^Depends on the player. You can usually estime their skill through the game mode, their stats, and their gameplay so far.

Seige Engines are only godly once they are INSIDE of your base.

SEIGE ENGINES ---> LINE OF DEFENSE ---> YOUR BASE
This is good.

SEIGE ENGINES ---> YOUR BASE
You're screwed.

SEIGE ENGINES ---> YOUR BASE <---MORE SEIGE ENGINES
You're REALLY screwed.

So, the conculsion is that Siege engines are not rigged, but a mere miscalculation in maintaining a strategy.

Siege engines are very,very, very powerfull, but not at all un-beatable. Other units, shuch as chims and frosties are very very powerfull as well.

So yeah, some things are imba... if siege engines work, they own. If the enemy beats them, your kinda screwed.

Agreed.
The biggest disadvantage of using them is the fact that they are Attack only. No defense, except against air or towers.

  1. They cant attack ground units.
  2. They are slow, to move them across the map to a enemy base, all that time they would be getting pounded.
  3. They take a long time to build and cost alot.
  4. Because they are slow, and cannot attack ground, then enmemy could kill all your other units, and base hide. Since they are so slow, the enemy could kill them as they slowly look for your base.
  5. They have building-type armor, so any siege is good at them.

If those are disadvantages, why not look at other races with the same siege attacks.

1. Each of them are slow.
2. Only the Humans have more siege units than any other races, I think.

    Looks like Google fixed whatever mistake that made the recipes on the site go crazy and we are no longer trending towards a recipe site lol - I don't care though because it motivated me to spend alot of time on the site improving it and at least now the content people are looking at is not stupid and embarrassing like it was when I first got back into this like 5 years ago.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    Plus - I have a pretty bad ass recipe collection now! That section of the site is 10 thousand times better than it was before

    We now have a web designer at my job. A legit talented professional! I am going to get him to redesign the site theme. It is time.

    I got one more day of community service and then I'm free from this nonsense! I polished a cop car today for a funeral or something I guess
  • Varine Varine:
    They also were digging threw old shit at the sheriff's office and I tried to get them to give me the old electronic stuff, but they said no. They can't give it to people because they might use it to impersonate a cop or break into their network or some shit? idk but it was a shame to see them take a whole bunch of radios and shit to get shredded and landfilled

    How come you're so into recipes lately? Never saw this much interest in this topic in the old days of TH.net
  • Monovertex Monovertex:
    Hmm, how do I change my signature?
  • tom_mai78101 tom_mai78101:
    Signatures can be edit in your account profile. As for the old stuffs, I'm thinking it's because Blizzard is now under Microsoft, and because of Microsoft Xbox going the way it is, it's dreadful.

    I am not big on the recipes I am just promoting them - I use the site as a practice place promoting stuff

    @tom_mai78101 I must be blind. If I go on my profile I don't see any area to edit the signature; If I go to account details (settings) I don't see any signature area either.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    You can get there if you click the bell icon (alerts) and choose preferences from the bottom, signature will be in the menu on the left there https://www.thehelper.net/account/preferences
