Huh, a Tyranid. I'm ready to bet 5 bucks that he will be the group buffer. Maybe healer, but the SM already has that down.

Or it could be a Tyrant Guard or something, and be the group tank.

Yes, totally makes for exactly the same games. Laughing Empire Total War plays exactly the same as Command & Conquer. Laughing In fact, they are the same games with different models and textures. Laughing

What's with the BS defense missions..in early defense missions I had no problem taking out 100% of enemies..yet later on even if I kill everyone I'm getting like 65% and its only filling 2 notches.. or 38%.. I'm getting a little tired of losing bonus deployments over this.

You're not forgetting to actually go out into the map and drop beacons to gain deployments, are you? On each map there are usually 1 or 2 bonus buildings that need to be captured before the mission is finished.

Or am I barking up the wrong tree?

No, you are correct. In previous missions, if you capture these buildings, you these various bonuses in defense missions. Smile

No. he's barking up the wrong tree. I've already captured all the bonus buildings. The problem is I'm in late game. Around day 30. Doing side missions to level up and get gear. Various factions are attacking those buildings so you get "defense missions" like "defend the array".

The problem is that in the beginning after all 4 waves, I'd always get 100% kills by not moving. They'd rush in, I'd kill them, that's it. All my squads would survive, I'd do it quickly and get 2 bonus deployments for the day.

Now, I do a defense mission, kill everyone, no one falls and I'm getting royally screwed. Last defense against the nids mission, I defeated all 4 waves, killed them all, pretty quickly and it reported 65% (which makes no sense) and only filled 2/5 pins (which makes even less sense, I should have gotten 3) and then the time (which was like 6 minutes) only got me 3/5 pins. I ended up missing the bonus deployment by a single pin. Properly giving me the 3/5 would have done it.

I can't figure out how I don't get 100% enemies killed anymore on about 9/10 defense missions. I defeat all 4 waves, no one escapes, and I'm only getting 2 or 3 out of 5 for the foes killed. I've even tried going out and killing the random map enemies they have. Every time I do that it seems to make it even worse.

You only get small percentages because you need to explore the map in addition to defending. There are enemy bases which you can kill for extra kills. I usually leave two tank units to defend in the buildings, while explore with the force commander and an additional unit. Smile

How am I supposed to know if there are bases or not? I still do some defense missions and without leaving the point I'm defending I get 100% (like the last one I did against the orcs)

Probably when you don't get 100%, you have not previously captured the extra buildings (black icons on the map).

I'm not sure if it counts enemies that retreat, as killed. They don't always return for me either.

I already said that I've captured all the extra buildings. They've been captured for days. It seems cheap to put small groups of enemies on the far side of the map during a defense mission and require you kill them.

I don't usually let them escape.

Only time I've had a problem with kills being under 100%, is if a few enemies retreat. Never have they spawned at the other building when I've only captured one of them.

I've started sending out a squad or two and finding concentrations of enemies on the maps. It seems they're spawning groups of enemies out there for some reason, but it is pretty cheap. I just did an orc mission where my assault squad killed tons of them away from the defense and I still only finished with like 60% kills.

Yeah, looks like they're going for the same strategy as DoW1, that game had about three expansions? If they're all the same quality as Chaos Rising and the main game, i'm gonna buy it like i did with the beforementioned.

Woot for expansion!

They need to flesh out Last Stand more though. Like up waves, up levels, newer items, more classes, etc.

I'm a big fan of Company Of Heroes and Warhammer (both Fantasy and 40k). So I thought I'd finally give Dawn Of War a go and bought DoW2.
What a let down Sad felt more like an arcade than CoH. It's still good, but I was hoping for something similar to CoH only with Warhammer units Sad


shitloads of new stuff in my pc. Cant keep track of it all.

Just getting into regular MP actually. I bought Chaos Rising for two friends since I needed someone to practice with before I could step out into the real game. Cause the last I tried I didn't know squat and my teammate was raging.

This latest update bundles everything together to avoid needing previous patches, however due to size issues (1.5 - 2GB) the 2.0 update and 2.1 hotfix for the game to be Mark of Chaos ready isn't included.
(I'm pretty sure both are present in the released version of Mark of Chaos however if they're not you might need the patch #1 or something from a real group to get those files.)

Ah right Chaos Rising, what's Mark of Chaos then?
