I read some of these threads and theres 1 thing I dont understand..why do u guys make multiple warfacs so early in game? Whats the purpose of them..

[[-BA-] Piscinex]

Each additional War Factory speeds up tank production. So you'll have more tanks than your enemy.

thx didnt know that

[riz]

theres no point having them if yer economy cant suport them so make sure ye got enough money to make continuous tanks b4 spending on extra warfs.

slaw owange 11 wfs on DH vs me yr :o

[CorsaiR]

normal ore, Ra2:
4 miners = 1 war
5-6 = 3 wars
6-7 = 4-5 wars
7-8 or more = 5 or 6

[AntiSocialMunky]

You also have to factor in what's practical depending on the map, if there's lots of cash or not. Like DP for example...

[willy]

he wont know what DP is

Dune Patrol is a small map with only standard ore (6 patches, 3 on each base)

similar to DuelFS on TS minus the cliffs/bridge/blue tiberium

if you get that

[Noorodin]

yer I get it thx..so basically the idea is to get a good cashflow and then build more warfacs depending on the ore that is left :/

btw duelFS was a firestorm map and not TS

and what maps do u play..can any1 give me a list?

[willy]

what game are you trying, ra2 or YR?

[t3h J3w]

u catch on fast... major classic maps r
-heck
-country swing
-dry heat
-blood feud
-dune patrol

[willy]

think hes playing ra2 which only has CS and heck, unless you play the maps i have of dune for ra2...

[nt_ra2]

heck
country swing
lil big lake

theres more im just high.

[AwaZ]

normal ore, Ra2:
4 miners = 1 war
5-6 = 3 wars
6-7 = 4-5 wars
7-8 or more = 5 or 6

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

Ehh... no ?

1 miner = 1 war (ofcurse)
5-6 = 2nd war
7 = 3rd
9 = 4th
10 = 5th

You don't really need 6th war on most of the maps, only map I can think of is heck

micro your miners better then

[willy]

it wasnt that just my base kept getting owned and i was only just alive for 20 minutes

[AntiSocialMunky]

Happens to me all the time too.

You could go for the old block base where you put your buildings next to each other as to form a solid block of buildings. You used to do this in the old RA2 days so you could plant a prism cannon in the center of your base and not build walls around your CY. Never really caught on as it just makes tanks able to kill your base faster because you're all clumped together. Might work for a cramped map like that since you can't expand well anyways.

Ye Old RA2 *sigh*... When everyone used to wall in their CY and stretching was unheard of...

[t3h J3w]

good to wall mcv when repacks off

ESPECIALLY VS PREP :lol:

[willy]

u dont need walls to beat prep, just watch.

[I_Care]

I engied him at the same time he engied me once, but i still lost =(

[t3h J3w]

After coming back from a break i played prep. B4 we were about even, but now hes one of the top players most likely. We played tourny b and we had about same tanks but i was rusty w/ tc and he got navy for dreds. GG

[willy]

prep and top player don't belong in the same sentence.

[AntiSocialMunky]

He's a nub buster ain't he?
