Something interesting about that: Dreadnought when it's ready to fire, the missiles were armed. If it's on idle, it's missile still unarmed. And when it comes to a desolators radiation, the dreadnought with armed missiles would sunk first than the idle one due to the radiation exploding the missiles.
Actually, it's not technically the radiation killing the ships. It's the missiles they're trying to launch blowing up in their faces repeatedly and quickly

In older (pre-YR) versions of RA2, there was a funny trick. Deployed desolator could be forced (ctrl+click) to attack the ground. Then he was still irradiating the ground, but with firerate of his regular attack. After 5-10 mins of such irradiation, land will become poisoned forever. After more than 1 hr after the desolator was killed, it was still instakilling infantry and light vehicles.
Fun fact: "It will be a silent spring" is a reference to Rachel Carson's book that criticized excessive pesticide use and led to the ban of DDT in the US.
@@ShaddySoldier This is why brothers and sisters shouldn't procreate. Polio is caused by a virus. We administered vaccines and polio became a non-issue.
The fact that the desolator can destroy the missiles of the Boomer and the Dreadnought is actually very nice and also has a bit of realism: the electronics of the ballistic missiles would be fried by the intense nuclear radiation that the desolator spreads while deploying.
The scorched earth tactic. You can do it multiple times to increase the strength and I once did it till the ground turned white. Not much could run through it
And now luckly in Mental.Omega, we can play Desolator in every faction. Espically Latin Confederation, Catastrope Tank combo desolator. Too broken for me! Edit: 3 Communist Sub faction*

The last one was the best. I discovered that too while testing with Dreadnoughts. But it seems that you forgot to include aircraft carriers, rocketeers, Kirov airships, Harriers, Yuri space saucer and V3 rockets (results should be similar to that of dreadnoughts, but the launcher truck gets rekt very soon). Anything that is briefly on the ground before taking off. Hornets get destroyed after taking off and landing in high radiation, within a few sorties. BTW desolators also make suicide bomb IFVs like the ones made with crazy Ivans, but more expensive. What about battle fortresses? A comment mentioned flak track desolators, that'd be nasty too
I remember one time I was super bored so I got 30 desolators and deployed them at a chokepoint. The screen hurt my eyes so much, but it was funny watching tanks just blow up.
To the last Clip, you can also DMG submarines, Dolphins and octas with this radiation field. Set a desolator Close to a teslacoil or an Prisma Tower and you get some sub-serface farming
I love Desolators when I was kid I used to make lots of them and scatter around the map usually on the gold ore places and routes enemy units used until I had enough to command all them on the surrounding area of enemy base to make this radioactive ring of death around it only British snipers we're able to defeat them but I solved that problem quickly by scattering few Yuris and placed those snipers to be on lookout on new upcoming enemy snipers from their barracks
I think there was a bug in original RA2 where you could tell a deployed Desolator attack the ground near them. That would apply their radiation aura multiple times, so even one desolator would create a long-lived area of death even for tanks.
First how you record ra2 because modern recording programs like OBS can't capture old games or not all old games but ra2 is one of them Second: What are these strange maps? And how can i get them? Could i get a reply before next year 😂?
Use emulators; Wine is one. There's also the option of using Parallels (to run Windows from within/alongside Mac) or Bootcamp. Basically, you need Windows-emulation one way or another.
desolators in ra2 are some of the most overpowered units out there, with only a few of them none of the special infantries like tanya or boris can do anything to you. in ra3 the desolators are basically useless
I do remember for a long time before the patch but deploy a desolator and then force attack the ground a ton of times ans basically outside of air units could attack apocalypse tanks would die

The fact that you can stop the missiles with one desolator is so helpful.
But you should get close. Peninsulas are critical locations to put the desolators

@@Bullminator true, though their only true enemy is sniper and viper ☺.

Same
Me too!

Only if I want to bully easy/medium enemy. If it's against my friend or brutal I wouldn't even have the thought of using Iraq. 😅
Love their breathing
I always loved sending a bunch of desolators within a flak track into a mass of mirage tanks then deploying them to take out all of the mirage tanks.
The fact that the desolator can destroy the missiles of the Boomer and the Dreadnought is actually very nice and also has a bit of realism: the electronics of the ballistic missiles would be fried by the intense nuclear radiation that the desolator spreads while deploying.
Love how all the Lines of the Desolator is the title of the acts xD
Except one which I couldn't resist not adding!
My favorite quote from them is "There goes the neighborhood" it just sounds so mocking also "Spread the doom" and "Ready for meltdown" are really good
This is what bush is referring to when they said iraq had weapons of mass destruction.
The scorched earth tactic. You can do it multiple times to increase the strength and I once did it till the ground turned white. Not much could run through it
I mean I just used them to stop engineer rushes, but stopping missiles before they can launch looks useful too.

And kill all of the zombies as well

As long as something melts, I am satisfied.
To me, desolators are walking satisfaction generators.
Does that missile trick work with the ones shot from the truck? V2 was it?

Use emulators; Wine is one.
There's also the option of using Parallels (to run Windows from within/alongside Mac) or Bootcamp.
Basically, you need Windows-emulation one way or another.
Check out c&c online and see if they have any info
