[@Skelezig]

Wow, I didn't think it was possible to fight your way through the base. I just built 8 Vertigos, bombed the Flame Tanks and the two Air Towers, built up about 7-10 Venoms with Spitfire Laser and timed Vertigo bombing on the patrolling Avatar and killed it with the Venoms. Then I trained a Commando and a Saboteur, air lifted them into the base in front of the Temple of Nod and killed the Fanatics with the commando before I captured the Temple. I also made sure to expand to the Blue tiberium field at once so I could repel the ongoing attacks while getting a good economy. Once Kilian's troops were mine I just force attack clicked them all to attack the GDI base and sent the Vertigos on a suicide mission against the Ion Cannon.

[@calvinwheatley7315]

Destroying the base is the easy part the hard part is to defend you base (knowing this game you think it would be the other way around).

[@floricel_112]

@@calvinwheatley7315 eeeh, considering the uber avatar you got for this mission, defending your base from ground attacks is nearly trivial. As for air defense, either do what Kilian did with air turrets all around or invest in a few stealth tanks. DON'T invest in rocketeers as the venoms will just tear them apart if you have too few. Everything Kilian destroys with the bombers, rebuild immediately closer to the center of your base, as a more centralized base is easier to defend as your air defense don't need to be so spread out. For the *actual* offense, build an air tower and 4 vertigo bombers, then blow up Kilian's two air towers. Now you have all the time in the world for the bonus objectives

[@schmoe879]

Not once in this video did notice a major air attack. The moment I took the base over, I was being hit with bombers and the venoms, then the first wave of attacks from her base was 6 mechs, 6 flame tanks and a few other troops. I replayed the saved point to make sure I had the count right. I was so weakened by the air attacks I didn't have enough funds to foil the ground attacks.

[@hdw]

15:42 4 vertigos + 5 venoms. 16:01 6 venoms + more attacks which i didn't capture

[@tickoman273]

it's a surprisingly difficult mission if you can't pull off cheese tactics. I have inly ever done it by using vertigos around Kilian's hq, but defending against all the crap is hard. Also the crates south of your base saved me :D

[@hdw]

I have another video how to complete this mission for 9 mins: *kzbin.info/www/bejne/eYKYc6mApNyFjck*

[@CuriousMind477]

Yeah this is not at all how my battle went. About 30 seconds after I took control one of my refineries got bombed, and so I built bombers to that out their air towers. While I was doing that I set up defenses at the front that did not help at all when the AI sent 6 Avatars and Flame Tanks as well as assorted other troops and vehicles.

[@hdw]

Watch how to complete this mission for 9 minutes: kzbin.info/www/bejne/eYKYc6mApNyFjck

[@calvinwheatley7315]

Ok what you want to do is to build an airfield build two vertegos bomb the airfields and while you are doing that build an emissary to the blue tiberium then build a hand of nod and train lots of rocket squads and lots of defenses. The thing that is tricky is you don't have to much money so doing this is barely possible and don't build air defenses it's only wasting money follow those steps and it can make this level easier. For shits and gigs my time was 28:26

[@legend8202]

Man, when I play this mission myself, the AI IMMEDIATELY hits me with vertigo bombers on my refineries, resource starving me before bombing everything else... along with sending constant commandos and armies of avatars, scorpions, and flame tanks... Even when I put up anti-air, the AI just spams vertigo bombers... Now I wonder why they don't spam as much here?... AI is weird...

[@hdw]

Try this strategy: kzbin.info/www/bejne/eYKYc6mApNyFjck

[@legend8202]

@@hdw Yeah... I watched that video of yours and I tried it to amazing success! Although, doing this mission the legit way seems to depend on the AI. If it derps out or not... Or if it decides to vertigo bomb you right off the bat!

[@bleep410]

@@legend8202 yeah ive been wondering how this mission is possible, maybe the AI got updated because as soon as i put down 1 anti air turret node thing a few seconds later vertigos start bombing my refineries constantly. Sometimes the AI bugs out and stops making vertigos and sometimes they just keep making them and im just screwed with the 5 -6 avatars coming in every few minutes. Even if I survive I run out of resources and can barely do anything.

[@legend8202]

@@bleep410 Yep, it definitely comes down to the AI I feel and their level of aggressive right off the bat. If the AI is too aggressive, then the only way to beat the level is by using the cheese way. Which is moving your MCV as close to possible to the temple and building turrets next to it and then building a Hand of Nod next to it! Also I feel you on that, comrade... for me, the AI did exactly that... End up getting resource starved and crying... But I think it could be possible though... But it would require destroying their airfields swiftly and then using war factories and stuff to amass a constantly being repaired army. Not sure how well going turtle mod would work out though...

[@mr_lemur_1747]

I know this video is old. But I just wanted to say. If you mass cap the Avatars, and hold on defense. Take out the Airfields up top. You can mass the engineers, and because the engineers are so tank and fast you can mass capture everything, including GDI Side, probably send a hundred to their deaths. This only took half an hour btw.

