Halo Wars Hornet Strategy - on HEROIC

[bananasrgoodlikethat]

I've had hawks out in only 11 min researched in 9 min

[halogamer566ify]

arbiter kicks ass and prophet sucks his dick

[superzak9]

how do you defende against hornet rush

[themikester06]

yea sometimes if u play on heroic if ur against the covenant they cheat alot

[shadowmike75]

I beat a guy playing as prophet with this. The poor guy figured that as I was sgt forge I was going to spam tanks. So he decided to prevoke this through making hunters, possibly the worst anti air unit from the covy lol. It was an entertaining game and ended in a bit under 10 minutes

[Lesliejustkidding]

The AI usually doesnt really build any anti-air units/turrets usuallly...

[Zurb0n]

it thosent work... the enemy never made a shield or vampire... thas very boring.. do it in legendary to create the perfections in your strategi...

[UberSky]

You shuld be able to get a max army of hornets in 7&1/2 minits :)

[kosterbryan]

its better to use forge cause of the suply pads. the hornets are easy to get down. For starting pps: USE THE BRUTE RUSH. i did it till skill lvl 35 with a succes rate of over 95%

[twaits35]

try with the odst when one dies send another one down

[The10thKenpachi]

u need to scout to see what the enemy is doing. If i saw u had an air pad and nothing else i would build anti air immediately. play a person, heroic ais r good but people r better. turrets r only good if ur playing defensively to get points. u always want to attack. the best defense is a good offense.

[The10thKenpachi]

if the enemy builds anti air ur fucked. also if u love air units play as ander, hawks own hornets.

[RFCLeader]

Want a good tactic? Check out my Halo Wars Tacics video on Warthog rushing.

[MinuteMuIe]

theres one more thing that cutter can do which is the elephant rush. its countered easily if the other guy recons you, but its fun to use if you're bored

[williamcharlie04]

cutter is great for an odst strike but NOTHING ELSE!! although i am undefeated with my odst rush even on xbox live.

[youkid001]

Wats ur Gamertag? mines BloodierRORY

[ZSN1P3R]

i think its better to use andres for hornets u can upgrade them to hawks which its a lot better..tho takes lots of supplies...but the economy bonus is great, forge will be great too but NOT CUTTER

[KHallesy]

this was before the game game out

[FINALSALVATI0N]

Never build turrets that early on in the game, its a waste of supplies.

[runnaWorkman]

this game is a fuckin knock off of command and conquer

[xdragonx35]

dude this game is NOT a fuckin knock off

its called an RTS game

there are a bunch of them

DumbAss

[fpbologna]

ye, doesnt have enough units to be CnC knock off

[Youta143]

Forge hornet rush! KICKS UR ASS 3 MINS U GOT HORNETS

1. 2 pads

2. 2 reactors (patience the supplies come. REMEMBER TO GATHER)

3. Air pad

By this stage you have 1000 resources you are 2 and a half mins into the game probubly unless u failed and you can make 4 hornets there and then Congrats.

4. Build hornets

5.KICK ASS

[Th3A1chemist]

dude thanks i won like 8 games in a row

[georgieman393]

i have a question

is it best to upgrade on units/vechicles/air vechicles and then buy them, or is it best to buy them and then upgrade them?

[Dr4k3fullOn3]

Buy them first. If you won't the enemy (wheter A.I. or human) will attack you and theres a big chance they will kill you.

[tenchu44]

yea you have to buy because ive made the mistake of upgrading and i lost

[georgieman393]

wow thx ill keep that in mind :D

[Blizzard00]

i think ill try it with anders ... except taht i wont do the turrets.. i can use the 500 resourses in other stuff, may save a few minutes, also ... im training in anti rushing with warhogs i think the best are the gremglins XD

[Superkid10a1]

I actually have an improved Hornet "rush" stragtegy for Professor Anders:

1. Build 3 Supply pads and upgrade them

2. Build a field armory

3. Build 2 reactors and upgrade them

4. Once at tech level 3, reasearch Reserves and Reinforcements from the field armory

5. Begin training Hornets

6. Upgrade them to hawks

7. Rape the enemy base and army

Hope this helps!

[goyos117]

okay.... hahaha i may use this

[noobkamal]

lol thats not a rush any more, by the time u upgrade everything the enemy can just kill u easily by doing the marine or warthog rush

[kubel83]

correct, but he actually says,at 2:20 that it's not really a rush cause it takes like 8 min, so he kind of admit that.

[Col0nial]

hey just a hint for online play when ur done collecting resources w/ ur warthog (or ghost,etc.) u should send it to their base to c what they are doing. Generaly, if they have a lot of suply pads and a military building, they might be rushing (as thats what ethans base looked like too). Its key to know what the enemy is doing before they do it.

[ChaseMan95]

would it be better to have forge or anders?

[VGamerJoe]

Cutter

[SizzlezMacDaddy]

* * * * * 5 stars (PS I recomend using 1 space for the upgrade thingy so u can get 40 peeps)

[SizzlezMacDaddy]

lol thesee tactics take so long i dont call them rushes, i call them slow swarms

[USMCommando]

Tried this out just for the hell of it, and it worked very well. I'll have to use this sometime for real! Thanks!

[Omega04271]

make ur next video a gather recources upgrade lot of ur main infrantry so u have ur "power unit ready" for whatever human guy u have

[Finchy7965]

your vids have helped me alot

[TheUprisingNinja]

also a plus of hornets is that elites cant attack them

[Charmancer]

Is it possible to do a Vulture rush, they are my favorite for air combat!

Scorpions are my favorite for ground combat, the Spartans are my favorite soldier wise.

[sandemon101]

its a supply pad not a supply depot

[MeanBacon]

sounds to me that the AI in this game is pretty retarded...

[XACOUSTICMONKX]

in the demo, the hardest is heroic. in the actual game there is legendary, and there is quite a difference

[Khemistry101]

I hafta agree. I got pwned in a matter of minutes AFTER repelling a rush.

[feedmepork87]

is it just me, or does this look turd?

[Lrdvltr]

To feedmepork87: Just you jackass.

[azorazan]

its mostly bout the quilaty of youtube itself. the graphics of the game are pretty good. some envorormental graphics are not really well detailed but most players got no trouble with that.

[butterfing3rs]

'the warthog is here for some reason'

[YouGoomba]

These 'strategies' really aren't difficult to do...

[kelymac]

don't you hate when the computer is a douche and send the prophet over to your base right away?

[defiler15]

try human on human. its pretty epic

[TheFuryl]

I used this with a mix of some scorpions.

[EthanCaineDotCom]

Nice...probably have to take over rebel base though.
