I remember a long time ago when I played this game I couldn't defend that base at the bottom. So I sold all of the buildings and just bunkered up at the starport with my army. Eventually I had a huge strike force and I blew up every single Harkonnen building before capturing the barracks
@apocalypse221 I learned how to deal with the AI during my play as harkonnen for my next upload. The same reaction happenes in Command and Conquer. Build a strong base defense, Rocket-Tanks in the back and then send a troop to attack the enemy harvester. All enemy units will then leave the base and attack your base. Destroy them all, and send your own troops into the enemy base and you will not encounter much problems. I am gonna try this next week.
I have finished this mission two different ways. Bunkering in has always worked, but you have got to stay put. Going out just draws their fire. Abondoning the lower compound is tough to do, but you spend way too much money and equipment trying to defend.
Hi ich verstehh nett warum das so schwer für dich ist bzw war is doch gans easy !
ich habe mir immer denn haffen gehollt dann ne bauhoff neben den hafen 2 winsilos und 1 rafenerie und dann immer nur durppen gekauft über den raumhaufen
c) In this mission it's pretty useless but in later missions I find it useful to constantly harass their harvesters before attacking. A mix of quads, tanks and missile tanks are good for this. Or deviators :P
d) When you decide to attack use the defensive formation outside the enemy's base, then have 2-3 tanks attack his turrets and immediately retreat and have their army come at you. Btw, I need 2-3 times the troops you used to attack in this mission. At least.
This mission is no problem even at hard difficulty, lvl 5/7/8/9 on Ordos and lvl 7/9 in Harkonnen are way harder.
To win you have to
a) NOT ATTACK unless you have maaaany troops, or can do hit&run attacks.
b)use proper defensive formation. tanks/turrets in front to receive damage. Infantry in rocks/missile tanks behind/quads flanking (if you like to use quads group them via ctrl+#, have them stay at a distance and recall them at every enemy attack, else don't use them) to deal the damage.
haha,i remember this stage.For me it was the hardest.I was triyng to destroy the enemy on every way : suicide attacks,attacking with all the forces but few days latter i won :)
To beat this one, you need 100 total units (trikes + quads + tanks), not 20. Just wait for him to attack a several times (if he doesn't attack, use a trike against his harvester then run) while building up your army (place gun turrets at both of your bases). Then, immediately after a wave of his perishes to your gun turrets and missile tanks and siege tanks, attack with your 100 units. Count them if you have to. And send 50 to the west entrance of his base and the other 50 to the east entrance.
I know how the mission can be defeated. One trick to the gameis to create as many light factory units you can. They're fast and pack a punch. That and as long as you have some 3 refineries you should have a steady economy at first. Another thing is to build Harvesters and carryalls from the spaceport when other units are on shortage or unavailable.
A fair trick is to reduce the game speed. If this is the speed at which you are playing the game; no wonder you lose. If you slow things down, you can make more tactical choices in the heat of battle, and you will win more battles.
Infantrie horten 10 Raktrooper und 10 leichte Infantrie, dazu 5-6 Pioniere.
3 Pioniere und 5 Raktrooper sowie 5 leichte nach Osten den rest nach Westen.
Osttrupp geht ganz rechts nach Norden zum Schmugglerraumhafen und nimmt den ein, dann gibts ein MFB und Panzer!! Wichtig! MBF nach unten schicken eventuell mit Eskorte.
Dann Sammler angreifen und mit dem Westrupp nach Norden in die Base, sobald Wache weg ist, dann Bauhof und Raffinerie einnehmen.
lol passed this mission heaps of times easy:P a tip, If you don't want em to send a huge ass force at ya DON'T attack their harvestors cause it tends to piss em off and get you slaughted lol btw attack the starport at the 1 minute mark like get piles of men with rockets and rifles to deal with it but put em just out side the starport land so when the 1 minute mark hits do the assault, always create don't stop cause you can protect your main base aswell as the starport if done right :)
I've never played this game, I am a starcraft player. Why don't you make much much more units? Don't stop producing. If there is no hole in your production, you should win that easily.
actually thus was so easy..... all you have to do is sell all of your buildings and take them all to the left corner and then you can take the baraks and then you win... its easy
This was one of the thoughest battles for me, i was defeated time and again by the endless Harkonen army; but on the other hand this was my first RTS game and my battle tactics were very noobish and with my actual level of skill this mission is no match for me.
