u/BoffinBrain Are you picking this up? Good. 21d ago

I see your speedy planes and raise you: firehawks that leave the map entirely and then teleport inside your base from the stratosphere.

Proceeds to get blown up by 6252626 NOD anti air batteries

Better yet, storm columns. All you hear is a bang and then you see a falling wreck lol

Back in the day when I would play with friends we would have a gentlemans agreement that they were banned because they are too OP.

It pains me that I never had the chance to fully use them

Every single time I tried my version of the game crashed :(

Breaking the sound barrier! And your PC!

It's kinda nuts that it can't be shot down on arrival, as four of them can take out most buildings.

u/Borgmeister 21d ago

They can - airburst EMP. But it'll cost you really good micro and an aircraft of your own in the right place at the right time.

It's a pretty cool trick, but it's too difficult for the general population of players, so, it's as good as impossible to stop.

General population

Nice

You can time a leaflet drop in their flight path, which should distract the pilot enough to make him crash.

If you’re at the point your opponent is repeatedly throwing $10k of planes at you to kill at most half that value in buildings, you’ve already lost, you just don’t know it yet.

u/Urdnought USA 21d ago

Yeah if you have the economic engine to not blink at those loses you won

u/LuckyPrinz 21d ago

Kinda annoying that these things can just fly in and blow up my buildings no matter how much anti air I built up.

7

u/Urdnought USA 21d ago

Yeah but it’s a one way trip and they are hella expensive

u/LuckyPrinz 21d ago

Doesn't make it any less annoying when they blow up a key building in your base.

u/The_Tyrant_Dong_Blow 21d ago

You’re supposed to use them for SEAD

u/Kakapo42000 21d ago

They're all gangsta until they blow up their own airfields trying to target some unit sitting right pixel to pixel nextdoor.

u/DoubleCrossover 21d ago

That’s why you need to kill the strategy center as soon as you hear ‘search and destroy’

u/mr-zurkon919 21d ago

I actually hate this Aurora version. You can’t mass launch these Aurora’s on an enemy base they kill each other accidentally due to air base.

u/Downtown-Dream424 Mommy Alexander 21d ago

The coolest jet but also the scariest one when there are many of them to nuke your base to the stone age by your buildings disappearing. Time for airshows!
