Its way old news that on Islands GDI can hit the Hand of Nod with a MRLS from behind the Barracks. Thanks to ACK though who pointed out that using ALT fire with the MRLS causes missiles to fire out of only the left bank, and in a straight line....this altfire technique makes hitting the HoN even easier, and even 3 mrls's can fire at it at once if they position themselves right. This strategy is probably old news to most as well...but hey this is a strategy forum and old news is new news to newbies

Does that alt fire per chance have any homing ability. I only ask, because there have been times where I have seen a missle curve directly towards me. Once was as I ran around the back of a building. It was a spot where I know the MRL could not have specifically aimed at. Another time on Hourglass, I was standing by the obelisk when an MRL lauched a bunch of missles at me (I was a sniper). They were heading straight at me, so I ran up to go inside the HoN.. intending to avoid the missles. Nope.. they curved to head straight at me as I ran up. I thought maybe the MRL driver was predicting where I would run, but the missles where heading perfectly straight until I starting to run up the HoN ramp. It has had me puzzled..

LoL... Nod can hit the wep Fac in a similar way. Three or four Rocket soldiers or Ravesaws can stand on that ramp and fire through a hole at the Wep fac.

I find that 90\% of the time GDI doesn't win because everyone is trying to aim for the HoN and expect everyone to defend the base lol

Its fair enough. GDI has a chance of destorying a building. When they use that chance GDI loses the ability to build more tanks cause they are wasting em tryng to destory the HoN. Not to mention Nod gets points for repairing it. This is really balanced people don't understand that though.

(Still Islands) A few days ago I was a stealth (ya I know so ego) in their base waiting for the "right" time to nuke the ref. Then this guy jumps out of his mammoth, and start repairing it, I get in and start shooting up the siegeŽng MRLS Those chickens got what they deserved.
Its a nice way to rack up points

Are you trying to emulate your hero? The other one on this forum who has this obsessive compulsive thing about spelling?...
