    Not many know about this, but UEF have drones that can build any tier of structures on their own, even experimental. You can find those in upgrades to SACU's. They also have really good build power on top

    First tip is great and very timely you mentioned it as I was building a transport as UEF to drop a recently lost island in a game a few days ago. I had 5-6 stingers so stopped myself because I had nearly forgotten that mechanic.

    3 things i would like to add, 1: the Atlantis experimental carrier can store aircraft submerge and then re-merge to send out said aircraft, ie a sneaky air assault from the sea presuming your hostile don't have sonar. 2: tip 1 can be coppeled whit the t2 gunship transport ie load up t2 gunships whit any land unit (field engineers if you want to be sneaky) load up into the atlantis submerge the submarine carrier move close to hostile base (or behind) re-merge launch aircraft unload aircraft bamm you just assaulted land from below the water, 3: i believe the t2 field engineer's cloak field work while being transported allowing for a cybran like sneak transport attack.

    Strikers dropping engineers around is really useful in mid game when you may not have a full transport handy. Wish the Broadsword had this ability too.
    Great point about no direct-fire experimentals, although the Novax is close.
    Learn to back up a Fat Boy using a chain of move commands slightly behind - about a quarter of the length of the Fat Boy. That keeps it pointed at the enemy and firing even in retreat rather than disengaging and turning around.
    The Billy is good for attacking incoming enemy divisions - as long as it doesn't have any Loyalists 🙂but if you have TMD near the commander - and you should - then that will shoot an incoming Billy nuke down.
    And IMO the most underrated unit is the Sparky - it moves faster, it has higher build rate, it's cheaper than an engineer, jams radar, AND offensive weapons? Great unit! I usually produce one T2 engineer and three to four Sparkys to assist it; then I use additional Sparkys to scavenge reclaim.

    The Mavor is one of those things that I always think is so cool- it basically just wins you the game on its own if you finish it- but the build time is so astronomically long that I never bother, even when I went though the campaign as UEF I never bothered. It makes the build time for T3 Arty look instant!

    • @amzarnacht6710
      @amzarnacht6710 2 роки тому +6

      I always toss one t3 engineer on building one as soon as I get to T3. By the time the real end game begins it's just about finished and can start pounding the enemy base.
      It's not a terribly good experimental, to be sure, but it does hit incredibly hard.

      I consider the Mavor too good! I disable the weapon. I'm not a fan of the long range weapons that have no counter, or protection. Shields don't work with the Mavor. Even multiple shield fail with one hit.

    Ghetto Gunship = T2 or T3 transports loaded with Mech Marines (T1) can be devastating in groups.
    The T3 Battlecruiser (Neptune Class) is made to deal with T2 and T1 ships and absolutely wrecks them.
    I use Percivals (T3 Assualt bot) as defense for a Fat Boy when assaulting a base. Plus the Fat Boy can supplement by building more units.
    The UEF has poor attack/defense against submarines. In a long draw out battle on a water world, you will need to build a few Atlantis' experimentals to counter enemy subs, especially vs Seraphim.

    • @mee091000
      @mee091000 5 місяців тому +1

      Lmao a T3 transport filled to brim with Mech Marines sounds hilariously effective. The Shield will soak up tons of damage and your DPS would be SIGNIFICANTLY higher with a maximum amount of Mech Marines in the transport. It's like a Tech 1 Experimental lol.

  • @Paulunatr
    @Paulunatr 10 місяців тому +2

    UEF military doctrine reminds me of the Imperial Guard in Warhammer 40k. Underwhelming in direct combat, but they earn their wins through good logistics and heavy deployment of basic fighting units to keep the enemy occupied while the big guns in the backline pound away. The more time they have to dig in, the harder they'll be to dislodge.

    @TheDiplomat27 2 роки тому +4

    Nice tips. I love the T3 point defense. I like to use them as an offensive weapon. Basically, I will forward build 2-3 T3 point defenses within range of an enemy base and watch them shred the base. I use my land units to provide cover while I build the T3 point defenses.

    • @amzarnacht6710

      Don't neglect T2 artillery... they're cheaper, build faster, and have better range. Not great against fast moving ground targets unless you've got a bunch of them, but for telesniping bases they're scary effective.

      Also, the UEF are the only faction sporting the T3 transport, large to ferry whole heaps of stuff and essentially a combatant in its own right.
      UEF aren't the only faction with a T3 point defense. I consider torpedo launchers point defenses too, and Cybran have T3 torpedo launcher. A particularly nasty defense tool.

    You neglected the utility of tech 2 arty in your defensive line. They shoot further than the tech 3 PD - for all factions. Having them behind the PD line will make approaching your base **extremely** costly.

      I main cybran, but in general I always get at least a couple t2 stationary army's because yeah, they're a must have for defending your base as pd isn't all that great, and cybrans do especially well because their artillery is meant for carpeting areas and damaging large armies, not taking out key locations.
