Depends on the map, but if It's possible to kill real quick (Before the first harvester dump), I'd go with the refinary. If not, than the barracks/hand of nod, because I think infantry are the differance betweeen victory and defeat in Renegade.

Yeah. Enough expensive infantry can kill off beacon covering vehicles.

Refinery first, then don't pointwhore.

i go for the pp


same here; that way, they(the enemy) get double costs, slower income, and no base defence, which outweighs taking out any other building.


but if there were the ref, war factory(strip and wf) and a soldier factory(hon/bar) then i would take out the soldier factory

nah, j/k. Depends on the map, and how the game is being played, but if I had a choice..

On base defense maps -> the PP definatly, disables base defenses AND doubles purchase costs

On non-base defense maps -> Refinary, having no money can really cripple any team.

I'd say power plant first on maps with defenses and War Factory/Airstrip on maps without defenses. Much easier to overrun a base when they don't have heavy armor defending it. Though in all cases it's nice to destroy the Barracks/Hand first since it still contains the pedestal and they can't just abandon it to defend other buildings like they can with anything else.

I generally prefer to toy with my enemies. If I get my way, I try to destroy the WF/Strip and Hand/Barracks before any other buildings, even with base defenses. Then the Power Plant, then the defenses (if any), then the Refinery to finish them off.

1) PP if playing a base defense map.

2) Ref if at the very beginning of a map.

3) Hon/Bar if they have a lot of money.

4) WF/Air if all above are false.

I love being on Walls_Flying when the enemy Bar/HON has been tagged. The rest of the game is just a matter of target practice. Smile

i prfer the tib refinery as its normally near a tunnel, you can send an engie in to blow it up without getting shredded by base defences. the other team will become defencive and therefore wont earn any credits by killin ya, therefore wasting away to standard infantry.
this is different on a map with a tib silo of course, i'd choose to blow up the power plant on one of those for the same reasons.
and yes, they normally have the pp near a tunnel on a map with silos. well...... most maps....

I would definately blow up the PP first. Then I'll take out the Ref. They can't purchace anything if the price is doubled and they don't get cash. It's an effective combination. Very Happy

A mistake some people make is destroying the Weapons Factory first. It's useful at first, however there are tonnes of downsides to it.

Firstly, the team will eventually come together with some anti-tank weapons: PICS, Ravs, Gunners, mobius', you get the idea. A whole team with weapons like those would be able to tear apart tank rushes and air units.

The other team will get desperate. They'll start buying snipers to take out the infantry. However, it's likely that the team without a WF would have a couple snipers on their team as well, which would counter that.

The third point is that killing the most expensive type of infantry will only earn you 100 points. However, a pack of infantry shooting vehicles would gain more than that. For example, minigunners. If soldiers shoot a stank with their rifle, they're able to get TONNES of points, while the tank would only get 2 or 3 points for killing the soldier.

So I conclude, if a team decides to kill the WF first, there is a good chance the other will win by points.

If you're playing a game with a time limit.

I generally play marathon games because I believe that a team with a genuine advantage shouldn't lose just because they weren't harvy-whoring the whole game (not always the reason, but I'm trying to make a point). But you do make a good point if you are playing games with time limits.

The Hand of Nod/Barracks and the Weapons Factory/AirStrip since what's the use of having money/power if you have nothing to spend/use it on?

They can still get beacons. Your team can still lose.

Sometimes I get the ref first. What's the use of Hand of Nod/Barracks and the Weapons Factory/AirStrip if you don't have any money to spend?

What'S the use of a Reff/PP if you can't spend your money for vehicles/infs? Big Grin

And Beacons, its very hard to get with only standart infantry througt base defenses espacially for Nod the AGT kills like one to three dozens of soldiers.

If i have the choice to destroy a building i blow it up. No matter what it is and what it does. But if I can choose my target because all enemys are away i usually blow pp or ref... on walls as GDI sometimes even the HoN ... no SBH's Sakuras in this map are a huge disadvantage ...


Thanks.

Just be wary about leaving the BAR/HON intact. Try to take it as early as possible.

If you leave it to late they will base camp and destoy anything that you bring in.

Helos are dead by snipers, tanks by Sydney, soldiers by Moby and so on.

Oh dear!
