my friend sam who plays as robo has apparently found an evil tacitc that cannot be beaten. he tested it on my friend ste who normally beats him and he told me that he got OWNED.
he refuses to tell he what this tactic is but says it has the initials HCELL
if anyone knows what this stands for and knows anyway to beat it i would be very thankful

So basicly your saying you and your friend sucks? lol
All tactics and attacks can be countered, they use artillery u use your own vs them or bomb the unit, they use a tank counter it with a tank or AT soldiers
And so on, there is always a way around a defence and an attack.
U only need find it.

My Advice is go play him a few times let him beat u for all i care but see what units he atacks with and so forth learn to counter the units/attack and and u will win... no one here could tell you how to win as its all down to you and you alone.

O and there is no unit for the Cyber gen or generals power that starts with or has in the name HCELL that i can think off, so the clue he is giving is a lie or in some form of code that only he would know o.O

[mbob61]

Yes the HCELL is a code
and me and my friend do not suck
my friend said there was absolutley nothing he could do and he is a really gd player.
i was wondering if u know of the HCELL tacitc or if its well known

I think its the heli + point defense rush:
The defences usaly target the drones first and the drones protect the helis from missles.

The only way to defend against that is to use AoE AA like SupW missle AA or use AA units that dont use missles and target the helis.

Its easiy to counter manualy target your aa on the Halos so they will ignore the drones and all sides have some form of AA that is not Missile Based so it only backs up my point about finding the flaw in his rush/attack and u win.

And btw if your friend is so good how did he not see what he was doing?
Did he play with his eyes closed?
If he had them open then he would have seen his helos and that there using drones.

well the problem is that moust ppl build a wall of defences but leave the core of the base undefendet. That alovs the helis to fly over the defences into the base.

[Phoenix911]

meh i always build some defences mainly aa (ie: gattling guns) in my base because the us have them annoying spy drones i don't want peaple spying on me

AA has alot of range aswell so even if u fly straight over u most likely will still be shot be something, and then there is the abilty to build mobile aa.
And lets not forget that if helos are in large groups close together shooting one down can sometimes take 3 or 4 down sometimes your whole force.

i hate those stupid things. lol thats a sneaky tatic.
i suggest you use radar vans more often.
plant them near your defence line and around your base.

[Phoenix911]

yer leechs are annoing but amazingly weak, As olli said use 1 or 2 radar vans and your be fine. (should be using radar vans from the start weather u think u need them or not.)
I always build radar vans and spam them around my defence line and 1 in my base, as i told olli and hiro to do in our game

[mbob61]

i was air and i used the spy drone gen power and put them everywhere with a stealth truck

i always do build them regardless. i was doing it before you told me.

i use radar vans when attacking as well and station them by the base. sometimes any way/

[Phoenix911]

funny how i told u that and u said yer i will... and i field'd like 3 before u and hiro got 1 hahah

[olli]

i was busy building dozers...to build up my defneces remeber?
i was being accused of stealing xp ! i was just doing laser general's job

[Phoenix911]

Laser generals job is not defence olli when will u learn this?

Hiro was SUPERWEAPON GENERAL lol.
I don't know how many times me and him have to stress to you that sw gen is the turtle general the one with the strongest defences.
Did u see your defences in that game olli? yours got all blown away hiro did not lose 1 defence site.
And me well i did not lose any defences because i did not bother building any u and hiro seemed to have built more than your fair share of defences lol.

[ApOcOlYpS]

I remember talking to one of my friends that one robo rush would be to get like 3 barackses and start bringing out leeches, while you get ur airfeild. Use the leeches to take out all the workers, and the air to blow up their barracks/war fac/air base. They'll lose before the game starts! Though the flaw is that with proper construction, your enemy can kill ur stuff, then you will be at an economic and promotional disadvantage. That is why I don't rush. I take my time, try to figure out what your plan is, and counter it accordingly with my hevy tank horde from tank gen. Though it usually isn't that big. But fun.

i was being sarcastic. i always spam defences to buy time in building my base. then get the might mithrlas in and build them back up.

[Phoenix911]

I hate rushing or players that only ever rush.
It shows no skill.
For example in Starcraft the Zerg can easily over run your enemy with in mins of the game starting But i hated that.
No point playing the game if the games over before it starts, even mroe annoying when its a game liek starcraft that has a many number of cool units and upgrade that u can't use because the games over.

[ApOcOlYpS]

It'd be nice if the tech upgrades would cost a little bit more and take a like another min. This possibly would make the earlier game units used more. Cause usually I just upgrade tech once and get the better units quickly. Though I guess that part of the reason is that I start with 100k. Though on multiplayer I start with less money.
