 You can kill a drone with another drone and your drone still lives!  Its hard to do, but with practice, you can do it every time.  Find a patrolling drone.  With your drone, target the patrolling drone.  JUST BEFORE it moves in range, have it move back.  It will slow up, come to a stop, and as it is turning around, the enemy drone will be in range.  Your drone will FIRE as it moves away.   The enemy drone will NOT fire and even if it does, since you are now moving away, you will OUTRUN its missle and IT WILL DIE!  With one drone, you can wipe out a drone army doing this.  hehe.  This is the same method you use to kill a harkonnen missle tank with a laser tank.


The fastest way to kill a fremen worm rider is a flame tank. 3 Flame tanks will kill an entire worm in about 3 seconds.  The worm will not be able to kill a single unit.   If you are harkonnen, make a few flamers and you will not need to worry about fremen worm riders munching you down. 


The Disappearing Mortar

Have a problem with a ton of deployed mortar?  Run a single fremen at them- get right up next to one- all the mortars will fire, make sure the fremen moves out of the way immediately (dont let the fremen fire!)- the mortar infantry will KILL THEMSELVES because when the mortar hits in the location the fremen was - which was right next to them - they will all die.   muahahah.  Your fremen, meanwhile, lives.  When I am dealing with a large mass of deployed mortar infantry, i like to take one fremen and run along them on the outside- keep the fremen running along the edge, they will all be firing and killing themselves.  It is hysterical.  Watch The Video!  (windows streaming media - make sure you watch in full screen mode!)  Special thanks to IxianMace for providing the Mortar sacrifice.  You might be asking yourself after watching this:  "Why dont you just pick them off by shooting them?"  The answer is because what if there are some enemy dust scouts nearby?  If so, you might kill one mortar, but your fremen dies.  Now, after watching that video, imagine we have a blob of 15 deployed mortar with dust scouts and gas nearby.  Imagine running your fremen right up into the blob, until it is visible.  What happens?  Well the dust scouts instantly fire on you, killing your fremen.  But the 15 deployed mortar ALSO FIRE, killing the 15 deployed mortar- sometimes even nearby dustscouts!! It is a worthy sacrifice.

 

An elite mongoose has an incredible firing range.  It can fire as far as an elite Mino!  Click here to see.

 

It takes 7 dustscout shots to kill another dustscout.   Big deal right?   Yet it takes 22 dust scout shots to kill one lvl 2 dustscout!   woah!  Gives you some good motivation to promote your dust scouts in an ordos vs. ordos match.  Watch The Video!  (windows streaming media - make sure you watch in full screen mode!)

IxianMace has a lvl 2 dust scout in this video.  I am using a group of 10 dustscouts.  I run in, fire a shot with all ten, then fire another one.  It still is alive.  Amazing.


 

And if you think thats crazy, wait till you see how one elite Ordos APC can run circles around a Massive Line of 13 Minotaurus!  (other than Caryalls, elite ordos APC's are the fastest units in the game- able to chase down any unit- even drones.)

The most powerful ground based attack is a Worm Charge.   Make sure you take a look at it!!
