How to stop Advanced crawling bombs with junos?

[gleaming hamlet]

😐

that's a lot of junos

OH

I misunderstood your question

[soft spire]

Air labs have some built in radar

And scout planes don't die

[gleaming hamlet]

t2 scout planes, pulsars, bulwarks iirc

[soft spire]

Or you can use Counter intrusion measure

[buoyant tinsel]

Bulwarks probably yeah right

[soft spire]

Or spam and bump into it

[buoyant tinsel]

Ticks cheaper

[gleaming hamlet]

yeah but juno

[buoyant tinsel]

The static needed to stop them is more expensive than them

You also need 3 pinpointers

[soft spire]

Not really, just run into once you know where it is.

[buoyant tinsel]

With grunt?

[soft spire]

Yeah

Or anything

[buoyant tinsel]

Yeah grunts work ig

[soft spire]

Preferably not something that the Sckuttle can trade well with

[buoyant tinsel]

But the explosion radius is too big

[soft spire]

Grunts are expendable. A few dyeing doesn't matter much.

[soft spire]

For what?

[buoyant tinsel]

Adv crawling bomb has big explosion raduis

[soft spire]

Rephrased: The Adv crawling bomb's explosion radius is too big for what?

[gleaming hamlet]

no, I don't mean use Pulsars or Bulwark to shoot them

I mean use them as indestructible radar and kill them with other things

or just buy a t2 scout plane

seaplane scout also works

[mighty dune]

Or imagine using units ik its crazy

[buoyant tinsel]

me is right

[buoyant tinsel]

Every crawiling bomb will destroy like 20 grunts stacked up together

It’s good if you spread them maybe

[fallow sorrel]

then don't stack 20 grunts together on them, you only need a few, <5 for sure

[wild scaffold]

Then bomb just rolls past them
unless you mean some units (like grunts) PLUS intrusion building

[buoyant tinsel]

Lmao they really do roll past them?

I thought they explode or uncloak when they touch

Don’t they?

Or within a certain range like the spybot

[wild scaffold]

they will uncloak but if you have too little you can just roll around
they only explode when near something if you forgot to hold fire

exploding them like that is not great at all

it makes them do half of the damage and bigger splash damage fallof

[buoyant tinsel]

They deal the same dmg when they die right

[wild scaffold]

same as when attack

[buoyant tinsel]

Yes

Or dc

[wild scaffold]

yea, so half of intended damage

[gleaming hamlet]

self-d damage > attack damage = death explosion damage

[wild scaffold]

self+d damage is like 8000 or sometihng

[gleaming hamlet]

there's a stalled PR meant to set all of these to equal

but it'd be a buff so remains to be seen whether it'll go through

[buoyant tinsel]

You just use them to kill anything

Like even thors

[wild scaffold]

i kinda liked it that "it only works when you micro it" mechanic

could also just add delay to self+d if you want to nerf it

or make it uncloak when you self+d

and then it is gonna "charge" for 3 sec

[buoyant tinsel]

It’s more of it works id you don’t micro, and op if you micro

[wild scaffold]

i didn't feel like they work without micro

like compare it to the spy xD

[buoyant tinsel]

You can combine them with spys

On land

[wild scaffold]

most of the time units that get EMPed for 20 secs gonna die, and spy has bigger radius and spy does not need a stealth field to not show up on the radar
spy is cheaper
spy not get "countered" by radar+ pinpointers

tzars and banishers usually one-shot scuttle even without pinpointers

tho i only like seen scuttle+juno once

and it looked kinda cool

[buoyant tinsel]

I died to it 5 games on strait on geo spot. At 1st I didn’t know what was going on I had to watch replay😂

[wild scaffold]

yea i guess there it is kinda nice with water...

!unit bedbug

[gleaming hamlet]

$unit bedbug

[steel crane]

https://www.beyondallreason.info/unit/corroach

[wild scaffold]

(website doesnot load for me for some reason)

[gleaming hamlet]

works for me 😐

[wild scaffold]

well that link works

but from here i can't access https://www.beyondallreason.info/ units and stuff, weird

ok so bedbug dmg is like 4000-5000?

[gleaming hamlet]

that also works for me

[wild scaffold]

whats t2 geo HP? 😄

just wondering if you can actually just use regular bedbug or tumbleweed to blow up geo

[gleaming hamlet]

3600, assumed armada

[wild scaffold]

should be able to do it faster than with a scuttle... imagine you arrive and t2 geo is not done yet

[gleaming hamlet]

I think you want to hit just after it's done though

[wild scaffold]

yea

i am just imagining bedbug or scuttle going out of the water, seeing 50% geo and going back to water "brb"

core t2 geo is 4150

[buoyant tinsel]

1 time i was reclaiming geo, and sea made 1 single shot. The geo exploded just before it was reclaimed

[finite bane]

build walls yah?

space them 1 space apart to save on metal

[buoyant tinsel]

Them got 8k dmg

[finite bane]

well they blow up the walls first

[lucid escarp]

Light mines would be one way to stop crawling bombs coming up your beach.
Would need a decent spread of them though, and still a risk that some could get through.

[buoyant tinsel]

They be spamming them💀

Mines won’t stop for long
