Gather round everyone here's the best, most efficient way of stopping a shadow team rush. DRONE SHIP!

I was shadow rushed on barstow while moving my drone ship down to the center tib and what happens next made me rofl. My drone ship knocked his shadows out of the air, like how an mcv would run over regular infantry on the ground.

Here's a couple screens i took when i watched the replay to illustrate what happened. Watch in order

You can rename your lastreplay.xxx to whatever.xxx and you won't lose it.

The easiest way to stop shadow teams with scron is to make sure you space your power plants out. Spreading buildings out will make it harder for your NOD enemy to micro his st's to kill your power plants or what have you. Another thing to remember would be Defense structure placement. Uness his shadows are in the sweet spot, there is really nothing you can do because the AI for this game is so poor. Hope some of this was helpful to you.

1 Seeker = $ 700
1 Gunwalker = $700
Killing a Shadow Team rush with a Drone Platform = Priceless (literally)

There are some things money can buy, for everything else thers Tiberium.

It would be so hilarious to have a large force of venoms in no attack mode get mowed down by a drone ship.... laugh.gif

Not true! I was playing Loki's TS remake map and someone blew up my MS in mid air when DP passed "through" it.
So it does kill MS

EDIT: I wonder if you can have heroic drone platform????
