land forces slip by....
« on: July 14, 2008, 01:15:04 AM »
enemies keep bringing land forces right past space stations and space units directly to ground, which gives me problems because if they capture i lose my space station and it is very annoying, so how can i get this to not happen if it is possible???   -_^

That's the Rebellion, they can use small (2 or 3 unit) raid fleets. Just pay more attention to ground defense...

I hate raid fleets and the rebels as well, especially when they use their artillery which is too overpowered

Tbh, i like the Raid feature.  I mean, it is the sort of tactic the Rebellion used, and by letting them invade without having to engage the powerful Imperial fleet, balances the game better.

it's toomonotonous though. i find as empire, anaxes always gets raided by han solo, a MPTL and a speeder and the occasional T4-B.

if you know that particular planet always gets raided. build some turbolasers and garrison some troops.

it's true that rebel ground is too overpowered. they usually bring Garm, few MPTLs, perhaps a speeder or two and with those they always decimate my forces, no matter how good they are.

somehow, the ai use garm flawlessly, but whenever i use him, it acts like a nomada rig and doesn't fire. once one TL cannon is destroyed, you'e fucked. plus, you'd need at least 2 AT-ATs to defend.

well, i can get one TL to fire, but the second TLD doesn't assist unless it's horizontal to the target which takes too long and makes it vulnerable.

it's not a glitch, the reason only one turbo fires at a time is because each turret has a certain firing arc, they dont swivel 360 they can only fire in front of them

You just have to be able to use him to his fullest effect.  I just use him as a beefed up transport. 
I also think the raid missions should be more like the corruption missions and not allow the rebels to take control of the planet.
But courage which goes against military expediency is stupidity, or, if it is insisted upon by a commander, irresponsibility.
