Nope. The Apaches and Orcas will be produced in the War Factory/Air Strip. And they'll have unlimited ammo.

all they really need to do is add a pad to the top of the war factory and add a pad to the bottom of the airstrip...

Try this, get a tank...any will do, i've used a mamoth.
Go right the way round to the obelisk, wait till it charges, then back up a bit.
turn the tank to the left to face the base, then move the turret to the right.
the obelisk should not be inview. if not, turn right again, move forward slightly, rinse and repeat as necassary... try this link to view how i do it.
View the image i made.

Blow it up

Just kidding, organize a small fleet of humvees that wont mind dyong, while one of yas runs in and C4s the place

keep the humvees close to the base of the Obelisk so it cant hit you, anf guard it from engies

you can usually survive a hit by the oblisk, sometimes with armor left depending on the character you bought for the armor. on some servers i noticed that i get killed in one hit but it doesn't happen that often to me. if your in a vehicle you will survive as long as the players on that team don't slow you down. just remember that the oblisk has to charge inbetween each shot (just like in the original c&c for those that played it.)

"Behold, I tell you a mystery!"

Enter the NOD side tunnel, take the first exit to the right. Have at least 150-200 armour and your ion cannon beacon ready.
Now run at the backside of the monolith up to the entrance of the hand of NOD. Never stop or care for anything. Approach to the pedestal, deploy the beacon, change to your gun and retreat to the back of the building, shooting any incoming enemies.
The ion ray will not even kill you at this position, as you wait for the win screen.

That's the way to get behind the obelisk!

I can past it without getting hit or blowing up the laser.. first you enter the nod tunnel , take someone with you to secure the tunnel or maybe if youre lucky there is no nod player in it, walk down and you see the power plant in front of you, walk/run to the rock fast and hide behind it, wait 2/3 secs and use A And D (you move left and right) and some jumping and you should be able to dodge the beams(maybe it needs some practise), you can get to the Power Plant, Hand Of nod or the rifinery, if the laser hits you , you lose some armor i dont know how much but i think 100+-, or you can use a apc , and drive into the laser and get out the vecile run into the obelix place some C4 , Timed C4( on the master control) and its destroyed, and some proximity mines at the entrance of the laser , so ppl cant get in and disarm your timed c4 <---(hotwire)

i dont agree with it To win it like you sayed placing the beacon the pedestal, the server must have the option "ON" thought you could see the options by press the button L in the game, and dont forget using D And A to move left and right you have more chance to survive the laser beams

Usually I just run like mad jumping and strafing around to avoid the laser beam. First I run from the tunnel to the small rock there, the obilisk will start charging as soon as it sees you. Hide behind the rock for little over a second (let the obilisk finish it's charging sequence while you behind the rock, otherwise it will still shoot at you). Then the obilisk just tried to fire but couldnt, now you have a short while since the obilisk has to start over recharging, now just run like mad jumping and strafing around, if you move enough you'll most likely still get hit, but only take about 50 dmg. As soon as u can get behind the powerplant (or wherever you going) so the obilisk cant see you. Then you just start placing all those c4's and ion cannon if you have one to blow **** up.

It's tricky, it doesnt work every time (certainly not when lagging). The obilisk insta kills any infantry on a direct hit so all you can do is jump around, run like a little girl, and pray.

"on some servers i noticed that i get killed in one hit but it doesn't happen that often to me."

Yeah, noticed that myself (but last night on a kick arse sever I was not able to do this, no lag either /shrug). I can almost always make the Powerplant run with Hotwire only loosing the outer armor (100), pending its noobies playing and the rock area isnt mined. (If thats the case then I just go repair vehicles and or blow harvesters untill im dead...then if their are mines, i might just take a regular soldier and make a suicide run, usualy by that time there is alot of action and peeps dont realize you have blown their mines.)

Anyways, back on topic...oh wait, that was the topic, the ob doesnt run W/O power hehe.

Hotwire says, "BOOOM BABY!"

why run directly at the power plant and be left with 50 health by the time you get there?... its easier to just run for the wall of the hand... then wait for the obelisk to finish charging you you have a free run at the refinery or the powerplant, both with a risk of health being shot away, or just turn around and go into the back entrance of the hand o nod... then your set... you can just blow the hand(like ive done soo many times) or blow the powerplant(which i have done sooo many times)... then leave the hand o nod and runn for the airstrip... then if your a poor engy/hw with no place to go... wait for the next flame tank arrives and flame RUSH!!! use their own tactic against them... even easier to destroy the airstrip since your already there... in a successfull run you can leave them with only basic infantry... hahahaha... heheh...

It is not that difficult if you have teammates that are willing to sacrifice themselves.
Sneak into the tunnels as Hotwire. Sneak behind the rock and crouch. Wait.
Have teammate drive vehicle through the main entrance to the base, obelisk will fire, now RUN into the powerplant. Place 2x Timed and 2x Remote C4 on the MCT. Wait for the Timed to blow then blow the Remote. If someone should enter the powerplant and spot you blow the remote, hopefully the timed will not be far behind. Should kill the power and thus kill the obelisk. 1 sacrifce = easy team victory at that point.

At that point you should have a ton of cash, buy whatever you like.
My preference is buying 4 MRLS for my team and 1 for me. Cheap and extremely efficient at base destruction. Go for the airport next then it is all gravy at that point.
