Troop upgrades and weapons
 
Hey huys.Well here you talk about anything related to DC and troop upgrades and weapons.So feel free to say whats on your mind ?

Which weapons do you find effective against anything when is large numbers ?

commander_reaper September 12th, 2007 09:52 AM

grenade launchers, earth shaker cannon(on the bas),inferno cannon(on the hell hound) and the mighty bane for ig.

Junk angel September 12th, 2007 01:30 PM

well, as weapon-unit distinctions got reduced since dow, everythink has it's uses.

jjust looking at marines

hb - high range high dmg
flamer - dancers love weapon
plasma - high accuracy on the move
rocket - well self explanatory.

Exoskeleton September 12th, 2007 10:04 PM

Wait ,plasma high accuracy on the move ? Doesnt it say low accuracy on the move ? High accuracy when standing still ? Thats what I read in the description.

You noticed how some ppl for example dont use flamers at all or even if they do they use only like 1 flamer per squad ? I tried something new...I had about 10 SM squads with fully upgraded flamers....man you should have seen that.I was laughing my ass out...I was facing like a whole swarm of banshees which got screwed up in 1 sec.....all squads went to 0 morale and even SM basic weapons killed them fast....Try that and ure gonna laugh like crazy.:rofl:

SteviEboY September 13th, 2007 02:42 AM

I always give my scout sqauds at least one flamer. Does wonders.

Exoskeleton September 13th, 2007 03:30 AM

Yeah I can dream off it.Who doesnt use flamers does not know how they work.Rofl for example if you have 5 sm squad ...give them all bolters lets say and 1 squad give flamers....enemy squads will instantly go to 0 morale.rofl......

I just havent figured out.....does Terminator dual flamer work as 5 normal flamers or....?

superfabioofdoom September 13th, 2007 03:36 AM

ok here is what i like to do when playing into the breach
depending on the enemy ill either go plasma gun's/hvy bolters on my marines and sit bak and shoot the piss outa shit.plasmas monster marines/chaos marines and tau cus there all hvy infantry if eldar/orks/guard ill go hvy bolters cus they smash em and ill make 2-4 scouts invisi and give them all flamers and when the come running through the breach the flamesr trash there morale and then the hvy bolters/plasma's open up..... oh yer :p

Exoskeleton September 13th, 2007 03:39 AM

Nice one.

Also try using for your Marine Squads 2 HB and 2 PG and 1 Flamer...
ZOMG.....PWNS ANYTHING.....especially against a race who has mixed units suck as orks or eldar.....

Thats my addition.

But I like your tactic.

Junk angel September 13th, 2007 11:40 AM

10 flamers, unless he was crazy you'd be dead.

Flamers are nice, but only in t1, t1.5 then most races get nonmorale meelee troops. and or will deploy from vehicles

and unless that eldar was stupid, he'd falconed in the banshees for shouting and harlequins for kissing

BMANN1019 September 13th, 2007 12:05 PM

Hey wraith, for added fun, use entanglement, it does wonders with that banshee/quin combo. For ig, some say it's good to have squads equipped with the g launcher and the plasma, but i say diff. Have maybe 2 squads of guardsmen and the kasrkins with plasma, in the front line, each of them with a priest. Behind them, have maybe 2-3 guardmen, whatever you prefer, and give them the launchers. Trust me, it'll work wonders.

Exoskeleton September 13th, 2007 12:14 PM

Since IG are weak as hell I once lost almost all troops when some guy dropped that chaos thing on me....whats it called I forgot...that shit the Sorcerer has...his basic spell....and Ig died like flies.

BMANN1019 September 13th, 2007 12:18 PM

What, doombolt? Yes, ig are very weak, which is exactly why i have priests with the squads on the front line. I also shove commissars with the groups that have the launchers. With the Summary Execution ability, they start lobbing out grenades like hell, which keeps enemy troops pinned to the ground, while the front squad can deal out the majority of the damage. And if the front line starts getting attacked, i just use fanaticism to keep them alive.

Exoskeleton September 14th, 2007 12:10 AM

Nice tactic ,Im not retarded.Who does not priests and commisars is ....well............insane ? Just dont forget that this tactic can be fucked up by any enemy artilery weapon.Basilisks do good,whirlwind especially,defilers so so.....and Fire Prisms pwn them.:lol::lol:I laughed my ass out.

BMANN1019 September 14th, 2007 12:46 PM

Oh, i know, but it's not like i wouldn't have my own tanks to deal with them. Oh, and here's an interesting question. For the HW team, what do you guys usually pick, las cannon or the auto gun?

And too screw the artillery, or any vehicle, just use Curse of the Machine Spirit, and they won't last long enough to do any serious damage.

Junk angel September 14th, 2007 01:48 PM

*cough*

before 1.2
actually a priest + harlequin could have killed a monolith together.
But not anymore, since the new curse only stops the units.

