When do I get Bombard Pits and Tiger Tanks?

Post by Revelo »

This is a simple, trivial question, just one that really confuses the hell out of me. But basically when do I gain the ability to build Bombard Pits and Tiger Tanks?

I'm asking as I spent most of my Warzone playing the PlayStation version back and forth, inside out so I can recall a lot about the game, my first experience of Warzone on PC was version 2.2, so a bit of a leap forward in terms of versions. I am currently up to Beta 7 on 2.2 and am enjoying the new changes. but i distinctly recall from my PlayStation days that I should have the Tiger Body and the Bombard pits by now. I say this as back on the PS I did a memorable Beta 6 mission where I blew up the power planet, had to return to the LZ and managed to get my Heavy Cannon Tiger Tracks back with 1 second to spare.

Now the gap between my last go at it on the PS and downloading 2.2 does span a few years, so either I really have forgotten whats going on, or the jump from 1.0 to 2.2 really has thrown up more surprises than I can spare, or I have found some subtile bug, although i do say the latter must be really really unlikely.

So does anyone know when exactly I acquire those two technologies? I have had Mortar Pits for ages but have been using Bombard Hovercraft though, and no disrespect to the Python Body but Tigers are just awesome. I know this is a trivial matters but it's just something I have picked out.

EDIT: I did consult the tech tree but it didn't give me anything. I am asking about the missions where I acquire the technology

There is a tech tree you should look at, then all will be answered.

I think it is in this thread: viewtopic.php?f=3&t=2277

If not, I am sure someone will tell me how wrong I am... :P :)
and it ends here.

i was wondering if it would be a good idea to put a new tab in the heading - clicking that tab will automatically take one to the tech tree pages...

home / faq / user guide / tech tree / development / blog /forums / trac.

doing that should / will give new and old alike a simple easy way to go there... instead of reading the whole forums to find out the info.... :3 :3 :3 :3 :3 :3 :3 :3 xD

He's asking about campaign, not MP. He mentioned that in his PM to me, but he apparently left it out here.

Heavy Mortar - Bombard: Arizona 8, when you need to take out the New Paradigm's Research Center Base. You must proceed to LZ2 before attacking their base.

Collective's Heavy Body - Tiger: Urban 10, when you need to estabilish a safe haven to Team Beta. It's on the base which have some VTOL Rearming Pads and 3 deadly Hellstorm Sites.

Thanks for the info on the Tiger body :)

What about the Bombard Pit? I have the Bombard itself and have used it on my tanks, but I don't have the pit itself. Still stuck with Mortar Pits. :(

Campaign doesn't use the same tech tree.

The Bombard Pit will only be already available in Rockies 1 (Campaign 3)

Collective will still have Bombard Pits and you are limited to mobile artillery only with Bombard.
