Destroying headquarters

[Guile007]

Hi all,
Sorry in advance for my bad english... Just one question: How can i destroy the headquarters of the bad guys in the first or second mission of the campaign (mission where we have to find a computer in the South east of the map)? I havé research the rocket launcher and rockets but when i try to attack the camp i just die...

Thx!

Your rockets have a larger range than the enemy's turrets, so you can just run until you're close enough, fire a couple of rockets and run away.

Another strategy is to build some turrets of your own just outside of the enemy turrets' range, so they'll protect you from the creepers.

Ok thx! Good idea for the turrets coz creepers don't let me shoot my rockets... I Will try this solution!

I am also having trouble taking out the creeper turrets. I can't seem to get within range (with my rocket) without being shot back at. Are you sure the rocket has a further range than their turrets?

Your rocket launcher has greater range than their gun turrets.
But they have equal range to their rocket turrets.

They all seem to be called "battle turrets", and I can't take out a single one of them.

As mentioned above, try using turrets to hold off the creepers while you send rockets at their turrets.
The other way is to kill the creepers yourself with your smg, and send a rocket or two at their turrets/spawners in between.
Also, make sure that you are equipped with armor, it helps a lot.

Okay, I probably just suck at this type of gaming. I much prefer the defensive/strategic/planning aspect of the game.

Their turrets have a greater range than my rockets. How do I know this? While their turrets are quickly killing me, I can't shoot back at all. I have died countless times by now trying to get close enough to shoot without completely dying. I have armor.

Your rocket range is better than the range of battle turrets.
Are you aiming correctly? Did you bring your turrets to handle the creepers?

mouse over the turrets, then press space, that makes you aim at the turrets.... that might help

Damn! It doesn't run, i give up, and i tried all the week-end. I don't want an action game.
