Because it wasn't meant for anti-armor. Also it has decent range, damage. You can say good bye to Hailstorms if the infantry spam is too near to them.

Buttal Fawtress.

Why waste cash on them instead of building more BFs and artillery units?

I think that America and Scorpion Cell were a bit underpower,I felt they are lack on unit that can face heavy unit like nuwa and battle fortress  ,anyway it is only my feeling

[Petya]

USA maybe. Scorpion Cell isn't. Scorpion Cell is the most threating if it comes to rush.

[X1Destroy]

And if rushing fail, you're doom.
 

Tyrant and Plague Splatter won't help you against "walls of tanks" anyway.

Plague Splatter is anti-infantry. Tyrant can do well if it comes to miner harassment.

Light factions have major disadvantage due to lack of fog of war in YR's engine IMO.

Yet Fog of War is entirely possible in MO! (Stealth Assault, that one Co-op mission with advanced gap generators, etc.)

 

don't quote me on this :S

That's just a regrowing Shroud. 

[Toveena]

Shroud =/= Fog of War

I think he wants to say that harrasment, sabotage and all that BS would work better if the enemy didn't see what's coming, because FoW. Similarly to how GLA take adventage of it with their fast and agile units in C&C Generals.

[Zenothist]

Personally, I think FoW is a great idea if implemented correctly. It could certainly add a lot more tactical play to the game.

I agree, but what would happen to the Spy stuff like the Spy Satellite, Spy Plane and the Gap Generator? 

 

EDIT: Nvm, I was thinking of the regrowing shroud, is FoW even possible to add?

No, FoW is bugged. It was available in TS but it caused random crashes in that. RA2 has it disabled.

[Protozoan]

Is there any point in using Siege Cadre for anything other than clearing garrisoned structures..? I pretty much don't need them at all as Pacific Front either, since there are Zephyrs, and 4 Black Eagles will clear a structure. less depending on what type of building it is.

[Atomic_Noodles]

Battle Fortress + Siege Cadre = 4 Shot Mini-Prism Tanks with better health?

 

Battle Fortress opens up infantry utility for the PF alot to be honest. Almost on par with the Centurion... but yeah

[Protozoan]

Yeah that's pretty good, Speeder told me about it after I posted this.

[Graion Dilach]

Other sides need it more, that's true tho, since they don't have anything else as T2 arty, but Cadre(+IFV).

[Petya]

Siege Cadres useless? Man, you've never seen a Siege Cadre sneak attack. That tactic is more efficient than the Ivan + Borillo combo. Furthermore Cadres are immune to dog bite and in big numbers they are infantry killers too.

[NutCracker]

USA maybe. Scorpion Cell isn't. Scorpion Cell is the most threating if it comes to rush.

 

Ummm...Borillos loaded with pyros and ivans?

 

I think that the 500 gold the chrono miner deposits is a bit 2 low when compared with Ghost and War one.

Your forgetting the War & Ghost Miners spend half their time travelling back. For Chrono Miners its just 1 trip. Allies also have the ore purifier which further increases the pay of refined ore.
