oh thats kind of gay, i was hoping i could do something like a shield/sword or another melee weapon of my choice

You can get a 2h Hammer for the FC which is pretty decent.

daemonhammer is the best non-termi melee weapon you can get for your force commander in the campaign, for termi its the shield+thunder hammer, unless there are paired lightning claws that never dropped for me

The entire time I was playing I kept thinking, where the fuck are the dual Lightning claws. I'd wear ones that do half the damage of the Thunder Hammer/Storm Shield if they had badass animations.

Really wish you could play through the campaign again on a harder difficulty level using the squads you built up the first go around.

Morsakin · 02-28-2009, 10:01 PM

I'm just glad I got the rape-tastic Assault Cannon ("Storm of Purity"); with the current state of my squads my FC has about 1250 ranged damage with it, Avitus about 1350.

That and the campaign gets so damn easy once you get that first set of Termi armor for Thaddeus. It's akin to giving the average man a dose of PCP.

Edit: I also recommend Lightning Claws. And more worthwhile bolters.

Mimirswell · 02-28-2009, 10:29 PM

Avitus is at ~2800 ranged damage for me currently without Terminator Armor.

Nice, what weapon is he currently using? Been combing through all the optional missions but haven't found a heavy bolter anywhere close to the assault cannon.

Inconsiderable · 03-01-2009, 04:10 AM

The lovely heavy bolter of course! It includes knockback, splash and doesnt reload.

It doesn't send to Romania, and i imagine it doesn't send to other Eastern European countries. My country has been a member of the European Union almost three years already, but the freaking Amazon does not deliver !

Anyway, one question about the game. What combo do you think is better for single player captain dificulty ?

Melee FC + Thadeus + Avitus + Cyrus Or Ranged FC+ Tharkus + Avitus + Cyrus ?

orcmauler · 03-01-2009, 05:58 AM

Ranged FC is shit. I did a run-through with him full range/energy and its godawful. He tends to try to do his melee charge and then get stuck in a crouching animation in large battles, then just randomly stop attacking in others.

Dyscord · 03-01-2009, 06:46 AM

Accept our dominion.

Ranged drednaught however, is not shit. Holy shit at hellfire rounds. Nothing stands up to it. Nothing. Squads aren't just killed, they're reduced to bits and peices. Buildings instantly collapse. Walkers and vehicles are destroyed. Its amazing.

I went ranged dreadnaught as well.
Just like you said. He outdamages my ativus atm. Though I dont have that 2700 damage ativus. o.O no clue how you got that.
The cannon is instant death to anything it touches. And should anything come into melee, the ground slam is also still instant kill for any infantry. Even without the melee buffs.

bubblegumbo · 03-01-2009, 08:19 AM

My Ativus has 3137 for range damage.
Just keep doing the optional missions until you stop getting rewards, eventually you will come across a Heavy bolter called "Neverending Hail of Devastation."

I also used a chest(non Term) that added 19% more rdps and two accessories with +14% and +15%.
Maybe that's why I found the game too easy at the end.
