Does any else think that the lancer looks like an elite from halo holding an energy sword?

I think it's a strong reference to it (the rules code also suggests so), and someone pointed it out already

It used Elite model converted into sprite from PPM before Nolt made a custom one. The new model, however, was made to look similar to the old one for some reason.

Can easy challenges be made so they are actually easy. I just tried the water cube challenge as the wings of coronia and a last bastion ally. It it topk me 2 hours to build a defended base and to destroy the Soviet base only. Allied con yard destroyed. Foehn base had signal inhibitors.
Plz make easier!!!!

I'm usually the one that complains about difficulty, but I think the challenges are challenges because they were meant to be challenging.

[Handepsilon]

Challenges are more like a modified skirmish really...

And Watercube is one of the hardest

I thought Watercube was hard.

 

But then I just spammed boats and I did a lot better. It's a boat challenge, why did I not spam boats earlier :/

 

If you spam anti-air infantry and defenses you can laugh at a Harbinger attack. Put some anti-armour near the ore fields to counter magnetrons and marauders. Instant impenetrable island fortress. 

 

Just rush boats and take out superweapons as fast you can. 

 

There will be a lot of losses. Possibly some crying. But it works okay.

I started with 50000 credits and took all the crates

Watercube is meant to kick your ass. Esspecialy in mental AI mode.

[Handepsilon]

Actually Mental AI mode made it much easier. The China and Pacific Front base were so tight for Mental AI to accomodate that they were late to reach tier 3.

 

 

It really is only just making it more annoying with more Crazy Ivan, Rocketeers, Clairvoyants, Coronian fleet and Leviathans (as well as earlier air raid) but other than that... the pressure is considerably less.

For Inhibitors you use other tactics. As Allies, Epsilon and to some degree Foehn you can sneak spies into their powerplants or engineers into their tech nuclear plants, then strike with SWs as inhibitors are offline. As Soviets you just survive until T3 and send a few Kirovs to eliminate missile bunkers and the enemy base on Soviet side because even 5 flak cannons are hardly enough to stop one of them. In the meantime send Borillo with Engineers and capture everything you can to expand easier. After that move the remaining Kirovs into Foehn base and level the powerplants, then finish off the rest with either conventional forces or air. Alternatively, you can use fleet as all 4 factions, blobs of Pirahnas can shot down Harbinger in 1-2 salvos due to their ridiculous damage output.

They didn't take long in my case. I suppose that depends on luck a bit.

And unsc, I suggest you watch my video on watercube Mental  AI which I did SOLO. It could help you out.

[UNSC THE CHILL OF WAR]

Are the challenges at the top of the list easier?

[BlackAbsence]

Water Cube is very easy with PF.

Just (1) Chrono sphere Battle Fortresses across water & (2) Suppressor Naval forces and strike Iron Guards with Aircraft Carriers.

Edit: I suggest a challenge mission where you have to fight a bunch of Centurions with Cyborg Prototypes, Nuwas and three (maybe four) Nuclear Silos.

Multiple Centurions will constantly be made. Some will attack but most will defend. I imagine it'll be easy when massing jets so I suggest there be a bunch of Sentinels too.

The Ai would also use a bunch of Wall Buster Missiles to annoy the player(s).

 

Maybe there should be challenge missions themed around each faction, kinda like how this one is themed around China.

A Chinese Challenge?

Been there done that. Let's see

- Qilin got buffed into firing 4 mini nuke shells and faster than Bulldog
- Nuwa Cannon has triple its' speed and 5x as wide radiation range. Explodes in Tactical missile explosion.
- Centurion gets radiation radius like Nuwa and 2x speed, explodes in Nuclear Missile superweapon, also blows your nearby flying jets.
- Eradicator uses Krukov weapon.
- Cyborg Prototype drops and uses irradiation MG.
- Wallbuster is a mini nuke
- Tactical Missile strike EMPs

etc. etc.

If that's good enough for you, I'l fetch the download later

You forgot to mention the Sentinels that basically denies all air units in its range