@vanjedor just turtle wih defenses. stack up your forces. on the other hand, build alot of harvesters. I build up to around 20 plus and five refinery. wait around 15 to 20 minutes until ur army is very large. Then attack...i use the same tactic for all the missions and it works.
LOL this was pretty easy ... you don't have to claim the starport ... i attacked with 4 or 5 squads of troopers (4-5 x5) 5 engineers just in case , about 10-13 trikes and 6-7 quads :D it was darn easy but im not sure about the next one :(
Until the carriers arrive you will have to micromanage your existing harvesters to avoid worms. When you have enough carriers this will not be an issue. Then I went on to technologically advance my base. But that was not necessary as I found out later.With 4 harvesters and about 3-4 carriers you will have tons of money. So order only vehicles that are available at the port as they come in a lower price because of the smuggling.
NO NEED to build your own units. Each time your new vehicles arrive remove them from the port as they might draw the enemy's attention. If the port has no vehicles around it will not get attacked. So take them all to the south safe spots. If by any chance the enemy decides to attack there he will now not send more than 1 vehicle or 2 infantry units.
Repeat the orders till you got about 40-50 vehicles. Then move them to the west and attack from there. Enemy will see you and send everything on you but it will not be enough to take you down. When enemy tanks stop arriving take down the western turrets and escort a few engineers to the northern-west part of the map where the barracks mentiopned in briefing are situated.
If you are going for the points just destroy or capture the rest of the buildings before the objective is completed. Good luck and have fun! It takes a lot of time but it works.
this is where you screw up. you have to set up your defenses first and then build your army. i would build 5 groups of troopers and 5 groups of infantry and send them in. troopers against vehichles and infantry against infantry. i would weaken the enemies defenses and then from there get more harvesters and start building my base from there. you build the heavier vehicles LATER on in the game, not right away.
Hmmm, I remember playing this game in 1998 nad this mission isn't that difficult. Just keep defending and every once in a while you send out a strike force to attack his harvesters. If your units are weaker then you have to rely on cheer numbers.
Yo! What's up? I've been thinking about this mission a lot. It seems like all your building of forces is only to buy time. If a saboteur is available, keep sending them to destroy enemy base command. It seems like I beat this level pretty easily after I figured it out.5
ohhh gotcha. I knew that. for some reason the enemy always crushes me because their base is already built up and they're launching raids on me as soon as the game starts. grrr!
I like playing the missions, but playing last man standing against other human players is best. You quickly learn there the real key is not to obsess about attacking bases, but rather enemy harvesters. It's all about the spice/$. Claim spice fields, stick your havesters with lots of guards on them, send raiders out to go after enemy harvesters and wreck the other guy's income. His base will eventually wither away and you don't waste valuable forces trying to take it head on.
This Mission is possible but you've gotta act accurate and quick, after you capture the Starport you must take your troups and MVC back south to your base, then build an Defense of Gun Turrets, and place squads of Troopers and Light Infantry in front of them, not only they are cheaper but also efficient.
the 7 mission in the karkonnen was the hardest and the 8 mission in the ordos is even harder can not complete that mission yh the atreides was the easiest
I found Dune 2000 harder than Dune 2. The AI in Dune 2 was so simplistic that I could complete missions only losing a few men by confusing the computer by using walls and turrets. Unfortunately that doesn't work on Dune 2000. =P
This mission was a bitch. Thanks.
