The Great Warzone Forum Battle

[WarTux]

This is a fun little forum game to test our knowledge of weapon advantages and disadvantages. Heck, we might even find some balance issues along the way.

Rule: T1 Units Only

*gets army of HMG-mantis-tracks*

[alto1234]

hpv scorpion tracks + howitzer scorpion hover
you said t1 units only, but you're using t2, so i might as well

[Saberuneko]

Army of Cyborgs.

[Black Project]

Army of TMG Viper Half-Tracks + Machinegunners

BP

[macuser]

i'll build and army of mini rocket viper halftracks and flamer viper wheels

[Black Project]

*begins spamming Medium Cannon Cobra Half-Tracks backed up by HMG Cobra HT
Don't ever think that cannons suck at NTW, they rock too if used correctly & backed up

BP

[macuser]

quickly builds 2 sensor tanks - sends them to the front line (backs them up with mortars in the back (the flamers and mini rockets are in middle))

(note: i can build more flamers and mini rockets than you can cobra cannons - they cost less )

*Wooooossh*

Nope, HMG, Mantis, and tracks are all T1 technologies.

ZOMG ultimate phosphor bomb bug VTOL spam

No T2 tech allowed.

*gets army of machinegunner and heavy gunner cyborgs, makes mad rush for sensor and army* *all mortars fire at one cyborg at once, easily killing it but wasting their reload time like the dumb arty tanks they are*

Yes. Yes they do.

actually in trunk this is fixed the arty allocates the ammo to kill as many units as possible

anyhow, there are 2 sensor tanks - in 2.3.5 it would kill 2 cyborgs (not that it would make much difference )

[Jorzi]

phosphor bombs are t2?
Hard to remember correctly, last time I played with t1 was about ten years ago...

[Zarel]

Nope, HMG, Mantis, and tracks are all T1 technologies.

Balance-wise, Mantis is T2.

Try it. Start a T2 game. Mantis will not have been pre-researched.

[WarTux]

Whoops. In that case I make it HMG-Scorpion-tracks.

*gets army of Mini-rocket Viper half-tracks*

[macuser]

moves entire army towards wartux's base
starts bombarding defenses - just a little bit out of the defenses range

[WarTux]

With what units? That's the point, this is a unit battle.

*spams MG and lancer borgs*
