Club 30's "Kill the Boredom Demon" Jive Pad, 29th Edition

i am more towards military type, like rise of nations or generals or command and conquer
than fantasy futuristic type like starcraft warcraft
but then, whatever it is, no marnee to buy anything

for destroying enemy buildings, nothing comes close to a huge wave of zerglings
total and utter mayhemOriginally posted by fudgester:Warcraft II: the units are not unique. For every human unit, there is one equal and opposite orc unit with very similar abilities. For example: Mage == Death Knight, Ogre == Knight, Footman == Grunt, etc.
Starcraft: the units for each race are totally unique. For example, the smallest Terran fighting unit was a Marine, which was very different from the basic Zerg fighting unit (the Zergling). -

anyway as i said other than different units.
starcraft could have been warcraft(in the future) as far as i could see. -
I prefer getting a Ghost to nuke a Zerg base.Originally posted by the Bear:for destroying enemy buildings, nothing comes close to a huge wave of zerglings

Once the place has been nuked, I would send huge waves of Marines to the base and let it rip.
Reminds me of Starship Troopers.

they are still based on melee or mass attacks to achieve the best results
i think Generals changed all that -
everyone has their favourites
someone i knew could use a squad of siege tanks in tandem with a squad of goliath to deadly effect.. the way the guy used them was something else

In fact, I think Warcraft III changed that.Originally posted by laurence82:they are still based on melee or mass attacks to achieve the best results
i think Generals changed all that
In previous real-time strategy games, the strategy I used most of the time was pretty straightforward: send in lots and lots of infantry (with armour and arty in support) to overwhelm the enemy.
But Warcraft III changed that with the small food limit. I remember getting frustrated initially at having to resort to hit-and-run attacks.
Eventually I became more creative at the use of strategies. -
*Lost*
I prefer racing games. I seldom tire of them because I keep pushing myself to get the fastest time in different cars. -

didnt play
either my pc specs not up to it or my 'public domain' cds chop my carrot heads
in Generals, its not just strategies, but also the combinations of troops you use and the sequence or the simultaneous attacks you have to perform
sometimes, its all in one..i have think of many of stealth fighters i need in combination with the number of snipers/missile guy filled humvees i must deploy
then think of the precise timing i need to launch them
its frightfully delightful, i replay that scenario, using diff combis and strategies just for the fun of it

nope.. you could use stealth with Ghosts..
or you could strategically plant a couple of siege tanks to keep raining down shells to prevent rebuilding or to drain the enemy if they keep trying to...
zergs, you can use the mass melee attacks with the zerglings however, if they are caught by aerial units capable of air-to-surface attacks, they're doomed... or if your aerial units are caught by ground surface-to-air units, they're doomed too..
with the Protoss, you can have carriers escort your bigass cruisers to fire their bigass yamoto guns... but with the Protoss, the mining has to be tip-top else you are dead.. it's the most economically draining, i've foundOriginally posted by laurence82:they are still based on melee or mass attacks to achieve the best results
