlbear Posted October 28, 2015 Author Posted October 28, 2015 In which we take out no less than three Nod bases... with one commando. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GY4G9JkEf9I
AchromicWhite Posted October 28, 2015 Posted October 28, 2015 Oh, on inf crawling, just double click when you want to more to a location while NOT crawling. They'll just get up and go
ore_truck Posted October 28, 2015 Posted October 28, 2015 I didn't have any casualty during the first half on the southern island. I used a stealth tank and destroy power to obelisk and turrets from behind a wall.
TaxOwlbear Posted October 28, 2015 Author Posted October 28, 2015 Oh, on inf crawling, just double click when you want to more to a location while NOT crawling. They'll just get up and go That never seems to work for me. I didn't have any casualty during the first half on the southern island. I used a stealth tank and destroy power to obelisk and turrets from behind a wall. Ah, I didn't think of that and used Great War tactics instead. XD
Nyerguds Posted October 29, 2015 Posted October 29, 2015 Double-clicking works, yes. You might have to click a few more times in rapid succession though, so I'm not sure if the "getting back up" thing is actually a feature, or just a bug related to giving commands in quick succession I didn't have any casualty during the first half on the southern island. I used a stealth tank and destroy power to obelisk and turrets from behind a wall. Hah, interesting tactic! I never tried building vehicles there. I always just sell the airstrip for cash.

AchromicWhite Posted October 31, 2015 Posted October 31, 2015 I think you nukes their Con Yard, by the way; which is probably a better explanation as to why you didn't see it, hehe. You sure do like those flame tanks, too. I usually start with lights and turrets and then move into flame tanks (also some bikes and stealth for recon sniping stray tanks).
TaxOwlbear Posted October 31, 2015 Author Posted October 31, 2015 I LOVE flame tanks! Flame tanks setting groups of infantry ablaze is so satisfying.
AchromicWhite Posted October 31, 2015 Posted October 31, 2015 Agreed They're my fav to use against inf, even over SSM!
X3M Posted October 31, 2015 Posted October 31, 2015 The light tank/flame tank combo is one of the best choices against the AI. Those flame tanks actually being meat shield against the medium and mammoth. However, would this combo beat the rush that at least holds recon bike's? Any way, flame tanks are very effective against structure's too. And that is what makes them so satisfying.
TaxOwlbear Posted October 31, 2015 Author Posted October 31, 2015 True. I'll never stop being amazed how fast the Construction Yard or Temple of Nod go down with even a single Flame Tank.

TaxOwlbear Posted November 3, 2015 Author Posted November 3, 2015 Time to evict some people. But which I mean "use flame tanks against them and let them die in agony". http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DLuoz_IPf5g Alternative link for those who don't use Flash.
Nyerguds Posted November 3, 2015 Posted November 3, 2015 Did you know that the Advanced Comm Center in that mission is perfectly positioned for taking it out from the south with a stealth tank squad?
Jacko Posted November 3, 2015 Posted November 3, 2015 Did you know that the Advanced Comm Center in that mission is perfectly positioned for taking it out from the south with a stealth tank squad? Really? I always used arty. Plus Flame and Light tanks to mop up any retaliating units
TaxOwlbear Posted November 3, 2015 Author Posted November 3, 2015 Did you know that the Advanced Comm Center in that mission is perfectly positioned for taking it out from the south with a stealth tank squad? *Cough* I totally knew that of course but that would have been too easy. XD
X3M Posted November 3, 2015 Posted November 3, 2015 Why didn't you use a bit of bazooka support for your turrets, against the medium tanks? Do the MRLS first shoot infantry instead of the base in that mission?