[@GianMakka]

I just beated this mission... by accident? I tried rushing lazer venoms but evetually was overwhelmed by the AI's attacks, so I sold everything but the air tower. The venoms I had were just enough to clear the avatar wave, and then... The attacks stopped... the AI kept building units but only sent commandos on repeat. I farmed heroic status on all venoms (this took about an hour) and managed to clear the anti air around the temple. By then, the AI had built around 90 avatars so I just one clicked GDI

[@0oSCHMILLENo0]

I don't understand it. When I take the base I have like 30 seconds before they start attacking me with air non stop. That doesn't happen in the video. Why?

[@legend8202]

It could be the simple possibility of the AI being... weird? You either get brutal, ruthless AI or derpy AI...

[@floricel_112]

Impressive. That casualty ratio is almost as high as mine

[@kennypooser]

good video, but your really doing it the hard way. build vertigos, destroy the temple and all of her troops are yours. you can complete this mission is less than half the time.

[@damiangroen]

kennyp not all difficulty levels work like that, my man

[@Tiberiumreaction]

I've finished this level on the hardest difficulty several times, and I can say for a fact it does work that way. 25 minutes, tops. Though, I do respect this guy's diligence. Very thorough.

[@damiangroen]

L00ks like i was wr0ng

[@devilmug479]

I found that the easiest way to capture the temple of nod is to use the catalyst missile on the temple to kill the fanatics and have at least 2 vertigo bombers destroy at least 4 of the flame tanks in front of the temple. Last, air drop 2 engineers close to the temple and good distance away from the other flame tanks. If one engineer dies then at least the other will make it. All of this has to be done in fast pace or you will lose. But it works. Better to capture the temple of nod so you don’t have to build one.

[@hdw]

Good one!

[@xanderkand]

wouldnt the cloaking field support power have the same effect?

[@joeroganpodfantasy42]

On hard difficulty I did it this way actually but I set up a second base near the blue tiberium to take map control, used around 10 stealth tanks and what I had to stop the first attack, then in the second attack i had enough predators stealth and missile to stop their predators then i took over most of theirs and started the march towards the silos and the enemy base, after that second attack it was won, but it didn't come as early as in this video thou I don't know why or if i remember correctly. Even had my commando to fight these avatars. I think because I went captured the blue tib as a base and its towers the ai played more defensive cause i was in 2 positions, it was pretty easy , and enemy attacked me only when somehow my harvester went to the silo and met them, i dont know why it went there cause we had plenty of tiberium at blue If you mix the troops up missle flamethrowers beams and predators it works pretty well. But predators and stealth tanks do most of the job, after taking killian I just moved around with the huge army almost forgot i had a nuke used it on the airbase last second

[@arsenal4life870]

weird, I did the same setup but ai attacked me from back door!!! AI seems to exploit the weakness of my setups

[@holdinmcgroin8639]

The saboteurs seem to walk very fast this mission

[@mourguesguillaume5702]

What a subversive mission, when we know that we're no loger allowed to call that rock "Ayers Rock" since fiteen years, bur "Uluru". And we're no longer allowed to climb on it since 2019, because the Arborigen forbid it becaus of the "spirits". The Nod did better while building a base on it !

[@IAMSTEVENYANG]

You should upgrade your guys with flame tanks and others to make them strongers

[@Until_It_Is_Done]

Man the amount of idiots saying "You should of done this/that to make it easy"... he's already made a video on the easy way that took 9 minutes. This is how to do it the hard way, as stated in the title. What so hard to understand about that? 😂

[@sisibelle9768]

no way! this is hard level!

[@calvinwheatley7315]

if you can survive the first wave the rest of the level is easy so keep trying don't let the game win.

[@roush26]

Those Obelisk are too expensive, you were better off building Avatars and reclaiming them with engineers after they fall.

[@hdw]

Your advice works only for easy and medium. You need to capture Avatars and build Obelisks to survive on hard, or simply let the engineer inside the Temple and finish this mission less than 10 minutes: kzbin.info/www/bejne/eYKYc6mApNyFjck

[@xanderkand]

@@hdw if you build a couple of war factory in front of your base and stand your avatars around it to repair plus a few beam cannons behind you dont need obelisks and your units dont die so you aren't wasting money repairing and rebuilding obelisks but really your'e much better off defending an expansion base at the other side of the blue tiberium then you have plenty of cash and a base prepared to repel the GDI assault. Also you can permanently station venoms at the northern tiberium to reduce frequency of attacks by taking out Kilians harvesters but i think it might only work to stop the bombing runs. venoms can also be stationed above the airfields to destroy vertigos while they rearm but occasionally this attracts bikes and stealth tanks if they arent well positioned

[@xanderkand]

also if you must build obelisks build power plants in front of them to protect from direct fire power plants are a lot cheaper but the AI will usually try to walk around the power plant to get their shot which gives your obelisk more time to kill them. war factory has more health than power plant so you could combine these strategy with avatars in front of a war factory in front of obelisks in front of beam cannons which can power up your obelisks for extra range and firepower for a very solid defence
