I was playing this guy online. He was using a alien race and I a human race, I forgot which alien race it was. He had a 3 star general attack my base. I had about 6 upgraded level 3 hornets firing on him, along with a 4 turrets(one upgraded to infantry fire) and it didn’t do any damage to the general.
Anyone know what race that might of been and what is a 3 star general exactly?
Leaders and every other unit in the game can gain veterancy or in other terms stars, and I think each star gives the unit +10% more health/damage. Stars max out at 3 and you gain stars by killing enemy units with said unit. But 3 star leaders are really effective pretty much especially if it is a hunter captain
It was either one of the Brute Brothers or Colony; Colony especially can be a pain if the person using him knows what they’re doing and utilizes healing correctly. Because I don’t believe the Shipmaster, Atriox, or Yap-Yap’s Heroes are very problematic. But I could be wrong.
Probably the Warlord. You need to play as Decimus to be able to use him. Decimus has a leader power that lets your units siphon health from units that they’re attacking. Not to mention his hero gets his own personal siphon with the tier 3 upgrade. He’s near unkillable when he’s fully upgraded and has 3 stars.
My guess would be decimus. Do you remember what type of weapon it was using? Beam would be hunter captain, hammer would be deci or voridus, sword would be shipmaster or arbiter whilst launcher type of gun would be pavium or atriox. Can’t for a minute imagine it would be yap though, but for completeness they use a needler (pink shots). If i missed any I’m sure someone can say.
My guess is that it was the colony - with beam laser and 2 skitter bots hovering near him.
I have played against a good colony leader( 3 - star ) who - using only his leader and some healers - took out my entire base with 4 upgraded turrets plus 3-4 scorpions, some hornets and quite a lot of infantry + i spent a couple of leader abilities on his leader with no effect. Some leaders become more powerful than scarab at high veterancy.

Not to mention Decimus has a leader power which increase damage without draining health. Boundless Siphon and fury are tier 4 and 5 leader powers, respectively. He has temporary versions too, but that isn’t the focus of my post. You may need to “Fight Fire with Fire”, That is, bring your own hero to the fight and counter him with that.

You may be referring to the human race as the UNSC, and the alien race as the Banished.

Does give health, gives a damage reduction. Vet 2 is 33% Damage reduction and like 25% DPS increase.

Id rather have a warlord over Captain. I mean, warlord is pretty much anti everything except air. Anti hero, check. anti tank, check, anti infantry, check. anti -Yoinking!- Scarab, check check check.

It is literally impossible to beat the warlord with your own hero, his hammer pull followed by his shockwave completely melts heroes. Don’t forget the stuns he has access to for after he pulls you into his arms!

Then exploit that weakness and send in air units. Unless your opponent has Anti Air, the warlord has now way of defending himself.

This is getting so bad. 343 better hit the warlord with a nerf on his health and damage.
Air needs a buff.
