PLANETRAY ASSAULT CARRIERS

[KoG javy52]

Does anyone know how to beat planatery assault carriers without superweapons, teamwork, or leading them into an ambush

It depends who you are using.............if you are GDI or NOD, you're basically ****ed unless you mass a ****en load of anti-air and mammoth/stealth tanks.
If you are SCRIN, the all you should really ever do against another SCRIN player is make all stormriders. It sounds cheap but its extremely effective against carriers. Make sure the line you base with defense tho because stormriders are cheap and you usually have at least 20k left over after making your fifty. Storm collumns are your best defense in Command and conquer 3.

yeah i figured

If you GDI, then try APC's with Rockets(around 15-35), have the APCs target the PAC (Planetary Assault Carrier) itself, and the rocket men will shoot the planes coming from it, that way you dont take much damage (maybe lose 10 APCs). If thats not working then just try Mammoths or AA's.

As NOD, the Stealth tanks can do a lot, and if you defend with a lot of SAMS then they wont hurt you at all. The sams are much faster then the PAC Planes, and shoot them out quickly, leaving the plane without any defence but an Ion Storm. You can take out 15 PACs with 10 SAMS (Had it happen to me yesterday!)

As Scrin just use the cheap tanks, the first 2 you can construct are strong against either Infantry and Air, or Tanks and Air. So not much to worry about, and if your still havin trouble try building a PAC of your own or some Storm Coloums.

 

[KoG javy52]

alright that sounds better

 

[Gunslinger1616]

SCiN's missle battery is more effective against carriers, because it doesnt upgrade them with the ion storm.

If you know PAC's are coming, build an effen load of batteries, they are a ton cheaper, and quicker to build. If you dont know whats coming like usual, then go with storm columns.

Gunslinger is excatly right, forgot about the batterys

 

[Gunslinger1616]

of course im right, i dont lose with scrin

 

[KoG Almighty XS]

unless your against me, then you loose with scrin

if your GDI you actually have a good chance. What you can do is build a ton of mammoths and also create some battle rigs. The rigs will launch rockets and heal any vehicle you have. At the same time your mammoths will be attacking with rockets to so the carriers have little chance. Also build build a ton of AA flak for those pesky ships coming from the carriers.

 

[KoG javy52]

yeah but it doent take long to kill those rigs and they cant take out enough for it to matter

 

[Gunslinger1616]

hahahah who uses a ton of carriers against GDI NOOBS =)

 

[KoG javy52]

everybody and I have only lost2ce and every other time ive won with gdi against the carriers

 

[KoG IT]

What ever u do though do not choose nod against the carriers. They have no good vehicles and the anti air can be takin out very swiftly. but the do have the cloaks which i still don't think will help

 

[KoG javy52]

dont worry bout it