Exoskeleton September 14th, 2007 01:54 PM

I pick las cannon for my HWTs.Everybody thinks they are good vs vehicles only but they do fair(ok) damage to inf too.Fast rate of fire is good.

Dude in a box September 15th, 2007 10:28 AM

One of the best combinations to have on a marine squad is 2 flamers and 3 plasma, they have similar range and it works wonders against most infantry units, morale or not

You can not even quote properly ! It seems like you are just a 8 year old kid who is mentally retarded. :mad:

commander_reaper September 17th, 2007 08:54 AM

what it is possible to have a wirless keyboard and uaslly they do make alot of grammer mistakes.
and what if i wanna quote my way is it illegal to do things your own way.
and im actaully 15 and i may be metally retarded and please mate what have i done wrong??? i really dont know why you had a go at me in the first place

Ha,there you go again.Even I have wireless keyboard and I still do not make any mistakes at all.
And do not call me mate tommy boy ! :mad:
And by the way noob means a person who does not know how to play good/properly.Who sucks as a kid.So basicly you are a heavy NOOB since you think grenade launchers do real damage to anything.

Go home and suck a tit.And go play Need for Speed Carbo which I think you also suck at. ! :mad: NOOB ! Danny Boy !

Watch where you step !

SteviEboY September 17th, 2007 08:59 AM

Girls calm down please. This isn't the place to have a bitching spree, wouldn't want to see both of you get banned .

As far as I was aware a mass of Grenade Launchers is excellent in the early stages due to it's knock down ability but later on it's IG plasma mass ftw.

chapter-master-ultrius September 17th, 2007 09:03 AM

You are also a noob as reaper is ! Grenade launchers do jack to any powerfull units,....even a swarm of weak banehees canīt be stopped by mass of launchers.

You are a noob my friend.

commander_reaper September 17th, 2007 09:04 AM

ok i wont call u mate only tryin to be nice.
ok then. i actually do know how to play if grenade launchers didnt do eny damage they wouldnt fuckin be there am i right??

no thanks some of us arnt sex driven maniacs who go out lookin for hoes. and i think i will later thatnks for that idea and i dont play online i only do the cars up for the fun of it.

and i dont take games souirsly like some people do and make names up for people who cant play right or are any good some people have there levels of play some of us dont sit here all day and fuckin practice evey day of the year
and become pros

SteviEboY September 17th, 2007 09:06 AM

If you took time to actually read what I posted I said 'early stages'.

A swarm of banshees would be fairly difficult to beat with 'nades as they are a CC orientated unit. And with FoF they are difficult to dodge. But a single squad would get whupped by a 'nade mass.

I think you're just being argumentative for the sake of it.

commander_reaper September 17th, 2007 09:07 AM

god mate ill film it put it on you tube and ill give u a link and u can watch it if u want so i can prove your wrong about them. or are u a man who dosent like to be wrong about things

chapter-master-ultrius September 17th, 2007 09:07 AM

How lame.If you do not tend to become a pro you can just sit back and die in your little apartment in Hampshire ! Jerk.

Games are not made for bitches like you....:mad:

chapter-master-ultrius September 17th, 2007 09:09 AM

Exoskeleton is a bitch who does not know to control himself.That is why he got banned ! Since you hang out with idiots like him that makes you one also ! The only thing he did good was say things nobody woud ever say.He had balls.Not I can say the same for you tommy.

commander_reaper September 17th, 2007 09:14 AM

It is your fault your fucking parents are getting divorced.Since their son is a complete loser wasting his time here and dying writing replies here !

At least I was last online several days ago.I do not spend every day here as you do.

Noob.

Vasili September 17th, 2007 10:21 AM

Yes but when you do spend time here you constantly and maliciously try and disturb the peace.

Honestly buddy if you've got nothing nice to say then don't say it at all you're just trying to stir up trouble for no reason, reaper's been a nice guy to you and you just throw it back into his face, people like you make me sick.

Also do you put "noob" at the end of everyone of your posts as part of a signature to the post?

-DIAB

chapter-master-ultrius September 17th, 2007 11:45 AM

Did I put to your post a NOOB ? No I did not.I played with Commander Reaper many times DC but this is not my DC name so he doesnt remember me.

He is quite a noob.So you dont actually know whats this about.This is personal from the past.Long time ago.Me and him.So you better stay out of this buddy.

BMANN1019 September 17th, 2007 12:13 PM

Alright, chapter-master, and commander-reaper, both of you shut up. Nobody gives a flying fuck of who's a noob or who's a dumbass or whatever the hell you guys have been calling each other. If you have an opinion on something, then express it CALMLY, there is no need for all of this senseless bickering or yelling at the others. So, for whatever mentality you guys still possess, take some time to relax and realize that you're fighting over an opinion, which is just ridiculous. Alright?
