Had fun last night guys we will have to do it again tonight. I need to figure out what the Arbitrator's rage does I was trying to use it and couldnt get it to work.

 

[KitFisto]

Yeah, it was a good time. We went 1-2 in public matches, but might have been 2-1 had BadMoon not died in like 30 seconds in the first match ....love ya Keith, but that was funny.

Those guys in the last match had a very good plan and once we lost Josh we were in trouble. I fought off 2 or 3 attacks, but the last rush there were just too many of them and Kain was off attacking them while I was getting killed off

 

[KitFisto]

Sure just LMK what time.

Where were you man? I sent you one invite and then you were gone and I didn't see you back on again. Kain, Josh and I had a pretty good time......BadMoon played 1 match with us, but his internet was acting up.

Yeah they were using two carpet bombs on the bases which would wipe out any defenses that you had and it also took out both of my scarab's.

Plus 1 guy did ALL Tanks and the other guy did ALL Hawk's. Two really large army's with both Tanks and Hawks was almost impossible to defend againt with no help. I did fight them off twice, but the 3rd time they came back I was toast.......Where were Kain? I needed help and you left me for dead

I was kicking the ^^^^ out of the red and black bases and hoping that one of them would fall. The black base was their money maker while the others where strictly military.

Yeah, yeah.

we should try that next time. Have someone just build money ( whoever is the base at the back of the map ) and have the other two guys build the armies and attack.

 

[kain4521]

We also need to play some skirmish with Moon and Josh that way they can get used to the controls and units.

Yeah, for sure. Poor Keith had almost no exp with this game or many RTS games at all. We will have to tutor him a bit to help him out.

Yeah I just tried to play the 4th mission three times. I die in the last two minutes everytime. I had to turn it off because I wanted to drop kick the system.

Yeah, that was a lot of fun. That second group we played was freaking nuts. I don't get how they had so much so quickly.

A new strategy I learned this weekend for humans.

Build a Reactor first, then 3 supply depots. Then upgrade your Warthogs. Build a Field Armory and upgrade Reserves. Then Fortress and another Reactor, because it costs less than upgrading to another one. Upgrade to Grenaders on your Warthogs and then build the ^^^^ out of them.

A rush of 20+ Warthogs can do a ton of damage. Then upgrade them to Guass Cannons as soon as you have the money for it. Works like a charm.

 

[BadMoon]

I have reached the scarab level. I had him surrounded by Warthogs and half of his health was gone. I could have taken him out but he kept shooting my base the whole time I was attacking him. My base was destroyed and I lost. Tried a few other times and can't figure it out.

 

[KitFisto]

Keith, make tanks....lots of tanks. Also build up your base defenses because they will counter attack your base as you get the scarab close to death. Make sure you research the can shells for your tanks as well. You fire them by pressing Y when attacking. They do much more damage than the regular shells.

I tried tanks instead of hogs but by the time I got them up there they were almost all taken out.

 

[KitFisto]

How many did you rush with and did you go after the power nodes? Ignore the nodes go right after the scarab. Also, don't just send them right in a line at the scarab. make sure you bring them up behind the cover that is around the map. There is a light ray that also shows you where the scarab is looking. make you go the other way away from it and you should only lose a couple of tanks making your way up there and still get a good 8 or so up there to bomb the crap out of it.

Also, once you're up there keep taking individule control of a tank that the scarb might fire on and move it out of the way.

 

[kain4521]

Once I get over the crud we need to play some more of this.

Yeah, I want that co-op achievement

Ok I will try that. I kept making sure I took out all the nodes first.

 

[KitFisto]

Just make sure you build large turrets at your base to defend it as they will counter attack. Also leave Forge and the troops behind to defend as well. ONLY send in your tanks to attack the scarab.
